Melamine MDF

Melamine MDF is a type of engineered wood product. It’s made by covering a substrate, such as MDF (Medium-Density Fiberboard) or plywood, with a melamine laminate. This laminate is a highly durable plastic formed when melamine, an organic compound, is combined with formaldehyde.

The melamine resin gives the MDF a very durable and attractive finish. It’s known for its high resistance to scratches, oils, mild acids, and heat. However, it’s also prone to chipping and peeling, and can be difficult to repair.

Melamine MDF is available in a wide range of colors, designs, sizes, and thicknesses. It’s commonly used in the construction of kitchen cabinets, shelves, whiteboards, and floor tiles. Despite some health-related concerns associated with melamine, these do not apply when it’s used as a construction material.
