Hardboard Eucalyptus: what is it?

Hardboard is a thin board material that can be used, among other things, for back walls of cupboards or other furniture, for levelling floors and as packaging material. Hardboard Eucalyptus is pressed from eucalyptus wood fibres and comes from Brazilian plantations. Due to the base of eucalyptus, these boards are dark and have greasy properties. Due to its greasy property, these panels are better protected against moisture than its regular namesake.

Like MDF, hardboard belongs to the family of fibreboards. Due to the structure of the press in which the wood fibres are compressed, hardboard has a smooth and a rough top layer with a copper mesh structure. During the process, the wood fibres are wetted and pressed under high pressure and temperature. As a result, no glue is needed to hold the fibres together. It is only suitable for indoor applications, as it has a suction effect and is therefore not resistant to moisture.

Hardboard is a constructional board. This means that this board material needs the necessary finishing before it can be used for visible work.

Specific applications of Hardboard Eucalyptus

Hardboard is an easy-to-process sheet material used for various interior panelling applications. Hardboard is an ideal product for packaging, for levelling floors and as a back wall for various types of furniture or cupboards.
