We created UltraStock™ Lite MDF to provide the outstanding machinability and top-quality finishing characteristics you expect from UltraStock MDF, but with less product weight. In fact, it can help you produce non-load-bearing components with as much as 15% less density. It's perfect for reducing the weight of ready-to-assemble products and it lowers the repetitive stress on machine operators at the same time. And since UltraStock Lite is less dense, it generates less machine wear, too.
Panels can be painted, printed, stained, veneered or laminated with excellent results. And machined edges can be finished smoothly and evenly.
