Lakboard: what is it?

Hardboard is a thin board material that can be used, among other things, for back walls of cupboards or other furniture, for levelling floors and as packaging material. But hardboard can also be used for finishing walls and ceilings. Like MDF, hardboard belongs to the family of fibreboards. During the process, the wood fibres are wetted and pressed under high pressure and temperature. As a result, no glue is needed to hold the fibres together. It is only suitable for indoor applications, as it has a suction effect and is therefore not resistant to moisture.

Lacquerboard is both a constructive and decorative board. This board material has two smooth top layers of which one is brown and the other is finished with a thin white layer. The board material can therefore be used immediately and does not need to be finished.

Machining of lacquerboard sheets

The board consists of wood fibres that are compressed under high pressure. This makes the material easy to process. When milling or sawing, this board material does not splinter. For mounting, you can choose to nail or screw this material.

Are you going to paint this board? Finish the edges with an edge sealer and then sand and paint neatly. Bear in mind that only one side can be finished. It is also important to degrease the board properly.

Specific applications of lacquerboard

Lacquerboard is an easy-to-process sheet material used for various interior panelling applications. Lacquerboard is an ideal product for packing items, levelling floors and as a back wall for various types of furniture or cupboards. The homogeneous structure makes this board, in comparison to other board material, less sensitive to shrinkage and expansion at varying temperatures. Hardboard is not suitable for use in damp rooms or outdoors. It is important to always fix hardboard, otherwise the material will undulate.
