Our Laser Compatible Medite Premier MDF sheets are highly versatile, suitable for enclosures and many other applications. Our laser MDF are EU class E1, which means low formaldehyde emissions. It is this low formaldehyde emission that makes this MDF suitable for laser cutting.

Please note:

As wood is a natural product, there is often a crook or bow to the sheet. The natural twist might be in excess of 10mm (see below – Tolerances and Caution).
Medite Premier MDF is produced using superior wood refining technology and specially designed resins. Benefits are the consistency of quality and thickness, as well as reduced tool wear. Medite Premier MDF retains the light tan colour of the wood fibre from which it is manufactured.

This product conforms to E1 (low) formaldehyde levels as well as also complying with the lower levels required by CARB phase 2 (CARB Phase 2 compliant <0.11ppm).

This product is often described as ‘Laser Grade’ MDF but there is no official classification for this. We believe that E1 conforming MDF is the safest and best MDF for using in a laser cutter.

Features:

  • Low formaldehyde emissions.
  • Highly versatile.
  • Suitable for use in internal dry conditions as defined in EN 622 parts 1 and 5 and conforms to EN13986.

Tolerances:

If you are using this product on a laser cutter; these sheets should be strapped/taped to the laser bed before cutting.

    Answered by the admin Hello Dave, CNC routing isn't something we have tried with this material as we don't have that machinery here. It may be suitable but without testing we couldn't say for sure. It may be the material we have would also produce a fluffy edge due to the nature of the product.

    Asked by Peter on July 31, 2014 12:00 am
    Answered by the admin Hi Peter, in this case the glue that is used in the MDF releases very low amounts of formaldehyde when burnt so it's much safer to cut.
