HDF Factory – raw lumber, originally uploaded by steve_simonson.
HDF is the core board used for laminate flooring and many other click flooring options. Have you ever wondered what high density fiberboard (HDF) is made of? (I am sure that question keeps all of you up at night.)
Well for those that didn’t laugh sarcastically at that question the answer is: TREES
These fast growing sustainable trees are brought to the mill and stacked up as shown in this photo waiting to be loaded into a shredder and then compressed to the fiber board.
I will post more on this production process which is so vital to flooring in the near future.
