Why choose to use MDF?

Density board, also known as MDF(medium-density fiberboard), is a type of board. A widely used raw material for construction materials and furniture. The surface of the MDF is smooth, with a uniform texture, making it easy to process. Many people widely love the MDF due to these advantages.

1. Cost is economical

Compared with natural wood, the raw materials for MDF are more widely available, and the price is lower. Manufacturers mainly make it from wood fibers, tree bark, and other by-products of wood processing. Mechanical separation and some chemical treatments transform these inexpensive materials into boards. The standardized and industrialized production process further reduces the cost of the density board.

Therefore, for many large-scale furniture manufacturing and decoration projects, density board can better control costs. For example, when making wardrobes, using MDF can save 30% to 50% compared to natural wood. This is very appealing.

2. Excellent processing performance

The density board has a uniform texture and a tight structure, without the natural wood's patterns and knots. This makes the processing of the density board much easier.

You can process the density board more easily through sawing, drilling, engraving, or milling operations. When carving complex patterns, the density board shows design details better. It does this without breaking or chipping.

The texture of the density board is softer. You can use regular woodworking tools to work with it. This makes processing easier and lowers the equipment needs. For furniture manufacturers and decoration workers, it can improve production efficiency and shorten the construction period.

3. Excellent surface effect

The surface of the density board is smooth and flat, making it easier for subsequent processing. You can adapt the edges to various decorative surfaces, such as melamine surfaces, wood veneers, or paints.

The melamine-coated density board is wear-resistant, scratch-resistant, and easy to clean. The natural wood veneer-coated density board shows realistic wood grain textures.

It is also attractive and practical. The density board with paint spraying has a shiny finish, which enhances the furniture's texture. In addition, we also apply other customized processes to the density board.

4. Strong dimensional stability

Humidity and temperature can affect natural wood. This can cause it to shrink, expand, or change shape. They make the density board using high heat and pressure. This process makes its internal structure stable.

Also, it is less affected by changes in the environment. Even in environments with high humidity or dryness, it can maintain better stability. The density board can have other features too. These include moisture-proof, flame-retardant, and termite-proof options.

5. Enhanced Environmental Performance

With the continuous advancement of technology, many high-quality density boards nowadays have outstanding performance in environmental protection. Manufacturers use low formaldehyde-emitting adhesives, meeting the consumers' demands for a healthy furniture environment.

In conclusion, particleboard is popular with furniture makers. It is low-cost, easy to process, has a smooth surface, and performs well. Particleboard has indeed become an indispensable part of our daily household furniture.
