This section is dedicated to particleboard panels for the furniture industry and interior design. Particleboard panels are wood-based materials produced by pressing wood chips, flakes or particles mixed with thermosetting synthetic resins. This process yields homogeneous, durable and easy-to-work panels, now widely used in the furniture sector, in surface coverings and in furniture production.

The surfaces of particleboard panels can be left raw or covered with melamine papers, laminates or veneers, to provide a more refined aesthetic and improve surface resistance.

Types of particleboard panels

On the market there are various variants of particleboard panels, designed to meet specific requirements of strength, weight and intended use:

Standard particleboard panel

This is the most common type, used for the production of furniture, furnishing components and interior claddings. 

Moisture-resistant particleboard panel

Treated with resins and additives that reduce water absorption, it is suitable for humid environments such as kitchens and bathrooms.

Fire-retardant particleboard panel

Contains flame-retardant additives that improve fire resistance, ideal for public and contract applications.

Low-density particleboard panel

Lightweight and easy to work, it is used for doors, partitions and components where high mechanical strength is not required.

Faced particleboard panel

Faced with melamine papers or laminates, it combines the structural performance of the particleboard substrate with a decorative aesthetic suitable for many interior design applications.

Applications of particleboard panels

Thanks to their versatility, particleboard panels are used in numerous contexts:

• Residential furniture: furniture, kitchens, wardrobes and bookcases;
• Interior claddings: walls, paneling and suspended ceilings;
• Commercial and contract furnishings: counters, displays, desks and partition walls;
• Furniture industry: as a substrate for surfaces covered with laminate, melamine or veneer.

Advantages of particleboard panels

Particleboard panels offer numerous technical and economic advantages:

• Affordability: an economical and readily available material;
• Versatility: suitable for multiple applications in the furniture and cladding sector;
• Dimensional stability: good resistance to deformation;
• Compatibility with various surface coverings (melamine, laminate, veneer);
• Sustainability: often made from recycled wood or from production waste.

Particleboard panels: conclusions

Particleboard panels represent a functional and sustainable solution for the world of furniture and design. Used as a base for furniture, decorative components and surface coverings, they stand out for affordability, stability and ease of machining. 
Thanks to the many variants — standard, moisture-resistant, fire-retardant or faced — they adapt perfectly to residential, commercial and contract projects, offering an excellent balance between technical performance and aesthetic value.
