Oriented strand board is a widely used, versatile engineered wood board made from waterproof, heat curing adhesives, and rectangular shaped strands of wood arranged in cross-oriented layers. It is a type engineered wood and is similar in strength and performance to plywood and resists deflection and warping. The oriented strand board market is primarily driven by increase in renovation and remodeling of older homes. In addition, new housing projects are also responsible for growth of the oriented strand board market. Since, wood-based materials are also cost-effective and environment friendly alternative to other wood and cement products, use of these materials as a replacement for building materials is on the rise. In addition, wood-based materials release fewer harmful by-products during manufacture than emission-intensive materials such as concrete, steel, or aluminum. Therefore, oriented strand board or wood-based materials are expected to minimize gas emissions. In addition, adhesive/resins used in strand board are environment friendly and stable and do not generate greenhouse gases. This has led to increase in use of engineered wood and oriented strand board by builders and architects. Moreover, rise in construction related activities globally is expected propel demand for oriented strand boards, which is expected to provide lucrative opportunities for growth of the global oriented strand board market.

Executive Summary
The global oriented strand board market size was valued at $25.6 billion in 2020, and is estimated to reach $44.3 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 5.4% from 2021 to 2030. The oriented strand board market forecast from 2020 to 2030.However, fluctuation in raw material prices acts as restraint for the oriented strand board industry. Similarly, plastic laminates also hamper sales of oriented strand boards. In addition, outbreak of the COVID-19 has led to halt in construction and manufacturing activities across the globe. Halt in logistics services has led to halt in the packaging industry, which, in turn, hinders growth of the oriented strand board industry. However, oriented strand board market trends are gradually back on track and vaccine discovery is expected to lead to recovery of the oriented strand board industry. Further, urbanization of major cities in Asia-Pacific and LAMEA is expected to lead to rise in construction activities and increase in demand for oriented products in the market.
In addition, oriented strand board is used for flooring, parting walls, and roofs to provide luxurious interior for transport systems.For instance, it was announced in November 2020 that Toyota Camry Hybrid will be upgraded with design and safety features.
