MDF 101: What are MDF Panels?

MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard) is an engineered material made from wood fibers, combined together with resins and adhesives under intense heat and pressure. The result is a conventional and versatile finishing material that rivals that of the traditional ones. In terms of design and flexibility, MDF Panels got your back. Before buying MDF Panels be informed of the following advantages:

Advantages:

Each MDF sheet is sanded down to achieve a smooth surface for painting, laminating, and customizing. The preparation is also quick and easy which makes it all the more feasible to use. Its composition of wood fibers and resins allow a uniform appearance for the whole sheet, which ensures uniformity once the sheet is painted.

3. Impact Resistant

Like most construction materials, the key to a long lasting panel is how it is used and installed. There are different MDF Panels equipped with certain features to adapt to certain applications. Ensure that non-moisture resistant panels are not installed in moisture prone areas like bathrooms, kitchens, and exterior areas where it might be exposed to high humidity. If you need MDFs for exterior applications, make sure to use MDFs variations that are suitable for outdoor use.

The care and maintenance of MDF Panels is quick and easy, would not require a lot of materials to use, and can be cleaned with materials that you can readily find at home. To clean, use a clean and dry cloth to wipe the panels of its dirt and grimes. Do not use hash cleaning agents to ensure the panels’ long-term use.
