particle board

Particle board is an engineered wood product made from wood particles, such as sawdust, wood chips, and shavings, bonded together with adhesive under heat and pressure. It provides a cost-effective alternative to solid wood and is commonly used in furniture, cabinetry, and flooring. While it is relatively strong and stable, particle board is less durable and more susceptible to moisture damage compared to natural wood. To improve its appearance and durability, surfaces are often covered with laminate, veneer, or melamine. It’s a practical choice for many indoor applications where cost and uniformity are more important than high-end craftsmanship.
