Medium Density Fibreboard or MDF is one of the most versatile of all the wood-based panel products available today. It is made from wood or other lignocellulosic material, which is refined into fibres and then reconstituted with a resin binder at elevated temperatures to form panels. MDF is often used for as a wood substitute in various applications, including furniture, interiors, modular kitchens, cupboards, chairs and benches, to name a few. MDF boards are particularly a boon for those who are looking to experiment and utilise them to achieve various kinds of innovative effects and stylish finishes in their interiors.
The use of MDF in India, however, has so far been limited, mainly due to a lack of availability of superior quality MDF in India and also due to inadequate knowledge about its usage and construction. In fact, most of the high-end requirements are currently being fulfilled by imported MDF. However, with a spiralling boom in the construction and building industry, MDF boards are now being recognised as highly durable and economical substitutes to wood panels and are becoming extremely popular even in India with builders, furniture manufacturers and interior designers. Taking cue from this growing trend, India's leading interiorsinfrastructure company, Greenply Industries Ltd., has stepped in to set-up a world-class, European-technology based manufacturing plant for MDF in Pantanagar. Greenply's Green Panelmax boards are qualitatively comparable to the very best in the world.
Apart from the environmental savings the use of Green Panelmax MDF boards entail, there are many intrinsic advantages that they have over conventional wood panels. These boards come with the maximum promise of delivering the best in quality and performance. Made with a unique fibre-interlocking technology which leads to high bonding strength and rigidity, these boards are loaded with features which are best suited for constructing durable furniture and creating unique interiors. Their homogeneous construction gives them easy machining characteristics and enables them to be intricately and precisely routed, carved and moulded. Additionally, their surface smoothness and 0% latex content ensures a perfect end finish while painting, polishing and applying gloss. It is also extremely simple to apply laminates and veneers over them. Green Panelmax boards undergo various processes to make them termite-, borer- and fungus-resistant.
