Particle board is an engineered wood product made from small wood particles, such as chips, shavings, or sawdust, that are bonded together with adhesive under heat and pressure. It is commonly used in furniture, cabinetry, and flooring due to its affordability and versatility. This material is often covered with a veneer or laminate to improve its appearance and durability. While particle board is less expensive than solid wood or plywood, it is generally less strong and can be susceptible to moisture damage if not properly sealed.
