As the No 1 supplier of engineered wood panels to the UK construction and housebuilding market, West Fraser (formerly known as Norbord) has always been committed to supporting customers in a variety of ways.
The combination of a downloadable checklist for housebuilders and an interactive product guide is just the tool needed for specifying the right panel product in all sorts of applications.
Housebuilders can download a checklist which will help in the selection of the perfect product from floor to roof. The checklist is just one of many resources available on the West Fraser website designed especially for the housebuilder.
The housebuilders’ page includes a fully interactive product guide to download, details of projects using West Fraser’s popular boards, answers to frequently asked questions and samples and brochures to order. The guide is already proving to be an invaluable online resource for housebuilders, specifiers and architects. A simple click on the tabs at the side of the guide opens up the chosen product, application or technical information. Whatever the project, the easy-to-navigate guide makes choosing the right product simple. The guide contains all the information needed on panels in the SterlingOSB Zero, CaberFloor and CaberWood MDF portfolios, including detailed technical product data and installation advice. In addition to this, West Fraser’s booklet highlights different applications, including roofing, flooring, walling, timber frames, hoarding, shopfitting, and furniture among others such as moulding and packing.
The guide, which also encompasses contact information for general enquiries and technical expertise, can be downloaded from the housebuilders’ page on West Fraser’s website or, if a paper copy of the guide is preferred, this can be ordered on the website too!
All West Fraser panel products produced in the UK are manufactured in mills that have obtained the coveted environmental ISO 14001 accreditation. Responsibly sourced, the panels are FSC-certified and created from locally grown timber, cutting embodied carbon from transportation.
