MDF (Medium Density Fibreboard) is created by breaking small wood pieces down to the component fibres and remaking into a solid material. The components are usually sawdust and other by-products of the timber industry, so MDF sheets are an environmentally friendly option. When we need to cut down a tree, products like this let us use the whole thing with very little waste.

Because MDF is reworked from small particles it doesn’t contain knots. No piece of solid timber is uniform. They all contain knots (areas of high density), rings, or points of weakness. The finished fibreboard doesn’t, so it can be cut and shaped easily and precisely. Our computerised CNC routing machines can produce exact shapes with no chips or splinters.

Getting your fibreboard pre-cut is a good idea. It’s a great material, but because of the nature of the manufacturing process, cutting it releases considerable quantities of fine wood dust and airborne resins that can be dangerous if accidentally inhaled. All our workshops are very well ventilated and we follow best practice safety guidelines at all times. It pays to be careful when dealing with MDF.
