FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is OSB3 and how is it different from regular OSB?

OSB3 (Oriented Strand Board Type 3) is a structural-grade board manufactured to EN 300 standards. Unlike standard OSB, OSB3 is specifically engineered for load-bearing use in humid conditions, making it suitable for roofing, flooring, and external sheathing where moisture resistance is essential.

Can these boards be used outside?

Yes, OSB3 boards are moisture-resistant and can be used in external applications such as sheds, hoardings, and roofing. However, if exposed directly to the elements (like rain), the boards should be sealed or painted and protected with appropriate waterproofing or cladding.

What’s the difference between 9mm, 11mm, and 18mm boards?


– Lightweight, ideal for linings, signs, van walls, and temporary hoardings.


– A good general-purpose board for roofing, shed walls, and sheathing.


– Heavy-duty strength for subfloors, lofts, racking, and permanent structures.

Check the comparison table above to see which thickness best suits your project.

Can I cut and drill OSB3 boards easily?

Yes. OSB3 is easy to work with using standard woodworking tools. It cuts cleanly, holds screws well, and can also be nailed or bonded with panel adhesive.

Are these OSB boards suitable for flooring?

18mm OSB3 is the most suitable thickness for flooring applications, including loft floors, subfloors, and decking. It offers the necessary rigidity and load-bearing capacity to prevent flexing or squeaking.

Do the boards come treated or unfinished?

The boards are untreated with a smooth, unsanded finish. If you're using them in an exposed area or for decorative purposes, we recommend priming, painting, or sealing the surface.

Is OSB3 eco-friendly?

Yes. Most OSB3 boards are FSC® or PEFC certified, meaning they are produced from responsibly sourced timber. Additionally, OSB production makes efficient use of wood strands and offcuts, making it more sustainable than some traditional plywoods.

How should I store the boards before installation?

Store OSB boards flat and dry, ideally indoors or under cover. Avoid contact with water and ensure adequate ventilation to prevent moisture absorption or warping.

Do you offer delivery and how are the boards packaged?

Yes. We offer nationwide kerbside delivery across mainland UK. Boards are securely packaged, typically palletised or wrapped, to ensure they arrive in top condition and ready for use on-site.
