FAQs
1. What does TG4 mean?
TG4 stands for **Tongue and Groove on all four edges**. This interlocking design helps each board connect securely to the next, creating a tight, stable fit and reducing movement once installed.
2. Can OSB 3 TG4 be used for flooring in humid areas?
Yes. OSB 3 TG4 is specifically engineered for **load-bearing use in humid or damp environments**, making it suitable for floors in kitchens, bathrooms, and loft spaces with proper ventilation.
3. Do I need to leave a gap between boards when fitting?
Because of the **TG4 interlocking design**, the boards naturally maintain the correct spacing when joined. However, it’s recommended to leave a small expansion gap around the perimeter of the room to allow for natural movement.
