MDF

Medium-density Fibreboard or MDF is a type of wood that’s manufactured from wood fibres that are obtained from breaking down hardwood and softwood, before combining them with wax and a resin binder and compressed into panels through the application of high temperature and pressure. Since it is made in this way, MDF is generally denser than plywood and is used in similar applications, but is usually a cheaper alternative. At V&R Laser Services, MDF is a popular material for our products for a number of reasons and applications, since:

• MDF has a smooth even surface which is ideal for painting and printing.
• Our laser cut MDF parts are always clean and burn-free, which includes laser engraving.
• MDF is commonly used in a range of school and craft projects, signage and lettering that is intended for painting, templates and jigs, architectural models and much more. A perfect set-up for MDF laser cutting.
