HDF (High-Density Fiberboard)
HDF is an engineered wood product similar to MDF but denser, stronger, and more durable. It is manufactured by compressing wood fibers with resin under intense pressure and heat to form a high-strength board with a smooth finish. Known for its rigidity and fine texture, HDF is ideal for flooring, wall paneling, and high-traffic interior applications. Jain Plywood Company offers the best HDF collection in Panchkula, Chandigarh, and Mohali, with a wide range of sizes, thicknesses, and grades to meet all design and construction needs.
