A Staple Component In Homes Since 1966!

MDF is a staple component in most homes; the panel product has been around since 1966 when West Fraser’s CaberMDF was introduced to the building market. It can be sawn, drilled, shaped, and routed cleanly with minimum fuss, using hand or machine tools and looks good as the smooth surface of the panels is ideal for painting, veneers, or paper foils.

CaberMDF plays hide and seek around the home; it can be an architectural feature, fascia, shelf, fitted unit, wardrobe or kitchen and bathroom doors, drawers and carcasses. West Fraser’s comprehensive five-strong CaberMDF range has been designed to give the specifier options depending on the application. 

For general use, CaberMDF Trade is a versatile, lightweight board, which is ideal where weight is a factor. CaberMDF Trade MR offers the same benefits but with the added advantage of moisture resistance for wet or humid environments.

Where there is a need for premium quality and detailed working, CaberMDF Pro provides incredibly consistent density, ensuring cutting and routing need minimal finishing. CaberMDF Pro MR offers the further benefit of moisture resistance.

The ultimate product in the range is CaberMDF Industrial which is moisture resistant and designed specifically for the production of high-grade furniture and fittings. It is ideal for deep routing, and its consistent close-grained texture ensures clean edges and surfaces that will take advanced finishing techniques.

The materials and processes used to manufacture the product offer the reassurance of being sustainable. West Fraser’s range of board products is available in a wide selection of sizes to minimise waste. All timber used is responsibly sourced and FSC-certified and the net carbon negative panels are manufactured in the UK from locally grown timber.
