EGGER manufactures approximately 400,000 m3 of raw chipboard per annum in our modern and efficient facilities.
Customers then receive the product, which can either be used in its raw form or, in the case of EGGER (UK) Ltd at Hexham, it is upgraded to Melamine Faced Chipboard (MFC) products for the furniture and interior design markets and tongue & groove flooring for the building market.
A major investment in a wood recycling plant allows us to obtain our wood from a wide range of sources, and not just the nearby forests.
