MDF & Plywood Machining
CNC routing and laser cutting of MDF and plywood for signage, furniture, joinery, and custom components.
P&M Plastics provides precision CNC routing and laser cutting services for MDF (Medium-Density Fibreboard) and plywood, extending our machining capabilities beyond plastics into timber-based sheet materials. Our CNC router delivers tight-tolerance profile cutting, pocket routing, rebating, drilling, and full 3D relief machining on MDF and plywood sheets up to 2440mm × 1220mm.
Whether you need flat-pack furniture components, custom joinery parts, architectural panels, retail signage, exhibition displays, or prototype moulds, our CNC equipment produces accurate, repeatable results from your CAD files.
For thinner MDF and plywood (typically up to 6mm), our CO2 laser provides intricate detail cutting, fine fretwork, and decorative patterns that would be difficult or impossible with traditional tooling. Laser cutting also enables precision engraving and etching on timber surfaces for branding, wayfinding signage, awards, and decorative features.
We work with standard MDF, moisture-resistant MDF (MR MDF), lightweight MDF, hoop pine plywood, birch plywood, marine plywood, and formply.
Our team can advise on the best board type for your specific application, whether it requires moisture resistance, structural strength, a paintable surface, or a natural timber finish. From one-off prototypes to bulk production runs, we handle projects of all sizes with fast turnaround and accurate quoting.
