OSB is a material with favorable mechanical properties that make it particularly suitable for load-bearing applications in construction. It is now more popular than plywood, commanding 66% of the structural panel market. The most common uses are as sheathing in walls, flooring, and roof decking.

OSB is considered more environmentally friendly than plywood because smaller, younger trees may be used because of the shredding process.
