OSB Board
OSB (Oriented Strand Board) is a high-performance engineered wood product made from wood strands and adhesive binders. With its unique structure and excellent mechanical properties, OSB has become a popular choice in construction and interior design.
A Brief History of OSB:
- OSB was invented by Armin Elmendorf in California in 1963. By the late 1970s, it was introduced to the market, and by 2000, global OSB production surpassed that of plywood, marking its rise as a preferred building material.
- At Gia Khang Trading Construction Company, we provide OSB boards tailored to meet specific customer requirements, ensuring quality and versatility for various applications.
Composition of OSB:
- Primary Material: Made from large wood strands arranged in specific orientations.
- Components: 95% wood and 5% adhesive, typically Phenol Formaldehyde (PF) or Melamine Urea Formaldehyde (MUF) glue.
Key Advantages of OSB:
- Cost-Effective: Affordable compared to other engineered wood products.
- High Strength: Excellent mechanical properties, including hardness and durability.
- Screw Holding Capacity: Strong screw retention and elasticity, making it easy to work with.
- Moisture Resistance: Performs well in high-humidity environments.
- Lightweight: Easy to handle and install.
Applications of OSB:
- Flooring: Commonly used as underlayment for floors.

- Packaging: Durable enough for making shipping crates and containers.
