TAFIPAN LIGHT Particleboard for interior use with low density DESCRIPTION Tafipan Light is a low-density particleboard, suitable for non-structural interior applications with dry conditions. Tafipan Light has low formaldehyde emission (E1 class). Regarding reaction to fire and according to EN 13986, Tafipan Light, is classified as D-s2, d0 (Euroclasse definition by EN 13501-1). LIVING ROOMS In addition to technical performance Tafipan panels are sustainable and environmental products. Please check offer & service brochure for information on sizes and thicknesses available. APPLICATIONS Tafipan Light can be processed and machined in most industrial processes of furniture manufacturing. These panels are recommended for the production of doors, furniture and non-structural applications where low weight is an important factor. Tafipan Light must be applied in service class 1 (restrictions in temperature and ambient humidity). RECOMMENDATIONS Boards must be stacked on a hard, level surface and protected from direct contact with water. Expansion and contraction in wood products is directly related to moisture content and must be considered during design and construction. Wood based panels are biodegradable and can be recycled, follow local regulation for the disposal of residues. RETAIL & EXHIBITIONS
