3mm Laser Compatible Black Painted MDF, 800mm x 600mm sheet
These 3mm laser-compatible black-painted MDF sheets, measuring 800mm x 600mm, offer all the same qualities as our standard MDF lines but with a nice black finish. This comes into its own when laser engraving, as there will be a nice contrast between the black finish and the underlying MDF material. One side of these MDF sheets is painted and the other is a standard MDF finish.
Our laser MDFs are EU class E1, which means low formaldehyde emissions. It is this low formaldehyde emission that makes this MDF suitable for laser cutting.
Please note:
As wood is a natural product, there is often a crook or bow to the sheet. The natural twist might be in excess of 10mm (see below – Tolerances and Caution).
This product conforms to E1 (low) formaldehyde levels as well as also complying with the lower levels required by CARB phase 2 (CARB Phase 2 compliant <0.11ppm).
This product is often described as ‘Laser Grade’ MDF but there is no official classification for this. We believe that E1 conforming MDF is the safest and best MDF for use in a laser cutter.

- Suitable for use with a laser cutter.

Tolerances:
The manufacturing tolerance for the thickness of MDF sheets is the stated thickness +/-0.15mm. This means a 3mm MDF sheet could be between 2.85mm and 3.15mm in thickness.
Caution:
- As wood is a natural product there is often a bow or crook to the MDF and in some cases a twist. We have measured in excess of 10mm rise between the flat centre of the MDF and the corner. If you are using this product on a laser cutter; these sheets should be strapped/taped to the laser bed before cutting.
