What is MDF?

MDF is a product obtained by pressing a fiber mat under heat and pressure after fibers derived thermomechanically from wood or other lignocellulosic raw materials are dried to a certain moisture level with the addition of synthetic adhesive.

Where is MDF Used?

The uniform distribution and density of fibers throughout every point of MDF allow not only both surfaces of the board, but also its edges, to be machined without any breakage or without gaps forming between material particles. Thanks to this feature, MDF can be successfully used in the production of parts such as tabletops, door panels, and drawer fronts with beveled edges or profiled surfaces.

The surfaces of MDF boards can be coated with all kinds of laminate, resin-impregnated paper, foil, and wood veneer. The edges of MDF are extremely smooth and compact, allowing grooves and tenons to be machined without bonding solid wood strips, and enabling all kinds of profiles to be applied.

Ease, Stability, and Excellence

Another superior feature of MDF is its high bending strength, modulus of elasticity, and screw and nail holding capacity. The main features of Çamsan Ordu MDF include ease of machining, excellent stability, almost no dimensional movement, availability in standard sizes, both surfaces being sanded and calibrated, absence of defects such as knots, cracks, or splinters, uniform density at every point, readiness for use, no need for any preparation process, compatibility with all kinds of lacquer, paint, and varnish, suitability for coating with materials such as wood veneer, PVC, laminate, and melamine-faced decorative paper, and excellent screw-holding capacity from both surfaces and edges.

Our profiling products are unrivaled in door production applications, as they are in every application.
