FESTIVE FIFTY: BMJ’s top products of 2019
Nordbord’s SterlingOSB expand zero-added formaldehyde range SterlingOSB Zero 3, SterlingOSB Zero Tongue and Groove, SterlingOSB Zero - SiteCoat, Fire Solutions and StrongFix. It is a precision-engineered OSB3 board for structural use in load-bearing and challenging conditions. BBA approved and designed for humid conditions, it now contains zero added formaldehyde and is unique
in the market by being the only ZAF OSB manufactured in the UK. Unlike traditional oriented strand board (OSB) containing urea- formaldehyde (UF) or melamine-urea-formaldehyde (MUF) binders, the SterlingOSB Zero family uses a methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (poly-urethane MDI) resin to bind the thousands of strands that make up each board. The pMDI binder cures at a lower temperature than UF/MUF resins so less heat energy is consumed during manufacture. It is also safer to produce since pMDI resin uses water as a catalyst in the curing process; UF/MUF resins need the addition of ammonium nitrate – an explosive chemical – to harden.

exterior standalone wearing surface.
