Melamine-faced MDF Board is a highly popular material today thanks to its durability and aesthetics. This product is currently manufactured by ACC Panel. We invite you to explore the detailed information about this product line below.
What is Melamine-faced MDF Board?
Melamine-faced MDF is an engineered wood product consisting of two layers: an MDF core and a melamine-coated surface. Depending on your needs, you can choose to have one side or both sides coated. This product is widely used in modern interior construction.

Structure of Melamine-faced MDF Board
The product is composed of three main components:
-
Core Board: The core is made from industrial MDF wood. Depending on requirements, you can choose standard MDF or moisture-resistant MDF (HRM).
-
Melamine Surface Layer: An artificial decorative surface made up of three sub-layers — a base kraft paper layer, a printed decorative paper layer with wood grain patterns, and a protective overlay. Customers can choose to have the board coated on one or both sides as needed.
-
Adhesive Layer: A specialized adhesive that bonds the MDF core with the melamine surface layer.
The combination of these three components creates a melamine-faced MDF board that is visually appealing, high in quality, and highly durable. With a wide variety of surface grain patterns, it offers more options for selecting interior wood products.
