Actually I need a translation into Italian, but a translation into English would help me as well. It's about the packaging of wood-based boards.

Explanation:

chipboard crosser

As far as I know 'strö' has no plural but is an uncountable.

To 'strö' is to create spaces between planks, boards or similar by putting small 3rd rate laths 90 degrees to the planks/boards in order to allow air to enter into the created space.
