Abbey Wood supplied the durable MDF for an office and music room sited in the garden of an eight-bedroom house overlooking Dublin Bay.
"We wanted an 8x4ft timber base panel that would have a minimum 50-year life span. In addition the shell and roof of the building need to provide a watertight envelope. Medite Tricoya was the solution," said Shane McPartlan of Abbey Woods.
He added that the MDF’s hardwearing credentials, created by acetylisation of the wood fibre, weren’t the only reason for choosing Medite Tricoya.
"Medite Tricoya was used for this particular job due to the ease of assembly. The boards can be routed and fixed together; the nature of MDF means it is easy to cut and route, it is lightweight and a pleasure to work with," said Mr McPartlan.
