OSB is a strong, durable wood panel which is increasingly used throughout Europe in the Offsite construction sector. It is manufactured by compressing precisely engineered strands of wood with gluing resins at high temperature to create a strong and versatile panel.

OSB with an integrated panel finishing line including cut to size and packaging operations complete with ancillary works.
The chosen equipment must conform to best practice design principles and all relevant European legislation. It is anticipated that order placement will be in the timeframe of Q3 2011, with final project construction completion by Q1 2013.
As SmartPly is not in a position to specify the precise nature of the equipment required, we are employing a competitive dialogue procedure for this procurement.
