Step 4: Shipping
Varies by destination
Step 1: Communication & Design
Clients provide reference images or specific requirements. Our design team matches appropriate steel plate texture effects and creates design drawings for client approval.
Step 2: Production Arrangement
Pre-production quality inspection includes formaldehyde emission levels and board density verification. For clients with strict requirements, we also test moisture content and static strength. We arrange production, procure raw materials (boards, melamine paper), prepare matching steel plates, and issue production orders.
Step 3: Quality Control & Packaging
Quality control is performed throughout the entire process. Products are packaged according to client specifications (e.g., 40 sheets per package, four-sided cushioning boards, strapping bands). Physical and chemical performance tests are conducted after production.
Step 4: Shipping
Products are shipped according to the agreed shipping method and terms. Shipping time varies depending on destination.
Common Procurement Pitfalls
Ignoring Environmental Standards
Failing to verify formaldehyde emission levels and environmental certifications can lead to non-compliant products that may be rejected in certain markets or pose health risks.
Quality-Price Imbalance
Focusing solely on low prices often results in inferior core materials, thinner melamine layers, or poor bonding quality. Always request samples and specifications before bulk orders.
Inadequate Packaging
Poor packaging can lead to edge damage, moisture exposure, and scratched surfaces during transit. Ensure proper corner protection, moisture barriers, and appropriate palletizing.
Unclear Specifications
Failing to clearly define product specifications, including exact dimensions, thickness tolerances, color matching standards, and edge finishing requirements can result in mismatched expectations.
Unrealistic Timelines
Not accounting for production lead times, quality control processes, and shipping delays can disrupt project schedules. Always build buffer time into procurement planning.
Skipping Sample Approval
Proceeding with bulk production without approving physical samples can lead to costly mistakes. Always request and approve samples of both the core material and the melamine finish.

Basic Knowledge of Particle Board & Chipboard
Understanding the fundamentals of particle board and chipboard helps you make informed decisions for your projects.
Composition
Particle board consists of wood particles, chips, and sawdust bonded with synthetic resin under heat and pressure. Chipboard is a type of particle board made specifically from wood chips, creating a medium-density engineered wood product.
Advantages
- Cost-effective alternative to solid wood
- Consistent density and thickness
- Resistant to warping and cracking
- Excellent for laminating and veneering
- Environmentally friendly (uses recycled wood waste)
Standard Sizes
Common thicknesses range from 6mm to 40mm. Standard sheet sizes include:
| Dimension | Metric (mm) | Imperial (ft) |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | 2440 × 1220 | 8' × 4' |
| Large | 3050 × 1220 | 10' × 4' |
| Custom | Available upon request | Available upon request |
Density Grades
Particle boards are classified by density:
| Grade | Density (kg/m³) | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Low Density | 400-600 | Insulation, non-load bearing applications |
| Medium Density | 600-800 | Furniture, cabinetry, general purpose |
| High Density | 800-1100 | Flooring, heavy-duty applications |
Moisture Resistance
Standard particle board is susceptible to moisture damage. However, moisture-resistant variants are available:
Surface Finishes
Particle board can be finished in various ways:
Raw/Unfinished
Melamine Faced
Wood Veneered
HPL Laminated

Common Questions and Answers about Melamine Faced Chipboard (MFC)
Everything you need to know about this versatile material for your furniture and interior design projects.
What is melamine faced chipboard (MFC)?
It is an engineered wood product made from wood chips and resin, with a melamine layer on the surface for aesthetics and protection. It is commonly used for furniture, cabinets, and shelving.
How is melamine faced chipboard manufactured?
By mixing wood chips with resin and pressing them into boards under high pressure, then applying a melamine layer on the surface, usually through high-temperature and high-pressure bonding.
What are the uses of melamine faced chipboard?
Widely used in kitchen cabinets, wardrobes, shelves, office furniture, and retail displays, among other indoor applications.
How does melamine faced chipboard compare to plywood?
MFC is more economical and scratch-resistant, but plywood is more water-resistant and suitable for applications requiring higher strength.
How does melamine faced chipboard compare to MDF?
MFC is more stable and has better nail and screw holding capacity, but MDF is better for fine processing and may produce more dust when cut.
Is melamine faced chipboard waterproof?
It has some water resistance but is not recommended for high-humidity environments like bathrooms or outdoors.
Can melamine faced chipboard be used for outdoor projects?
Not recommended, as it may degrade due to moisture when used outdoors; it is suitable for dry indoor environments.
How to cut melamine faced chipboard to avoid chipping?
Use a circular saw or plunge saw with a new sharp blade, and use a guide to ensure straight cuts.
What are the advantages of using melamine faced chipboard?
Scratch resistance, stain resistance, cost-effectiveness, variety of surface finishes, easy maintenance, and environmental friendliness (utilizes wood waste).
Is melamine faced chipboard environmentally friendly?
Relatively environmentally friendly, as it uses wood from sustainable forests and recycled wood, reducing the demand for solid wood.
Can melamine faced chipboard be painted?
It can be painted, but it is usually not necessary since the surface is already covered with melamine; it is recommended to clean directly.
What is the difference between melamine faced chipboard and laminate board?
MFC has a particleboard core with melamine facing, while laminate board typically refers to boards with thicker decorative layers; MFC is more economical.
Is melamine faced chipboard suitable for kitchen use?
Suitable, as it is scratch-resistant, stain-resistant, and easy to clean, but should avoid long-term exposure to moisture.
How long can melamine faced chipboard last?
Can last up to 10 years under normal use, depending on maintenance and environmental conditions.
What are the common problems with melamine faced chipboard?
Common problems include warping, surface scratches, bubbles, and stains, especially under improper storage or high humidity.
