Essex joinery specialists have been making use of West Fraser’s SterlingOSB Zero boards for a new housing development near Chelmsford<\/h2>\n

Essex Pitch UK\u00a0Ltd<\/a> was set up 15 years ago by a group of highly skilled carpenters and joiners.<\/p>\n

The company offers expertise to clients in executing structural carpentry, loft conversions and other complex roof work, including mansards, dormers and hip-to-gable conversions.<\/p>\n

Net carbon negative and cost-effective<\/h3>\n

The company’s commitment to sustainability<\/a> is one of the reasons it chose West Fraser’s SterlingOSB Zero boards<\/a> for the new housing project.<\/p>\n

A director of the company commented: \u201cWe choose to use SterlingOSB Zero because it is net carbon negative and more cost-effective<\/a> than the alternatives.<\/p>\n

“It is also a heavier, stronger material than other OSB boards. The boards are versatile as well as being available in larger sizes when we require them, and we definitely intend using SterlingOSB Zero and other products from the West Fraser range in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

On a project at Stock, near Chelmsford, Essex Pitch\u2019s craftsmen carried out the in-situ construction of new houses.<\/p>\n

A total of 150 standard-size sheets have been supplied by Brentwood Timber Supplies and have been used as the sheathing to the exterior studs which form the load-carrying building envelope.<\/p>\n

Essex Pitch has also purchased quantities of CaberDek from another West Fraser stockist, PGR Timber Supplies, for all of the flooring.<\/p>\n

SterlingOSB Zero T&G presents specifiers with precision-engineered tongue and groove boards<\/h3>\n

They are typically specified for pitched or flat roof decking and timber frame construction,<\/a> as well as for flooring and other applications.<\/p>\n

The ‘Zero’ in the product name\u00a0means no formaldehyde is added during its manufacture, encouraging its specification on improved health and safety grounds.<\/p>\n

Available in thicknesses of 18 and 22mm, the 2400mm length boards come in widths of 625 and 1200mm.<\/p>\n

They are strong enough to meet most load-bearing applications, are BBA approved and recognized by NHBC Technical.<\/p>\n

SterlingOSB Zero T&G also bears the coveted UKTFA Q-mark, a quality certification which provides a benchmark for manufacturers, and offers confidence to designers and end-users across the UK.<\/p>\n
