MDF/HDF (Medium/High Density Fiberboard) boards are a type of wooden board made of finely ground wood fibers and resin, which is then pressed under high pressure and temperature. The process of producing MDF boards begins with shredding the wood into fibers, which are then dried and mixed with resin. After that, the mixture is pressed into slabs, which are cut to the appropriate dimensions. The panels can be further processed, such as sanding or lamination, in order to achieve the desired surface structure and appearance.
MDF boards are known for their uniform density and smooth surface, which makes them ideal for processing and application in various projects. Unlike chipboard, MDF has a finer structure, which enables more precise cutting and shaping. MDF boards are also less prone to splitting and cracking during processing.
The application of MDF boards is wide. They are most often used in the manufacture of furniture, kitchen cabinets, doors, shelves, and in decorative elements and coverings. Thanks to their smooth surface, they are ideal for varnishing and veneering, which achieves an aesthetically appealing and elegant final appearance. MDF panels are also popular in interiors due to their versatility and affordable price.
