摘要
This report Oriented Strand Board (OSB) & Lumber (OSL) in the Pacific Rim and Europe, 2007-2012 combines market research and forecasting to provide a strategic assessment of the prospects for the Oriented Strand Board and Oriented Strand Lumber industries over the next five years.
The spectacular growth in the production and consumption of OSB as a substitute for plywood in North America and Europe over the past decade is entering a new stage of development. It is spreading to other regions and is increasingly being produced along with oriented strand lumber (OSL).
Strand products are now used for a wide range of board and lumber applications. What are the prospects for OSB and OSL over the next five years in the established markets and for expansion to new markets in Australasia, South America and Asia? How will the evolution of strand technology from board to lumber and other value added products impact on existing products such as lumber, I joists, flooring and other applications?
