8x4 Chipboard Red/Pink
Need a full size board that is flat, affordable, and easy to cut? 8×4 chipboard is a practical choice. It works well for everyday interior builds. Smooth panels, clean edges and no surprises when you size it. A good fit for jobs where neat cutting matters more than decorative timber grain and where steady, predictable results save time on site.
What is chipboard sheet 8×4?
Chipboard sheets 8×4 are full size manufactured wood boards made from compressed wood particles. They are pressed into rigid, flat panels with a consistent inner structure. It has no grain lines or knots, only a smooth and even surface.
The standard size is 2440 × 1220 mm, also known as 8 × 4. Boards are supplied in several thickness options and usually come with smooth sanded faces, ready for cutting and further finishing. Most sheets in this format are interior grade panels produced to recognised board standards.
What is chipboard 8 x 4 sheet used for?
Furniture carcasses and cabinet boxes
P2 chipboard is often used for cabinet bodies and internal furniture frames. The sheets cut neatly and keep their shape during assembly.
Shelving and storage panels
12mm chipboard 8×4 works well for lighter shelves and backing panels. 15mm 8×4 chipboard is often selected where spans are slightly wider, and extra stiffness is needed.
Worktops and heavy duty shelves
8×4 chipboard 18mm and 8×4 18mm chipboard sheets are commonly used as a substrate under laminate or veneer surfaces where a thicker base panel is required.
Shopfitting and interior fit-outs
Chipboard sheets 8×4 are frequently used for counters, display bases, boxed sections, and partition infills where panels are later faced, painted, or laminated.
Veneering and laminating projects
Because the surface is smooth and uniform, chipboard 8 x 4 sheets are often selected as a base for decorative laminates and veneer layups.
Backing panels and internal linings
Thinner boards, such as 8×4 chipboard 12mm are useful for large backing pieces, internal dividers, and concealed panels inside fitted furniture.
Types of chipboard sheets 8×4

Melamine faced 8×4 chipboard is a decorative version with a bonded white surface. It is used where a clean, ready finished face is required. Typical uses include cupboards, storage units, and internal fittings where no extra laminating or painting is planned.
