MFC

MFC or Melamine Faced chipboard is used in the vast majority of office furniture manufactured in the U.K. It comes in many varying thicknesses though the standard is 25mm. MFC has improved greatly over the years, it is now manufactured from real wood grain, which is pressed into a Melamine Film, that is processed onto chipboard. The chipboard is one of the key factors when deciding the MFC's density. Most domestic furniture uses the lighter low-density board, whereas commercial furniture is processed into a dense board, making the product stronger and less pliant.

MFC is a popular choice for trade and contract projects because it combines a consistent, wipeable melamine surface with a lower cost than veneered or lacquered alternatives, while still being available in a wide range of woodgrain, solid colour and textured finishes to match any interior scheme. It resists everyday scuffs, light impacts and moisture far better than untreated chipboard, which is why it is specified so widely for desking, storage, retail fixtures and washroom cubicle systems.

We can produce the highest quality of MFC furniture, desks, workstations, cupboards etc. As well as many more domestic and commercial items. MFC panels can come in many different colours and finishes, allowing for a very bespoke product.

Common applications we supply into include office desking and storage, school and college furniture, retail shelving and counters, washroom cubicle systems and hotel bedroom furniture, wherever a durable, easy-clean surface is needed at a competitive price point. As a trade supply-only manufacturer, we don't fit or install the finished components ourselves; instead we work directly with joiners, shopfitters and furniture installers, supplying cut, edged and labelled panels ready to build into the final product.
