MDF Boards and Sheets. -Medium Density Fiber Board

Product Details:

MDF is a composite wood product traditionally formed by breaking down softwood into wood fibers, often in a defibrator, combining it with wax and a synthetic resin binder such as urea formaldehyde resins (UF) or other suitable bonding system, and forming panels by applying high temperature and pressure.

MDF is generally denser than plywood. It is made up of separated fibres but can be used as a building material similar in application to plywood. It is stronger and denser than particle board.
