OSB Plywood 18mm – 2440 x 1220mm

About this item:
The OSB Board 18mm – 2440 x 1220mm available at DISCOUNT BUILDING SUPPLIES Ltd. is a heavy-duty, robust panel designed for structural and load-bearing applications. OSB (Oriented Strand Board) is made by compressing layers of wood strands with waterproof resin adhesives, creating a stable, reliable, and cost-effective sheet material. At 18mm thickness, it provides excellent strength and rigidity, making it suitable for flooring, roofing, decking, wall sheathing, and general construction projects.

Thanks to its engineered design, OSB offers a consistent density across the entire panel, reducing the risk of splitting. Manufactured from sustainable timber sources, OSB is also an environmentally friendly alternative to standard Board, delivering both performance and value.
