Fixing and buying guide

What this product is and who it is for

This is a primed MDF moulding profile with an ovolo (rounded) edge detail. It is designed for builders, carpenters, and serious DIYers who need a reliable, smooth-finish moulding for interior projects. The moisture-resistant coating makes it more durable than standard MDF in areas prone to humidity, such as kitchens and bathrooms. FSC certification confirms responsible sourcing.

Sizing and pack contents

You receive one length of 5.49 metres. The profile measures 18mm thick by 117mm wide, making it substantial enough for load-bearing shelving or prominent wall partitioning. Measure your project carefully and plan cuts to minimise waste; the profiled design helps you work efficiently across the full length.

• Single 5.49m length per pack
• 18mm thickness provides structural strength
• 117mm width suits both decorative and functional applications
• Ovolo profile reduces visible edges and adds visual interest

Compatibility and fixing

This profile works with standard wood adhesives and mechanical fasteners such as screws, nails, and dowels. The primed surface is ready to accept paint or stain, though you may wish to sand lightly and apply additional primer to cut edges and screw holes. Check that your chosen adhesive and fasteners are suitable for MDF before purchase.

• Compatible with standard wood adhesives
• Accepts screws, nails, and dowels
• Primed finish ready for painting or staining
• Sand cut edges before finishing for best results

Pre-installation checks

Inspect the length for any damage or warping before fixing. Store flat and indoors in a dry environment until use. Ensure your supporting structure (wall, frame, or shelf) is level and secure. The moisture-resistant coating protects the MDF, but avoid prolonged exposure to standing water or high humidity without adequate ventilation. Allow any applied paint or stain to cure fully before subjecting the profile to load or moisture.
