Aromatic Cedar is an aesthetically pleasing hardwood plywood with all the protective properties of cedar’s fragrance. This panel provides an all natural defense against insects and mildew for use in closets, storage and laundry areas, garage and basements, pantries, kitchen and bathroom cabinets, chests and drawer liners.
The sapwood of aromatic cedar is very light in contrast to dark red to almost purple heartwood. Veneers are usually highly marked with open and sound knots, splits, and light and dark color streaks. Although not a true cedar, the distinctive aroma from this species is generally associated with the classic cedar smell.
The Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF) core is made in a production process similar to Particleboard (PBC) except that all of wood particles are small and uniform like sawdust. MDF offers great stability and is the least likely to react when subjected to a measurable change in temperature or humidity. It offers a very smooth, void-free surface for veneer faces.
MDF has greater strength and screw holding properties than particleboard and weighs around 100 lbs per 3/4″ panel. It is used in cabinets, furniture, fixtures and molding and is highly recommended for thin panel applications such as door inserts for cabinets and paneling.
