DESCRIPTION

MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard) is engineered board produced from resin bonded wood fibers under high pressure and heat. MDF is non-load-bearing product for interior use in dry conditions. Sanded to give a very fine surface, MDF is suitable for different coatings – veneering, laminating, painting and varnishing. Kronospan MDF can be used as a building material for a substitute for timber in non-load-bearing walls, ceilings, partitions etc.

This grade of Moisture Resistant MDF contains resins which make it more appropriate for use in areas of high humidity such as bathrooms, kitchens & laundry rooms. As its’ name suggests, this MDF is NOT suitable for use in wet conditions as it will swell but to a lesser extent than Standard (typically brown) MDF. Green dye is added for identification purposes only.
