What this product does

  1. 1
    Uniform fibre

    No grain direction, so a profile cuts the same in every direction

  2. 2
    Density range

    650–900 kg/m³, with HDF at the top for a harder face

  3. 3
    Machines to a clean edge

    Which is why it takes a routed profile and a sprayed finish

  4. 4
    Interior only

    Not structural and not for exterior service

Description

MDF and HDF in 1220 × 2440 mm and larger formats up to 1830 × 3660 mm, from 2 mm to 30 mm, made from fine wood fibres bonded under heat and pressure. Density runs from around 650 kg/m³ at the MDF end to 900 kg/m³ for HDF.

The uniform fibre structure is the reason both grades are used: there is no grain direction, so a profile cuts the same way in every direction and the edge machines clean. That is what makes MDF the natural choice for routed and painted work — a moulded panel, a profiled door face, a sprayed carcass — and it is a property plywood does not share, because a plywood edge tears depending on the direction of the cut. HDF earns its place where the face has to be harder or the panel thinner for the same stiffness: door skins, laminate carriers, floor underlay. Both are interior panels and neither is structural. The edge is the weak point in a damp room, which is why the moisture-resistant grade still needs its edges sealed. Emission class is decided by the market you ship to, so it is worth stating the destination rather than defaulting to E1 when the requirement may be E0 or CARB P2.

Confirm the density grade, the thickness and the emission class against the destination market, and tell us if the panel will be routed so the grade can be matched to the profile.

Where it is used

Painted panelling and routed profiles

A void-free core that machines and takes paint without grain

Cabinet doors and drawer fronts

Flat, stable and consistent in thickness across a run

Display and exhibition work

Fast to machine and finish on a short build programme

Flooring cores

HDF where a harder face and better screw-holding are needed

Frequently asked

What is the minimum order?

1 × 20ft container, mixed across products where the mix suits the project. A sample box can be arranged before the first container.

Can I see a sample before ordering?

Yes. Send the product and the size you are specifying, and we will confirm the sample and the lead time for it.

When is HDF the right call rather than MDF?

Where the face has to be harder or the panel thinner for the same stiffness — a door skin, a laminate carrier, a floor underlay. MDF is the better choice for routed and painted work, because it machines cleanly and holds a profile.

Why does MDF hold a routed edge so well?

Because there is no grain direction and the fibre is uniform, so a profile cuts the same in every direction. A plywood or a solid timber edge will tear or splinter depending on the direction of the cut.

Is it suitable for a bathroom?

Standard MDF is not. Use the moisture-resistant grade, and even then the edges need sealing, because the edge is where water gets in.

What emission class should I specify?

It depends on the market you are shipping to. Tell us the destination and the requirement and we will confirm the class, rather than quoting E1 by default when CARB P2 or E0 may be what is actually needed.
