Medium/high density fibreboard (MDF/HDF) — Production in Brazil, 1995–2024
Source: Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. Measured in m3.
Analysis
In 2024, medium/high density fibreboard (mdf/hdf) — production in Brazil stood at 6.40 million m3.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 20.3% on the previous year and up 44.4% over ten years.
Over the whole period, medium/high density fibreboard (mdf/hdf) — production in Brazil peaked at 6.84 million m3 in 2021 and was at its lowest, 0 m3, in 1995.
That places Brazil 5th out of 90 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top 10%.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
The database contains data on the production and trade in roundwood and in primary wood and paper products for all countries and territories in the world.The main types of primary forest products included in this database are roundwood, sawnwood, wood-based panels, pulp, and paper and paperboard. These products are detailed further and defined in the Joint Forest Sector Questionnaire (JFSQ) (https://www.fao.org/statistics/data-collection/forestry/en). The database contains details of the following topics: - roundwood removals (production) by coniferous and non-coniferous wood and assortments, - production and trade in industrial roundwood, sawnwood, wood-based panels, wood charcoal, pulp, paper and paperboard, and other products. More detailed information on wood products, including definitions, can be found at: https://www.fao.org/statistics/data-collection/forestry/en
