EGGER UK has launched its new OSB T&G Roofing Board, a lightweight and easy to install product for use in flat roof construction.
Aimed at the UK roofing industry, EGGER OSB T&G Roofing boards offer housebuilders a durable, easy to install and sustainable solution for flat roof applications. With BBA certification, the roofing boards can be utilised by all NHBC and LABC warranty sites and are ideal for warm roof constructions on domestic or commercial projects.
Suitable for use with a wide range of waterproof coverings and roofing membranes, such as single ply, pour and roll, torch on felts, fibre glass, EPDM and more, the boards offer enhanced site flexibility. With each board only weighing 16kg, it allows for safer manual handling. With 50 boards per pack, reducing the total weight, this eliminates the risk of overloading decks, and improves distribution opportunities for harder to access areas.
Scott Wolters, Building Product Sales Director at EGGER UK commented: “We have long been established as a leading provider of sustainably sourced timber structural flooring systems, something we are incredibly proud of. We wished to expand our product portfolio to continue to meet the wider needs of construction and housebuilding projects and are delighted to be formally launching our OSB T&G Roofing Boards.
“This new product offering brings all the benefits of our standard OSB 3 boards, with 600kg/m3 density, guaranteeing performance in fire protection constructions. The boards also utilise a tongue and groove profile on all four edges, allowing for easy assembly and a reliable, watertight joint.”
As with its range of structural flooring boards, EGGER’s OSB T&G Roofing Boards provide a sustainable solution for construction projects, and are manufactured using sustainably sourced timber. Third-party Chain of Custody certification programs guarantee EGGER’s adherence to environmental and social standards. Once a board’s service life has come to an end, it can also be easily recycled using EGGER’s recycling subsidiary, EGGER Timberpak Ltd.
EGGER is also providing customers with the option to order half loads, combining the roofing boards with its structural flooring products, including EGGER P5, EGGER Peel Clean Xtra, EGGER Protect and other EGGER OSB board sizes.
