動力學
對永續家具的需求不斷成長
對永續性和家具碳足跡的擔憂促使木材的新方法和創造性用途迅速發展。 MDF 用於生產各種低成本家具,包括書櫃、娛樂中心和桌面。它也用於製造預製家具。 MDF 降低了家具製造成本,因為它價格便宜且易於製造。由於中密度纖維板成本低且可客製化,因此常用於平板包裝家具。
家具巨頭IKEA大量使用中密度纖維板,特別是在櫥櫃中。根據普華永道的一項研究,四分之三的消費者在購買家具時優先考慮永續性。 MDF木纖維可由多種材料製成,包括木材、間伐林、稻草、竹子、再生紙、碳纖維、鋸屑等。 MDF 主要由木纖維、鋸末、刨花和其他可能被丟棄的木材部分製成;這些廢物被回收製成中密度纖維板。
根據《今日家具》報道,未來五年,家具和床上用品支出將增加20.8%,到2026 年將達到1,450 億美元。隨著消費者更了解他們購買的家具類型,永續家具的銷售量將會增加,推動中密度纖維板產業。
住宅建設增加
對品牌、現成和低維護家具的需求每天都在增加,推動了住宅建築對纖維板的需求。在印度,國家層級對住房產業的廣泛支持體現在 2021 年國家預算中為住房分配了大量資金,例如分配給住房和城市發展部 (MoHUA) 的 5000 億盧比以及創建35億美元基金支持完成陷入停滯的住房項目。
Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana 計畫旨在透過財政援助等舉措,到 2022 年為所有城市貧困人口提供價格合理的住房,該計畫可能會繼續支撐印度住宅建設成長的強勁反彈。根據商務部住房和城市發展部的資料,房屋開工年率從 11 月的 168 萬套增加至 170 萬套。 2021年,新開工住宅160萬套,較2020年成長15.6%,2006年以來最高。
隨著住宅建築價值的上升,將會建造更多的房屋,從而增加對中密度纖維板的需求。由於抵押貸款利率和房屋貸款利率較低,預計 2022 年住宅建築價值將大幅上升,這為該行業帶來了機會。因此,住宅建築業的興起支撐了纖維板市場。
甲醛的危害影響
纖維板(尤其是中密度纖維板)的一個主要缺點是使用脲醛樹脂將微小的木材顆粒黏合在一起。因此,這些板會在一段時間內向環境中排放危險的揮發性有機化學物質。因此,強烈建議在切割、打磨或使用 MDF 時要格外小心,以避免吸入微小的木材顆粒和揮發性有機化合物。揮發性有機化合物會引發過敏、偏頭痛和氣喘。
根據《歐洲呼吸評論》的一項研究,室內 VOC 暴露對健康的潛在影響值得關注,特別是因為現在人們大部分時間都在室內度過,尤其是兒童。當中密度纖維板被切割、打磨、模製或機械加工時,會產生塗有甲醛的灰塵顆粒。這些顆粒比大多數其他常用木材排放的顆粒要小得多,可以深深地吸入肺部。
歐盟將甲醛列為致癌化學物質,含有甲醛的木製品受到嚴格控制。此因素給中密度纖維板業務帶來了困難。由木材、酚醛樹脂和硼酸鋅組成的中密度纖維板不含脲醛樹脂。此類中密度纖維板有助於克服這種限制。

Dynamics
Growing Demand for Sustainable Furniture
Concerns about sustainability and the carbon footprint of furniture have prompted the rapid development of new ways and inventive uses for wood. MDF is used to produce a variety of low-cost furniture, including bookcases, entertainment centres and tabletops. It is also used to make prefabricated furniture. MDF reduces the cost of furniture manufacture because it is inexpensive and easy to create. MDF is often utilised in flat-pack furniture due to its low cost and customisable aspect.
IKEA, the furniture giant, makes substantial use of MDF, particularly in cabinets. According to a PricewaterhouseCoopers study, three-quarters of consumers prioritise sustainability when purchasing furniture. MDF wood fibre can be made from a variety of materials, including wood, forest thinning, straw, bamboo, recycled paper, carbon fibres, sawdust and so on. MDF is created mostly from wood fibre, sawdust, wood shavings and other parts of the wood that would otherwise be thrown; these wastes are instead recycled into MDF.
According to Furniture Today, expenditure on furniture and bedding will increase by 20.8% over the next five years, reaching US$ 145 billion in 2026. As consumers become more aware of the type of furniture they purchase, sales of sustainable furniture will increase, driving the medium density fiberboard industry.
An Increase in Residential Construction
The need for branded, ready-made and low-maintenance furniture is expanding on a daily basis, driving up the demand for fiberboard in residential building. In India, extensive support at the national level for the housing industry is reflected in the allocation of sizeable funding for housing in the national 2021 Budget, such as Rs 50,000 crore allocated to the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development (MoHUA) and the creation of a US$ 3.5 billion fund to support the completion of stalled housing projects.
The Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana programme, which aims to offer reasonably priced housing to all urban poor by 2022 through initiatives such as financial assistance, is likely to continue to underpin India's solid rebound in residential construction growth. According to Commerce Department, Housing & Urban Development data, home starts increased 1.4% to 1.70 million annualized from 1.68 million in November. In 2021, 1.6 million dwellings were started, a 15.6% increase over 2020 and the highest since 2006.
As the value of residential building rises, more houses will be erected, increasing the demand for MDF. The value of residential construction is predicted to rise significantly in 2022 as a result of low mortgage rates and interest on house loans, which constitute an opportunity for the industry. Thus, the rise of the residential construction industry supports the fiberboard market.
Hazardous Impact of Formaldehyde
One major disadvantage of fiberboard, particularly MDF, is the use of urea formaldehyde resins to bind the microscopic wood particles together. As a result, the boards emit dangerous volatile organic chemicals into the environment for a period of time. As a result, it is strongly advised to exercise extreme caution when cutting, sanding or working with MDF to avoid inhaling minute wood particles and volatile organic compounds. VOCs can trigger allergies, migraines and asthma.
According to a European Respiratory Review research, the potential health effects of indoor VOC exposure are cause for concern, especially since people in general and children in particular, now spend the majority of their time indoors. When MDF is chopped, sanded, moulded or machined, it produces formaldehyde-coated dust particles. The particles are substantially smaller than those emitted by most other regularly used woods and can be inhaled deeply into the lungs.
EU classified formaldehyde as a cancer-causing chemical and wood goods containing formaldehyde are subject to severe controls. The element presents a difficulty to the medium density fiberboard business. MDF composed of wood, phenolic resins and zinc borate does not contain urea formaldehyde resins. Such types of MDFs help overcome this restraint.
The global fiberboard market is segmented based on type, application, end-user and region.
Rising Home Furnishings Drive the Growth of Furniture
Furniture is expected to be the fastest growing segment with 1/3rd of the market during the forecast period 2023-2030. Fiberboards are reconstituted wood-based panel products. It is created by breaking down hardwood or softwood residuals into wood fibers, usually in a furnace, mixing them with wax and a resin binder and producing panels using high temperature and pressure.
According to U.S. Census Bureau, in U.S., in November 2021, furniture and home furnishing store sales were expected to be around US$ 13.31 billion, up from US$ 12.44 billion the previous month. Furthermore, the transition away from corporate settings has increased demand for more functional and adaptable home furnishings. If it is an ergonomic chair, office desk or study table, those who work from home will concentrate on home decor, driving the furniture segment, resulting in an increase in the fiberboard market during the forecast period.
Growing Spending on Residential Construction in Asia-Pacific
Asia-Pacific is the dominant region in the global fiberboard market covering about 1/3rd of the market. Increased spending on residential development to meet rising housing demand is propelling the fiberboard market. According to the Indian Brand Equity Fund, 55,907 newly constructed houses were sold in eight micro-markets throughout India between July and September 2021, representing a 59% YoY gain. In India, the availability of affordable housing is predicted to increase by approximately 70% by 2024.
The Indian government's 'Housing for All by 2022' initiative is also a significant game changer for the business. By 2022, the plan hopes to have built more than 20 million affordable dwellings for the urban poor. The Japanese construction industry is expected to grow as the country prepares to host the World Expo in Osaka, Japan, in 2025. Rising investments will increase the demand for fiberboard in the region.

Bhd.
The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the global market extensively. In the initial phase of the pandemic, as people were confined to their houses, the demand for flooring, furniture and various decorative panels helped the market recover. According to a study by Harvard University researchers, in U.S. spending on home improvements and repairs grew more than 3%, to nearly US$ 420 billion, as households modified living spaces for work, school and leisure in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
CouponFollow, a homeowner savings resource, conducted a survey of more than 1,000 Americans about the DIY projects they took up during the pandemic. According to the survey, the five most common and successful projects during the pandemic were building/installing shelving and cabinetry, house painting, building/enhancing the garden, bathroom decoration and bedroom decoration. Also, during the lockdown, many people purchased new homes, which in itself calls for home improvement projects. It contributed to the sales of medium density fiberboards.
