MDF

Long recognized as a quality leader, Plum Creek manufactures a specialty Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF) product sold by full truckload, container load and rail car throughout North America and the Pacific Rim.

When it comes to value, what really counts is not just how much MDF costs -- but how much it costs to use it. Whether you're a hobbyist or a large-scale fabricator. choosing the right MDF for your application is critical.

Not all MDF panels are alike, and may differ by wood species, fiber size, binders, density and consistency. All of these factors, along with your manufacturing conditions, have a huge impact on key elements of your processing costs, including:

• Cutting tool life
• Throughput speed/productivity
• Machine tool amp load/energy usage
• Quality of the machined profile as it relates to the need for sanding, filling and other steps prior to finishing
• Amount/thickness of coating or laminating material required for adequate coverage
• Reject rates for defects
• Labor
