Global Fire Retardant OSB (Oriented Strand Board) Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029

Global Fire Retardant OSB (Oriented Strand Board) Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029

Fire Retardant OSB is a kind of oriented strand board treated with special flame-retardant chemicals during the manufacturing process, which makes it have better fire resistance based on the advantages of the oriented strand board itself. The flame-retardant treatment forms a chemical barrier to limit the spread of flames with the wood. Proprietary flame retardants not only exist on the surface but also penetrate deeply into the wood, providing durable, safe, and long-lasting protection.

Market Overview:

The latest research study on the global Fire Retardant OSB (Oriented Strand Board) market finds that the global Fire Retardant OSB (Oriented Strand Board) market reached a value of USD 112.83 million in 2022. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 196.52 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 9.69% during the forecast period.

Mainly used in Walls and Roofing

Fire Retardant OSB mainly focuses on Walls and Roofing. The application of Flooring is relatively small. Since the price of plywood flooring substrate has always been in the range that the floor manufacturer can afford, the floor manufacturer There is no motivation to replace the base material, and the technical equipment for slotting the oriented strand board in the floor manufacturing process is relatively high, and the demand for this of the floor companies is suppressed to a certain extent.

Potential needs to be tapped

The penetration rate of Fire Retardant OSB in the Asia-Pacific market is not enough, and the market for Fire Retardant OSB is still relatively immature. As an important strategic position of the construction industry in the Asia-Pacific market, with the development of urbanization, the demand potential for Fire Retardant OSB will remain to be developed. China is advancing and experiencing the continuous process of urbanization, and the urbanization rate of the permanent population has increased to 65%. As the demand for urban living space has increased due to urbanization, the market share of Fire Retardant OSB needs to be further expanded. How to open up the Asia-Pacific market and seize an important market position in the Asia-Pacific market is a challenge that companies need to think about.

Region Overview:

In global comparison, a significant portion of the revenue was generated in North America (43.82% in 2021).

Company Overview

Louisiana-Pacific is one of the major players operating in the Fire Retardant OSB (Oriented Strand Board) market, holding a share of 39.21% in 2022.

Louisiana-Pacific

Louisiana-Pacific Corporation manufactures building materials and engineered wood products in the United States, Canada, Chile, and Brazil. Louisiana Pacific products include oriented strand board sheathing, flooring, radiant barrier panels, siding and trim, i-joists, and laminated veneer lumber.

Kronospan

Kronospan LLC manufactures and distributes wood-based panels. The Company offers products such as melamine-faced and lacquered panels, chemicals, worktops and window sills, wall and ceiling, paper, flooring, and betonyp building boards.

Segmentation Overview:

As for product types, the By Flame Retardant Coatings segment held the largest market share in 2021.

By Flame Retardant Additives

The FR additive (mostly liquid) is mixed with the strands after the flaking machine or during the blending process prior to glue resin and wax being added and prior to the mat-forming and hot pressing process. Flame retardant additives are added in large quantities during the panel production process. The additives can take a dry or liquid form and are free of halogens.

By Flame Retardant Coatings

The FR surface coating is made after the hot pressing process on the master-board or cut-to-size OSB panel. These coatings have the appearance of traditional paints and varnishes, comply with building and fire codes, and give the substrate rated flame spread protection.

Application Overview:

In the Fire Retardant OSB (Oriented Strand Board) market, 38.42% of the total value was generated through the Walls segment by application in 2021.

Walls

Fire Retardant OSB can be used for internal and external walls of buildings. Oriented Strand Board (OSB) has a greater load-bearing capacity and can meet fire protection requirements.

Roofing

Flame-retardant OSB is used in the roof, and the chemical formula contained in it helps to slow down the spread of fire and can create a safe roof that meets fire protection regulations.

Flooring

Fire Retardant OSB can be used as a floor, bringing sufficient fire safety, while still having sufficient moisture resistance and strength.
