The heavily-populated Vancouver area — last bas- tion of support for the-ex- tensive use of plywood in residential construction. — is moving rapidly to the use of manufactured panel, particu- larly oriented strand. board. “If you can't sell coal in Newcastle, you're in trou- ble.” said Ron Longstaffe, executive vice president at Canfor Corp., referring to Vancouver's status as the hub of a-plywood trade that dominated North American house. construction for dec- ades. Demand for the new prod- uct is so heavy that, ac- cording to one Vancouver re- tailer, there's a wait of 30 to 60 days to get orders filled. Oriented strand board is a waferboard-type panel, that eets most of the strength and durability requirements of plywood, and: sells con- sistently at 10 per cent less than the spruce plywood it ' competes with. ‘The manufacturing process takes almost any tree spec- ies, (aspert- is the most common) and ‘cuis it ‘into strands about the size of a placed perpendicular to each other in three ‘layers, and glued with waterproof glue.

I've had to turn orders down because I can't, get. enough.” Bailey said he thinks the growing use of the new product spells the end of ply- wood for use in sheathing and -roofing. Dan Young, production manager at the Edson plant, said he too, feels plywood will have a tough time coming back. “There are some things that people will always use plywood for,” he said. “But not for the construction uses we are aiming at.” Young says Pelican's mod- ern machinery, low cost re- source, and low labor com- ponent (the plant employs 140, about half what an equivalent plywood mill would employ) give the ori- he run ented strand board a big edge competing with ply- wood.
