Furniture Board
An engineered wood panel made from wood fibers or particles bonded with resin and covered with a melamine, vinyl, or veneer surface. Furniture board is commonly used in economy cabinet construction for sides, shelves, and backs. While it provides a smooth, finished surface at a low cost, it is less durable and moisture-resistant than plywood. Higher-quality furniture board may use MDF cores for better screw-holding and edge finishing.
