Description
18mm Egger U540 ST9 Denim Blue Melamine Faced Chipboard 2800 x 2070mm is manufactured in the UK by Egger, part of the Blue Unicolours range within Egger’s wider Uni Colours collection.
Colour and Surface
Denim Blue is a grey-blue with a very muted character, never loud or saturated. It pairs naturally with modern woodgrains that carry some grey in them. Set against white or light timber, it reads cooler and airier. It also works well in a fully blue-grey scheme, layered tone on tone. ST9 Smoothtouch Matt adds a soft, natural feel across the surface. It also handles everyday marks and spills well, staying easy to keep looking clean.
Construction and Performance
This 18mm panel is built on a non-structural core, faced on both sides with resin-impregnated decorative paper pressed into a durable melamine surface, and finished with a square cut edge ready for banding. It takes further cutting and edge banding well for bespoke work. The formaldehyde level meets E05, and fire behaviour is classified D-s2,d0 under EN 13501-1. It is intended for dry interior applications. It can be used for kitchen cabinets and furniture, but should not be installed where the board or exposed edges will be subject to persistent moisture, standing water or direct wetting.
Where to Use It
18mm Egger board U540 ST9 Denim Blue MFC suits a range of interior fit out work:

- Fitted wardrobe doors in a calm, Scandinavian bedroom scheme.
- Office desking and partitions for a cool, modern finish.
- Open shelving set against white or pale timber walls.
