fiberboard
Engineered wood panel
Fiberboard is a building material made from wood fibers compressed into rigid sheets.
Denser than particle board but cheaper than solid wood, it serves as insulation, sheathing, and subflooring.
Medium-density fiberboard (MDF) is a common variety used in furniture and cabinetry: The shelves were made of fiberboard with a veneer finish.
