Bison board (or Bison panel) is a type of construction board used in building and interior work.
What it is
It’s a cement-bonded particle board
Made mainly from:
~62% cement
~28% wood particles (like eucalyptus/poplar)
The wood is chemically treated and mixed with cement to form a strong sheet.
đŸ‘‰ In simple terms:
It combines the strength of cement with the workability of wood.
Key features
Strong and durable
Fire-resistant
Water & weather resistant
Termite-proof
Good sound insulation
Can be cut and shaped like wood
Common uses

Flooring and roofing
Prefab structures
Why people use it
Because it’s:
More durable than plywood in harsh conditions
Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use
Relatively easy to install
If you want, I can compare Bison board vs plywood vs gypsum board—that’s usually what people are deciding between.
