| | MDF(-Platte) | Explanation:
Medium Density Fiberboard (Mitteldichte Holzfaserplatte)
MDF usually remains MDF in German:
(die) MDF-Platte
Holzfasern werden mit Leim vermischt und zu Platten gepresst. Dadurch entsteht ein sehr formstabiler Werkstoff. Bei MDF-Platte wird wasserfester Leim verwendet. Die Fasern werden hoch verdichtet.
