the BenefitS of MeDite MDf

MEDITE SMARTPLY has worked to develop its leading MEDITE MDF range to allow architects and designers to make spaces that meet both design and health goals. The result is an innovative, versatile and sustainable product range that offers solutions to an extremely wide range of applications, ten different families of MDF products and many variants, and over 400 possible specifications. The extensive MEDITE MDF range boasts outstanding machinability, strength and uniformity, allowing fabricators to create bespoke structures to cater specifically to their clients’ needs. A host of creations can be found on MEDITE SMARTPLY’s recently launched members-only community of MDF enthusiasts, giving people a chance to share their work, gain inspiration, make contacts and win industry leading prizes from power tool brand Milwaukee! The MEDITE MDF range is also consciously developed to allow designers to be attentive to the vitality of the indoor spaces they contribute to offering cleaner and safer indoor spaces for occupants. Formaldehyde is a substance that occurs naturally in all organic materials, including wood, in very small amounts that may be off-gassed or emitted over time. Most of the MEDITE range is independently tested and shown to exceed the stringent CARB2 standard for formaldehyde content and off-gassing levels. In the cases where they are not, they have been manufactured with guaranteed no added formaldehyde and also exceed the E1 European Standard level. One such product is MEDITE CLEAR. Specially designed for sensitive interior applications such as hospitals, schools and care homes, it has been proven to have a formaldehyde content of less than 1.0mg/100g even less than the general outdoor ambient level. This made it an ideal choice for the refurbishment of Tipperary Museum of Hidden History. It was specified to manufacture components such as display cases and plinths within its interior fit out to protect the museum’s precious artefacts. MEDITE makes it real.
