Particle Board

Particle Board, also known as chipboard, is an engineered wood product. It is manufactured from wood particles such as wood chips, shavings, or even saw dust. A synthetic resin or other suitable bonding agent is combined with the particles to create the product. Particle board is more uniform and denser than typical wood or plywood.

MDF

Medium-Density Fibreboard (MDF) is similar to Particle Board in that it is created from small wood particles, pressed together with wax and a binding agent through high temperature and pressure to form sheets. MDF however has a typical density of 600-800 kg/m³.

Veneer Core

Veneer-Core products are created from thin slices of wood which are glued onto core panels. These core panels can be wood, particle board, or MDF. The veneer sheets, called flitches, are glued together with the grains at right angles to adjacent layers, to give the product strength.
