FAQs – Frequently asked questions about Particleboards
What standards apply for particleboards?
The requirements to be met by particleboards manufactured are specified in the European Standard EN 312. According to this standard, particleboards are divided into seven panel grades:
- Type P1 – general purpose boards for use in dry conditions
- Type P2 – boards for interior fitments (including furniture) for use in dry conditions
- Type P3 – non load-bearing boards for use in humid conditions
- Type P4 – load-bearing boards for use in dry conditions
- Type P5 – load-bearing boards for use in humid conditions
- Type P6 – heavy duty load-bearing boards for use in dry conditions
- Type P7 – heavy duty load-bearing boards for use in humid conditions.
What environmental information is available for particleboards?
Pfleiderer particleboards consist of more than 90% wood. In addition to residues from the sawmill industry and wood from forest thinning, untreated recycled wood is also used. 90% of our wood requirements are sourced locally from domestic sources. Our wood procurement also takes into account the requirements of FSC and PEFC.
By using different wood assortments and reusing recycled wood, wood can be used across multiple phases within cascade utilisation. Further information on raw material origin, wood use and the environmental properties of our products is available in the relevant product information and supporting documentation.
