Particleboard containing 20% Eucalyptus nitens, and MDF consisting of 100% Eucalyptus nitens wood were produced industrially at two plants owned by the company MASISA S.A. Normal production parameters for Pinus radiata were maintained. The particleboard produced had the same mechanical and physical properties that MASISA S.A. achieves under normal conditions for Pinus radiata. The MDF panels containing E. nitens did not reach industrial standards. Further investigations are necessary to achieve the required mechanical and physical property standards for MDF boards. The investigation of the properties of these panels indicated that with some process corrections, it will be possible to produce MDF using Eucalyptus nitens.
