Description

MDF Water-resistant Walnut American rustic veneer variant for use in damp rooms. A bathroom cabinet is an example for which MDF moisture-resistant is the perfect solution.

In addition to these handy water-resistant properties, the board has a natural real wood veneer which gives it a beautifully elegant finish.

Furthermore, the veneer layer is composed of rustic oak. This rustic look is characterised by knots, cracks, colour variations and a pronounced grain pattern. The veneer often shows the visual signs of the original tree, giving it a warm and characterful aesthetic. The top layers and end edges have yet to be treated.

MDF Water-resistant Walnut American rustic veneer: what is it?

MDF moisture-resistant is a broadly applicable board suitable for various interior panelling applications where the space is humid, such as in bathrooms and kitchens. The V313 characteristic comes from the test for water resistance that the board material undergoes, called V313. It indicates that the board is not only water-resistant, but also water- and mould-resistant. Note that the board is not waterproof! water-resistant MDF boards are composed of dried wood fibres and glue. These wood fibres are then compressed under high pressure and temperatures to form an MDF board. In MDF moisture-resistant, a special, water-resistant type of glue is used. To enhance the water-resistant properties, the material is pressed under a higher pressure compared to MDF blank. The extra-hard pressing makes this type of wood easy to work with. water-resistant MDF boards can be recognised by their green core. MDF Water-resistant Walnut American rustic veneer is not suitable for outdoor use.

Because it is a natural product, there may be colour and texture differences between different panels. No two panels are the same. In addition, it is important that this panel is finished with a lacquer or oil as desired. This prevents discolouration and preserves the top layer. 

Veneered board material has the big advantage over solid board material that it does not warp. The MDF core of this board material gives it the advantages of MDF, but the appearance of solid and natural wood.
