Dry-process MDF is the material that overcomes heterogeneous characteristics of woody resources, and it has been used steadily in many industrial and life fields. In terms of MDF business, raw materials should be considered preferentially because they are responsible for the largest aspect of manufacturing costs. MDF process, which has the process of disassembly into fibers and reassembly into panel, received influence of wood properties such as fiber length, extractives content, and maturity. Looking at the usage of species by region, softwood species are used in Europe and North America, hardwood species are in Asia, respectively. In the case of South Korea, red pine and radiate pine have been mainly used due to optimized manufacture condition and excellent board quality result from long fiber length characteristics. However, the governmental price support for bio-energy industry and the reduction of logging by environmental issues continue to reduce the supply of raw materials for board business. There are two strategies to solve resources shortage problem. Firstly, as a method of moving production bases to overseas regions rich in raw materials, such as Vietnam and Malaysia, it is mainly used by this company (Korea). Once the production is optimized for the new species in the area, it can be successfully profitable. Before, it should be necessary to overcome the problem that it is not easy to build deforestation infrastructure in develop forest area. Secondly, recycled materials is researched and applied by several companies. Outstanding technique and effort are required to solve some problem such as difficulty in perfect refining, low fiber quality, and impurities addition. The particle board business is facing great difficulties that make it impossible to continue in Korea. Domestic products are losing their competitiveness due to cheap imported products. Due to the nature of the business that uses recycled raw materials, the supply problem of raw materials by REC and the deterioration of the supply of construction waste materials by the economic downturn are accelerating these difficulties. The domestic industry is trying to solve the problem through policy measures such as revising the REC inequality clause and filing anti-dumping lawsuits against imported products.
