Due to the rising prices of timber and growing demand for wood-based materials the manufacturers of wood materials are forced to search for methods which will increase the efficiency of the available supply of raw materials. Shredded raw materials which are waste products of a different manufacturing technology can be used for the production of particleboards. The particleboard industry can use wood materials obtained by shredding smaller pieces of wood, which are waste products resulting from the manufacturing of other wood materials (waste from the sawmill industry) or the shredding of used wood.
Keywords: particleboard, mechanical properties
