About this Bead and Butt Panelling

20x 8×4′ size Medite re-primed moisture resistant MDF with Richmond profile style grooves (101.6mm centres) running along the board – excellent for panelling walls and ceilings.

MDF (Medium Density Fibre) is a widely used sheet material within the building and joinery industry. As it’s free from defects, it’s easily cut and shaped with both hand and machine tools to provide a surface that can be painted or otherwise decorated.

Key Features

  • 9mm thickness
  • Size 2440mm x 1220mm
  • Butt & bead spacing is 101.6mm
  • The lack of knots and grain ensures it can be cut in all directions while maintaining its original strength
  • Sands and finishes well
  • It can be glued, screwed, painted and veneered
  • Grooves run along the length or width of the sheet (2440mm)
  • Made from moisture-resistant MDF, making them suitable for humid rooms like bathrooms and kitchens

Style: Wainscot, wainscotting, half wall panelling, bead board.

This product is ideal for wainscotting, or creating half wall style bead board panelling.

Environmental
MDF is manufactured from wood fibres mixed with resin and waxes, which are then hot pressed to the required thickness. These wood fibres sourced from environmentally friendly forest thinnings, recycled wood/pallets, and sawdust.

At Panelling Direct, we believe in responsible sourcing. Our bead & butt MDF sheets come from FSC-certified suppliers, ensuring sustainable forest management and ethical production processes:

  • Made using wood fibres from environmentally friendly sources
  • Manufactured with low-emission resins, making it a healthier choice for your home
  • Supports a circular economy by repurposing recycled wood fibres and sawdust

Safety
All dust can be harmful if inhaled or ingested. MDF dust is no exception. Correct PPE such as dust masks and goggles should be worn as a matter of routine. Workshop machines should be fitted with appropriate dust extraction equipment. If not in a workshop environment, then MDF should be worked in a well-ventilated area. The use of a respirator equipped with P2 filter units is highly recommended.
