General Description

Boise Pine Particleboard by Boise

EPP: Particleboard meets the Environmentally Preferable Product specification:EPPS CPA 2-06. This requires strict adherence to using 100% recycled material as a fiber source in addition to maintaining formaldehyde emissions below 0.20 ppm. All mills undergo independent third party audits (monthly) for emissions and (quarterly) for fiber source.

CARB: Meets 2008 CARB standards.

Environmental Description

In keeping with our core commitment to sustain environmental resources for future generations, Boise employs the strictest of green practices in the manufacture of its premium particleboard. Our fiber procurement system champions Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) standards, and our finished panel embodies an Environmentally Preferred Product (EPP). Boise PB features industry-leading quality and physical properties, comprises 100% recycled or reclaimed fiber.

USGBC: It can potentially contribute to achieving Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) credits for: Materials and Resources
Recycled Content MR 4.1 & MR 4.2,
Regional Materials MR 5.1 & MR 5.2.
It combines low emission standards, certified recycled content, and sustainable raw materials, with the reliability and proven industry track record of wood based particleboard.

Ideal Applications

Can be sawed, dadoed, shaped, and routed, without chipping or flaking Versatile laminating substrate with excellent machining characteristics Two super-fine faces take even paper-thin laminates without telegraphing High internal bond, smooth surfaces, uniform density and strength Highly refined particle geometry forms two identical precision sanded faces and a consolidated core Exceptional panel construction dramatically improves tool life and productivity.

Two production lines, 4x24 feet and 5x18 feet, provide flexibility to meet multiple panel dimensions and thickness specification.
