Oriented Strand Board (OSB) Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2021-2031
Oriented strand board (OSB) is type of engineered wood, which is manufactured in cross-oriented layers to form strong, stiff, structural panels

Oriented Strand Board (OSB): Introduction

  • Oriented strand board (OSB) is type of engineered wood, which is manufactured in cross-oriented layers to form strong, stiff, structural panels. Structured panels are formed by the composition of thin rectangular-shaped wood strands arranged in layers at right angles. OSB is also known as sterling board, flake board, and aspenite. This board is bonded with waterproof adhesives and is also treated with sealants to guard against moisture penetration during shipment. The construction industry widely uses ODB in a wide range of products from squeak-free floors to solid wall and roofs sheathing. It is engineered for strength and designed and can be employed in applications such as residential and non-residential. OSB has broadened its position in new markets such as materials-handling, structural insulated panel, do-it yourself interior projects, wood I-joist products, and a few industrial applications (furniture and trailer liners), due to its enhanced properties and performance.

Key Drivers and Restraints of Global Oriented Strand Board (OSB) Market

  • The OSB market has developed significantly in the recent years. This can be primarily ascribed to high performance and increasing recognition of eco-friendly products globally. OSB plays an important role in addressing several issues associated with mechanical performance and resistance to moisture. These boards are versatile, tough, and inexpensive. Rise in usage of OSB in the packaging industry for food and beverages, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and others is expected to propel the OSB market during the forecast period.
  • Increase in demand for strong and stiff structural wood-based panel products is expected to create significant opportunities for the OSB market. In the construction industry, OSB is used for floors and roofs, walls, doors, staircases, columns, and beams. This is expected to drive the demand for OSB during the forecast period.
