Backed by a €20 million investment, Unilin is set to start recycling MDF on an industrial scale at its site in Bazeilles, France. Unilin plans to make this innovative service available to the entire sector via Unilin Technologies. For the production of its MDF and HDF boards, Unilin Group, a global supplier of panels and building supplies, uses recovered and recycled wood. Until 2021, it was technically impossible to recycle the 100 million cubic feet of medium density fiberboard (MDF) and high density fiberboard (HDF) boards manufactured worldwide each year, but Unilin has developed a steam explosion technology to reclaim the wood fiber from these boards in an economically viable manner and reuse them for the production of high-quality fiberboards on an industrial scale.
