Why HDHMR is the Future of Interior Design

Discover how High-Density High-Moisture Resistant boards are revolutionizing furniture manufacturing in India with superior performance and durability.

What is HDHMR?

HDHMR (High-Density High-Moisture Resistant) is an engineered wood product specifically designed for India's challenging climate conditions. Unlike traditional MDF or plywood, HDHMR boards are manufactured using advanced technology that creates a denser, more moisture-resistant material.

The manufacturing process involves breaking down wood fibers to uniform size, mixing them with specially formulated moisture-resistant resins, and forming them under high pressure and temperature. This results in a board that combines the best properties of both MDF and plywood.

First introduced in India in the early 2000s, HDHMR has quickly become the preferred choice for premium furniture manufacturers and interior designers who demand superior performance and finish quality.
