Chipboard, which is also called particle board in some places, is made from small pieces of timber obtained by shredding waste or recycled wood.
The wood chips are mixed with a liquid plastic, which hardens when it is heated under pressure. The resulting sheets may be coated with wood veneer or another plastic.
Chipboard is an extremely useful man-made material. A veneered surface is widely used for flat-pack furniture and work surfaces. It can be used for kitchen tops which are laminated with melamine and fire doors.
Our high-density chipboard is often used as the carcass for kitchen units and worktops and flooring. This type of chipboard is hardwearing, rigid and heavy.
There are exterior grades of chipboard available but most are only suitable for internal use.
