The activity generating the emissions is market for oriented strand board. The Reference Product is oriented strand board. The product oriented strand board (OSB) represents an engineered wood product. OSB is a structural panel, consisting of a sheet material in which rather long strands of wood are bonded together with a synthetic resin adhesive. The strands are orientated in a particular direction in the two outer layers of the panel, and sometimes also in all three layers. OSB varies in colour from a light straw colour to a medium brown depending on the wood species, resin system and pressing conditions. Waterproof and boil proof resin binders are combined with the strands to improve internal strength, rigidity and moisture resistance. OSBs are made from wood strands, flaked from round wood. OSB has various applications in construction projects such as wall sheeting, roof sheeting, and subfloors. Because its engineered, OSB can be custom manufactured to meet specific requirements in thickness, density, panel size, surface texture, strength and rigidity. OSB is also highly workable, making it easy to saw, drill, nail, plane, file, glue, paint and sand. OSB is also used as concrete shuttering or framework and for high-quality and high specification packaging. OSB is also used for applications such as furniture manufacturing, vehicle and wagon interiors, shutters and fences. The Reference Product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is market activity. Please refer to the ecoinvent documentation for full details: https://ecoquery.ecoinvent.org/3.12/cutoff/dataset/22993/documentation
