Cut to Size MDF

CNC Cutting — Tags: , , , — Booker Timber @ 11:32 am

MDF (Medium Density Fibreboard) is created by breaking small wood pieces down to the component fibres and remaking into a solid material. The components are usually sawdust and other by-products of the timber industry, so MDF sheets are an environmentally friendly option. When we need to cut down a tree, products like this let us use the whole thing with very little waste.

Because MDF is reworked from small particles it doesn’t contain knots. No piece of solid timber is uniform. They all contain knots (areas of high density), rings, or points of weakness. The finished fibreboard doesn’t, so it can be cut and shaped easily and precisely. Our computerised CNC routing machines can produce exact shapes with no chips or splinters.

Getting your fibreboard pre-cut is a good idea. It’s a great material, but because of the nature of the manufacturing process, cutting it releases considerable quantities of fine wood dust and airborne resins that can be dangerous if accidentally inhaled. All our workshops are very well ventilated and we follow best practice safety guidelines at all times. It pays to be careful when dealing with MDF.

We offer cut to size MDF to almost any specifications. Whether you only need a few pieces or want to place a massive bulk order, Booker Timber should be your first port of call. Our machinery represents the latest and best technology and our staff have the experience to use it well. We know MDF inside and out and can provide whatever you need at reasonable rates.

The best way to ensure that your upcoming DIY or building projects are the best they can be is by finding respectable and enthusiastic merchants for the basic materials, such as timber. At Booker Timber, we aim to provide beautiful quality timber and an efficient timber cutting service to all of our customers.

Whether you need cut to size MDF or something more substantial, we can provide Chain of Custody certified timber for the job; high quality and sourced in an environmentally-friendly manner. We make a conscious effort to be an ecologically responsible company, minimising waste by implementing careful design and planning. This planning can save you money too, keeping the amount of chipboard that you might need, for example, as low as possible.

We are able to achieve this thanks to our CNC beam saws, which are amongst the UK’s largest of their kind. They have the capacity to process large volumes of timber at one time, cutting to within 0.1mm accuracy. Operated by our experienced staff and programmed using clever software, these precise saws allow us to make the most out of each sheet cutting, even when producing seemingly awkward shapes.

Our services are priced competitively and we pride ourselves on our efficient, accurate, environmentally-friendly timber cutting and packaging. We can also cut free issue timber and are happy to offer advice upon the benefits of different varieties of wood for those embarking on a DIY or construction project which is outside their usual realm of knowledge.
