Why would I try Trubord?
Trubord’s resin formulation and quality protocol comes directly from our very successful t&g sub-floor brand – TruFlor. Product manufactured using this standard have been proven in the market place and have been overwhelmingly endorsed by builders. This new protocol has been implemented at all our mills and Trubord is now available to all major markets. These standards result in swell properties as good as or better compared to other leading standard OSB brands. There are no core voids and the panel will not delaminate.
