DOORS , WINDOWS & FITTINGS
West Fraser product application : Roofing ( OSB )
“ Evidence suggests it ’ s important to have a feelgood factor inside your home . Our positive well-being depends on frequent exposure to light , and daylight is the most powerful way , especially during these times of the pandemic , with more of us working from home and creating a home office or working zone ,” says Russell Ager , managing director of steel window and door manufacturer Crittall Windows .
“ Our homes play a big part in our sense of well-being and their design ; lighting and exposure to natural light through windows and doors really do impact . Crittall
Make light work
steel-framed windows are ideal with their inherent strength allowing large expanses of glass , elegantly slender frames and the slimmest of profiles .”
“ The hallmark of a Crittall window is the slender steel frame that is so much slimmer – and therefore admits so much more light – than alternative window systems which require far larger profiles due to the basic differences in the frame material and their relative strengths .”

Getting buildings wind and watertight is a priority on any construction site so choosing a quick , easy to install , reliable and versatile roofing system is vital . High quality roof decking or pitched roof sarking is an essential component and Oriented Strand Board ( OSB ) is now the preferred option for many . Unsurprisingly , given the product ’ s outstanding attributes , West Fraser ’ s SterlingOSB Zero OSB3 or SterlingOSB Zero T & G is frequently the first choice .
Ideal for structural use in load bearing dry or humid conditions , SterlingOSB Zero OSB3 offers great value and durability . Stronger than most softwood ply , thanks to its makeup of multiple layers of real wood strands pressed together , it is designed to withstand the toughest of conditions . Working with the boards is trouble free as they are uniform in quality with no knots , voids or delamination issues . Helping to cut waste , a range of panel sizes and thicknesses is available to suit all needs .
The boards are square-edged so butt together easily and cleanly . Panels are cut and installed on a roof using conventional roofing equipment and are easy to saw , drill , nail or plane . Nails can be driven as close as 8mm from the panel edge without causing splitting .
With all the advantages of the Sterling OSB Zero range , SterlingOSB Zero T & G is specifically designed for flat roofing and is BBA approved and fully compliant to BS 6229:2003 . The panels are consistent and machined to exact tolerances .
