Medium density fiberboard is used in many furnishings because of its benefits.  This board product has become the popular and functional choice in furniture construction.

MDF is man-made from wood fibers, rather than particles, compressed together with adhesive. It is very strong, provides longevity, is resistant to warpage caused by moisture. Its smooth quality surface allows for easy application of varnishes and laminates, oil or water-based paints, and it's easily cut, drilled and machined. Consumers benefit from cost savings compared to real wood.
