• Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF) is widely used in the manufacturing of furniture, kitchen cabinets, door parts, mouldings, millwork and laminate flooring
• MDF is a composite panel product typically consisting of cellulosic fibers combined with a synthetic resin or other suitable bonding system and joined together under heat and pressure - additives may be introduced during manufacturing to impart additional characteristics
• The surface of MDF is flat, smooth, uniform, and dense
• The homogeneous density profile of MDF allows intricate and precise machining and finishing techniques for superior finished products
• Stability and strength are important assets of MDF, which can be machined into complex patterns that require precise tolerances
• The American National Standard for Medium Density Fiberboard (ANSI A208.2) is the North American industry voluntary standard - It classifies MDF by physical and mechanical properties and identifies product grades
• Specifications identified in the Standard include physical and mechanical properties, dimensional tolerances and formaldehyde emission limits
