Fiberboard (MDF): Fire Retardant

Description of item:
Fiberboard - Fire RetardantMDF Fire Retardant is made with a formaldehyde free (NAF) adhesive system and is designed for critical applications where Class 1 flame retardant material is required. MDF FR has a low flame spread and smoke development as well as extremely low VOC emissions. During the manufacturing process, the flame retardant additive is blended with the fiber throughout the panel. This process delivers superior performance versus topical flame retardant applications. In addition, MDF FR can be machined, cut, sanded, and grooved without compromising the flame retardance. This panel is CARB exempt.

Medium density fiberboard (MDF) is a non-structural, interior product that gives you a smooth hard surface, exceptional machining, and clean sharp edges. Although MDF uses much of the same types of recovered and recycled wood waste as Particleboard, it is refined differently using a high energy refiner that acts like a steam pressurized “digester” allowing the raw material to become softened and to actually change physically and chemically. MDF is an excellent substrate that is very smooth, stable, flat, and offers superior design flexibility.
