CaberMDF Industrial – a cut above the rest

CaberMDF Industrial, which is manufactured at the UK’s first dedicated site for Medium Density Fibreboard production, delivers high levels of accuracy when being crafted using all types of woodworking equipment, from CNC routers to hand tools.

Indeed, timber specialist West Fraser is proud to call it ‘the ultimate MDF’, while the product has proved its benefits across countless applications, in particular where the more intricate profiles are being created: even if deep and angled. Meanwhile, as it does not splinter or crack, unlike natural timber, there is minimal waste or need for reworking.

As well as achieving a higher quality end result for the carpenter, shop-fitter or furniture manufacturer, CaberMDF Industrial’s smooth surface will also accept paint and special surface finishes, including the application of paper foils and veneers.

Improved workmanship is further facilitated thanks to the boards offering superior screw and fastener holding compared to competing types of panel product, which is down to the high-quality fibre used in the manufacture of CaberMDF, as well as its internal bond strength.

Unlike many of West Fraser’s MDF boards, CaberMDF Industrial is produced to order, so offering the specifier the utmost in flexibility and design opportunities for applications such as shopfitting, furniture, fire surrounds, architectural or wrap mouldings, staircases and wall panelling.

Fashioning furniture, shelving and general-purpose joinery are other common uses. CaberMDF Industrial is able to withstand humid conditions so is ideal for kitchen and bathroom furniture too.

For peace of mind, the boards conform to European E1 emission standard, comply with BS EN 622: Parts 1 and 5, and carry the CE mark.
