A Guide to OSB Site Hoarding
MEDITE SMARTPLY
The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 demonstrates the duty of care that all construction companies and site managers are responsible for, which is to take all reasonable steps to ensure that both employees and the public are safe from construction work hazards.
Hoarding is a crucial part of this, shielding site workers from outside debris and protecting the public from construction work.

Flame Retardant Wood Panels - Part 3 Product Testing
MEDITE SMARTPLY
The performance of wood-based panels in fire can be greatly enhanced by the addition of a flame retardant during manufacture. This is the safest and most effective treatment method, and the certification and specification process is clear and simple. Flame retardants can also be applied by a third-party treater by post-impregnation or by applying flame retardant coatings to the panel’s surface. However, this process is much more complex and difficult to maintain the highest standards of quality assurance and certification. In all cases the product must be independently tested and certified to provide evidence of the level of fire protection claimed.
Flame Retardant Wood Panels - Part 4 Specification
MEDITE SMARTPLY
Where flame retardant wood-based panel products
are used in a building, it is vital that they provide long-term, predictable fire protection backed by independent certification.
