OSE 40 / 60
OSE/BOARD is a modern building board made from cereal straw by an unique
method of extrusion, using heat and pressure.
The boards are produced in a range of thicknesses, widths, lengths, and
densities. A typical board is 2400mm long, 1200mm wide, 58mm thick. and weighs 60kg.

WHY OSE/BOARD
OSE/Board conforms to British Standard 4046 - compressed strawboard.
OSE has a number of properties valuable in construction, including thermalinsulation, fire resistance, sound attenuation, and structural strength.
Uses include external wall panels (SIPS), roofing, flooring, ceilings, linings,
partitions and doors. All these applications have been certified and used over many years.

CURRENT MATERIAL USAGE
The majority of our raw material today is burned in fields (3.5% of Global the Carbon Emissions come from this)
​
We creating a new global standard for climate positive building by assisting the industry in shifting over to new innovative materials and concepts. The industry needs to rethink the future of building.
THE SOLUTIONS
The production of OSE / boards are a local low energy production that benefits the local farmers to add revenue instead of emitting pollutants into the atmosphere.
Climate change is already happening: temperatures are rising, drought and wild fires are starting to occur more frequently, rainfall patterns are shifting, glaciers and snow are melting and the global mean sea level is rising. To mitigate climate change, we must reduce or prevent the emissions linked to human activities.
The global building and construction industry accounts for 38% of emissions and there is an urgent need for a strategy to aggressively reduce energy demand in the built environment and implement materials strategies that reduce lifecycle carbon and create planet positive opportunities.

80 YEARS OF TESTING
No other proprietary building material has so many possible and proven uses
in house construction. OSE housing lends itself to factory production, is a fast dry assembly system, utilises structural insulation, greatly reduces the carbon footprint, and has an outstanding environmental profile.
