First Quality Ingredients that make the difference

Uniboard uses top-quality wood fibers bonded with a proprietary resin formulation developed and produced at our Unires facility in Val-d’Or, Quebec or by our external supply partners, specific for our processes. Its smooth, dense and non-porous surface makes it ideal for laminating and machining. Easy to cut, Uniboard particleboard gives a clean result without chipping: a significant advantage that optimizes production time and minimizes waste.
