LUXEMBOURG – OSB Next Generation is not just a new product developed by Kronospan, it is a change in their philosophy of creating OSB panels.

For the first time the Company is introducing recycled wood into the production process, as well as incorporating a new system of drying wood strands at low temperature, which dramatically reduces VOCs.

To achieve this innovation Kronospan used its wealth of experience and knowledge in sustainable production and recycling technologies.

In addition, to make this project possible, Kronospan Luxembourg invested in a completely new OSB line, new facilities and cutting edge equipment.

The Company implemented a whole new concept not just of producing OSB lines but of building factories in general. All with one ultimate goal – to create a high quality product that meets OSB standards while respecting the environment and our natural resources.

“Every new generation brings a new way of looking at the world. Kronospan believes that staying true to its core values and enriching and implementing them in everything it does is a key factor in future success,” Kronospan explained.

“We’ve created OSB Next Generation to meet the demands of the market, but also to fulfil the needs of the end-consumers and future generations. With OSB Next Generation we create a high performance product using fewer natural resources, reuse what is no longer needed, produce a 100% recyclable product, add value to society and respect the gifts and needs of nature”, Kronospan added.
