Moisture Resistant (MR) MDF is the perfect material for skirting boards for bathrooms, aside from tiles or stone products. The MDF itself has been manufactured with specific properties that allow it to function properly in areas where the moisture content in the air is high, such as bathrooms and some kitchens. You can find out more about the specification and the properties of the MDF we use by following the link to https://www.skirting4u.co.uk/blog/post/what-mdf-do-we-use. It is more and more popular solution to achieve unified vertical surfaces of interior. This creates harmonized structure of walls. But it is crucial to pay attention to colours as each producer may have slightly different shade so even something as simple as white skirting can vary from one to another. Currently the most popular solution is to determine colours by the RAL palette. So a white skirtings in this system would be depicted by code RAL 9003. So when comparing shapes, width, length between different producers there is greater chance of choosing the same colour when RAL code is given. Since last year there are more designs of interiors using different shades of grey for doors and matching them with skirtings – the two most popular are RAL 7035 and RAL 7042.

Summary Simple slot together system - Simply glue the external and internal corner pieces into place for an easy, no hassle installation. One less DIY chore to worry about The term “Moisture Resistant” really means that this specification of MDF has a very dense core that will not absorb moisture from the air. This in turn stops it from swelling and distorting, or decaying over time as a result of exposure to moisture. Our MDF is already moisture resistant, but a coat of primer and undercoat will improve this. It helps to create a seal against the moisture present in the air. When we add a design to the board, we break the seal of the MDF - this is where the finishing helps with added protection against moisture.
Skirting boards 6-8 cm in height are the most popular and typical solution. They can be used in almost every room. This height will keep natural proportions of the room. Moisture resistant MDF is made for use in areas where the moisture content in the air is higher than normal - for instance, an average bathroom. HDF is stronger and harder than MDF. Compared to natural wood, High Density MDF doesn't swell at all making surface decoration much easier. HDF skirting boards are perfect in areas where moisture is present (bathrooms etc.) and where flooring that requires frequent mopping is installed.

The biggest downside to using plastic skirting boards, and this applies across any type of material really – it looks cheap compared with wood which has a natural appearance that improves over time when oiled or varnished The phrase moisture resistant is used to describe boards that have a very dense core. This prevents the material from absorbing moisture and ensures that it lasts a lifetime (if not more!). Priming / Undercoating Adds Another Layer Of Protection
