Oak Veneered MDF

Oak veneered MDF board is a composite material notable for easy machining, good environmental figures and resistance to wear. Made from ground wood pulp and binders, the sheet is used to produce:

1. Furniture. Wardrobes, chests of drawers, shelving units and shelves made from oak veneered MDF are used to furnish city flats and country houses. Carcase furniture with a textured surface suits styles such as country, retro, boho, minimalism, neoclassical, rustic and eclectic.
2. Wall panels. Natural wood as a wall finish is a current trend in interior fashion. Wall panels with an expressive wood figure look striking in studies, libraries, dining rooms and the living room.
3. Arches and internal partitions. Doors, arches, window sills, screens and partitions made from veneered MDF help create a space that is consistent in style.

MDF boards faced with natural oak are available for collection from the warehouse shop or for delivery across Ukraine. Ask our managers about prices for trade and retail customers, payment methods and stock.

Performance of MDF panels

Environmental safety, ease of machining and strength are named as the main properties of MDF panels. The material, used widely in carcase furniture, is made from wood chips, as particle board is. The way the raw material is processed and the pressing technology differ, however, which yields a board with better performance in use. Our online shop stocks oak veneered MDF sheets. Natural wood improves both the durability and the appearance of fibreboard.

Furniture makers choose fibreboard sheets for a number of reasons, among them:

How oak veneered MDF is made

The raw material for MDF is timber-processing waste and trees scheduled for felling. The production stages run as follows:

1. The wood dust is ground down thoroughly.
2. The wood material is treated with steam at high pressure.
3. The resulting mass is refined in a defibrator.
4. Bonding resins and paraffin are added to the refined, dried material.
5. After hot-air drying the mixture goes into a hopper, where it is compacted.
6. The material is levelled on the conveyor, pressed and heated. Under high temperature the blank partly fuses, gaining density and strength. After a set interval the pressure is reduced and the thickness of the panel is adjusted.
7. The sheets cool, are sanded and are cut to the required size.
8. Oak veneer is bonded to the finished MDF panels.

Oak veneer: what to know

Dense, hard timber resists scuffing and scratching and takes considerable mechanical load. Oak veneered MDF sheets are used for fronts of wardrobes, base units and tall units in the bedroom, living room and kitchen. The material also suits doors, screens, partitions, and wall and ceiling panels.

Oak veneer has a textured figure with clear lines. Knotty oak is particularly interesting. Unfinished sheets are most often in light tones: milky, grey, pale beige. The material takes further decorative finishing readily. Stains and lacquers bring out the beauty of the natural figure and make it more expressive and contrasting.
