UltraStock MR by Temple-Indland

General Description

Delivering improved dimensional stability and reduced thickness swell when wet, UltraStock-MR is especially valuable anywhere joints, seams and damage in laminated or finished surfaces allow moisture penetration. This includes interior window and door trim, baseboards and laminate flooring that may become wet from mopping, condensation or even foot traffic.

MDF is non-structural, interior product made from wood particles that are often the byproducts from the manufacture of the other wood products such as lumber or paper. The particles are mixed with resins and formed under heat and pressure into a strong, solid board.

This Medium Density Fiberboard contains low fuming urea formaldehyde resin and may release formaldehyde vapors in low concentrations. Formaldehyde vapors can be potentially irritating to the eyes and upper respiratory system. Should irritation develop, consult your physician.
