The resins used to make OSB have prompted concerns about the possibility of it emitting volatile organic compounds like formaldehyde. Urea-formaldehyde is more harmful than urea-formaldehyde and should be avoided in the house. Products containing phenol-formaldehyde are estimated to be relatively safer. Isocyanate resins, which do not incorporate formaldehyde and are deemed nonvolatile when cured, are used in some newer forms of OSB, referred to as new-generation OSB panels. Several manufacturers compound the wood chips with a variety of borate chemicals that are harmful to termites, wood-boring insects, molds, and fungi but not to mammals in low concentrations.

The OSB market is anticipated to benefit from a rise in the demand for rigid and strong structural wood-based panel products. OSB is used in the construction sector for floors, roofs, walls, doors, stairwells, columns, and beams. During the forecast period, this is likely to enhance demand for OSB. In recent years, the OSB market has grown dramatically.
