What to use for interior shed lining?

I'm building a small shed, exterior walls are corrugated steel. I'm thinking of interior lining of 6mm OSB boards. Osb seems to be small bits of wood glued together. I'm wondering if this is suitable for inside lining or is it likely to fall to bits in time?

Re: Interior shed lining.

Hello @Bondy2

 

Thank you for sharing your question about lining your shed with OSB board. I suggest putting builder's plastic on your shed walls before mounting the OSB board. This will at least protect the board from condensation and make it last longer. You can also paint the inside face of the board as an extra form of protection.

 

Here is a fantastic example of a steel-framed studio lined in OSB - Lining steel-framed studio with Gyprock and OSB by @DIYgals. It came out so good they even lined their kitchen cabinets with it - OSB kitchen cabinet doors by @DIYgals. If protected properly the OSB boards should work nicely inside your shed.

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
