State Right-to-Know
While freshly pressed and/or depending of the environmental conditions (temperature
and relative humidity) a very small level of formaldehyde may be released from the
panels.
Chamber tests performed on OSB panels and conducted by the APA Engineered
Association have demonstrated that the formaldehyde level from the off-gas of these type
of panels were negligible (below 0.1 ppm).
However, the user should ensure that its specific mechanical process, handling, storage,
and ventilation conditions will not contribute to formaldehyde emission exceeding the safe
threshold level.
