MFC Furniture Panels

Melamine-faced chipboard (MFC) furniture panels are used in interior design, furniture making and kitchen fitting. These panels combine practicality with good looks at an affordable price. They have a chipboard core made from wood chips and shavings bonded together and then they are covered on both sides with decorative paper soaked in melamine resin.

The panels we stock come in many colours and finishes from neutral tones such as alpine white, cashmere and pearl grey to wood-effect finishes including lancaster oak. More vibrant options include reed green, alby blue and graphite. You can buy them as large sheets or in pre-cut sizes, and we stock widths ranging from 300mm to 2070mm. MFC panels are highly versatile and they can be utilised in many applications around the home. They're perfect for kitchen cabinets and doors because they resist stains and are easy to clean. People also use them for shelving, custom desks, workstations and TV back panels. The edges can be finished with banding to hide the chipboard core and create a neat, professional look.

One big advantage of MFC furniture panels is that they save time. The panels come pre-finished, so there's no need for painting or varnishing. The melamine surface makes them resistant to scratches, stains and water, but the core should be kept dry. Because they use wood chips that might otherwise go to waste, MFC panels are also an environmentally friendly choice. MFC offers good value for money compared to solid wood or MDF, and it is still a very durable choice. This makes it popular with both professionals and DIY enthusiasts who want quality materials without exceeding their budgets.

The main manufacturers of MFC furniture panels that we stock are Egger and Kronospan, and they are both known for producing reliable, high-quality products that meet high industry standards. These companies offer a wide range of MFC panel options to suit different projects and designs for many indoor uses.
