From veneer to ultralight MDF to particle board, we offer an incredible variety of wood products. And if you don't see exactly what you're looking for, we can custom manufacture what you need.Our Ampine particleboard division specializes in composite panels responsibly created with the environment in mind. We continually improve processes to reduce waste. We use no-added formaldehyde (NAF) based resins to reduce emissions, and use 100% post-industrial recycled/recovered fiber. Manufactured for superior strength and physical properties, our products can replace MDF in many applications. Ampine has moisture-resistant and fire-resistant panels available for applications that are more specialized. The extra-smooth finish of our Ampine panels are ideal for painting, lamination or veneer layups.

EXECUTION

EXAMINATION

Do not begin installation until adjacent construction is within manufacturer's acceptable tolerance and substrates have been properly prepared.

If substrate preparation is the responsibility of another installer, notify Architect of unsatisfactory preparation before proceeding.

Do not use materials with defects that would interfere with installation quality.

PREPARATION

Clean surfaces thoroughly prior to installation.

Prepare surfaces using the methods recommended by the manufacturer for achieving the best result for the substrate under the project conditions.

INSTALLATION

Install materials in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations and in proper relationship with adjacent construction.

Refer to Architectural Woodwork Standards (AWS) for fabrication and installation procedures.

CLEANING

Remove all excess and waste materials from the job site in accordance with the Owner's construction waste management requirements.

PROTECTION

Protect installed products until Substantial Completion.

Repair or replace damaged products before Substantial Completion.
