    fibre composite - Fibreboard (MDF)

Fibreboard (MDF) is manufactured in a "dry process" with a synthetic adhesive. Boards are categorised according to their density: high density fibreboard (HDF) with a density of ≥ 800 kg/m³, light MDF with a density of ≤ 650 kg/m³ and ultra light MDF with a density of ≤ 550 kg/m³. By changing the composition of the synthetic binder or by incorporation of other additives enhanced properties can be provided. Properties such as fire resistance, resistance against biological attack and moisture resistance can be altered. Vapour permeable fibreboards are a special product within the range of MDF. Moisture can easily pass through the permeable boards to the outside. Often tongue and grove profiles on 2 or 4 sides of the board, simplify installation of these panels in practice.
