Particle board – also known as particleboard, low-density fibre board (LDF), and chipboard – is an engineered wood product manufactured from wood chips, sawmill shavings, or even sawdust, and a synthetic resin or other suitable binder, which is pressed and extruded. Oriented strand board, also known as flakeboard, wafer board, or chipboard is similar, but uses machined wood flakes offering more strength. All of these are composite materials that belong to the spectrum of fiberboard products.

Today let’s take a look how particleboard was made.

4.particles classified and screening

Need control particle size in order to make sure the size and position of the particles in right place, small particles on or fine chips for surface, bigger particles and coarser chips in the core

5.Blended with resin and additives

An adhesive or glue will be applied to the surface of particles to bind all together

7.Hot pressed to compact the particles together and cure the resin trimming and cutting

Pre-pressing of furnish to reduce the bulk and give some mechanical strength to the mattress

Hot-pressing to finally consolidate the board and cure the adhesive

8.cooled and finished

Panels need to be cooled before finishing

After cooling the boards are sanded to the final thickness and to give good surface finish
