Melamine
Melamine, Thermally Fused
Thermally fused melamine is an affordable option for projects that call for high pressure laminate in vertical or low-wear areas.
Thermally fused melamine is manufactured with a melamine impregnated paper that is fused to a particleboard or MDF substrate with extreme heat.
Note that veneer cores cannot be used during the fusing process, because the press and the heat will cause “blowout” within the core. If your project requires a veneer core then consider using Cold Roll Melamine.

Melamine, Cold Roll
Cold roll melamine is a more affordable alternative to thermally fused melamine for projects in vertical or low-wear areas that don’t call for high-pressure laminate.
Unlike thermally fused melamine, cold roll melamine can have a veneer core substrate along with MDF or particleboard substrates.

Cold roll melamine is available through special order in a variety of colors and wood grains.
Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF)
EXTIRA® Exterior MDF
EXTIRA® is a revolutionary product that performs better than wood or MDF. It is twice as strong as MDF, and is made to be used outside.
EXTIRA® panels are sanded two sides for a smooth, unprimed surface that is moisture, rot, and termite resistant.
EXTIRA® is easy to work with; can be carved, routed and machined, and can be used for virtually any non-structural paint grade application including exterior millwork, door and window parts, signage, garage doors and other architectural components.
EXTIRA® panels are covered by an industry-leading 10-year limited warranty that far exceeds competitive panel products.

King StarBoard® ST
King StarBoard® ST is a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) sheet that provides a scratch-resistant surface for many applications. An advanced polymer makes the material almost 25% stronger than the original King StarBoard®.
High scratch resistance makes it especially appropriate in the construction of cabinets and furniture. Also, its high strength and stiffness make it desirable for applications where less structural support is available.
StarBoard® ST is environmentally stabilized and has been developed to withstand the harshest outdoor conditions. It can be used in wet areas that need to be washed often for cleaning, or are regularly exposed to moisture.
It can be fabricated using common woodworking tools and techniques. This product has become extremely popular in the construction of outdoor kitchens and furniture associated with outdoor living spaces.
