Tafisa 178 Classic White Melamine describes a board where decorative melamine layers are pressed and thermo-fused in one step to a particle board core, giving a uniform surface that supports consistent machining and layout across a project. The 1/4 inch thickness provides a thinner panel profile that suits applications needing reduced weight or slimmer components while still using a structured board product. The 49 x 97 size offers extra width beyond a standard 4 x 8 format, allowing parts to be nested to reduce seams on wider cabinet, closet, or fixture sections. Being double sided with the 178 Classic White color keeps both faces visually consistent, which matters when exposed interiors, dividers, or panels can be seen from multiple directions. The Crystalite texture defines a specific surface feel that affects how light reflects on finished panel faces.
The 1/4 inch thickness on this Tafisa 178 Classic White Melamine panel affects how it is integrated into assemblies, because thinner panels often function as backs, drawer bottoms, or lightweight partitions while still benefiting from a melamine surface. The 49 x 97 format works with common panel saws and CNC layouts, providing an expanded width that can change cut lists by allowing larger or more efficient parts from each sheet. The particle board or MDF core works with standard woodworking blades and bits designed for engineered panels, which supports repeatable cutting and boring during cabinet, closet, or casework production. Having both faces in 178 Classic White with Crystalite texture allows parts cut from this sheet to align visually when multiple pieces are placed side by side in finished work.
The Tafisa 178 Classic White Melamine panel with 1/4 inch thickness and 49 x 97 size fits work that benefits from a thinner, melamine-faced board such as interior paneling, cabinet backs, or case partitions where a finished white face is required on both sides. The double sided 178 Classic White color means parts can flip or rotate during layout without changing visible appearance, which helps when optimizing yield on a panel saw or CNC. The particle board or MDF core supports routs, dados, and cutouts typical in cabinetry and woodworking, providing a familiar substrate for installers and fabricators. The Crystalite texture on both faces gives a consistent tactile and visual surface, which matters when multiple panels form a continuous run in applications like closets or built-ins.
The fact that the decorative layers are pressed and thermo-fused to the core in one step creates a bonded melamine surface that is part of the panel rather than a separate layer, helping maintain surface integrity when edges are cut or machined. This one-step process also yields the same Crystalite texture on both faces, which keeps reflection and texture alignment predictable when panels are joined or when doors and panels are aligned in a run. The Crystalite surface combined with the 178 Classic White color provides a specific finish that can be repeated across multiple sheets, aiding color and texture continuity for larger jobs. Using a particle board or MDF core under this thermo-fused surface lets fabricators use established handling, cutting, and fastening methods associated with engineered core panels while still delivering the melamine finish specified in the design.
The Tafisa 178 Classic White Melamine board uses a particle board or MDF core, so it behaves like an engineered wood panel during cutting, boring, and general fabrication.
The panel has a 1/4 inch thickness, which suits applications needing a thinner board such as backs, panels, or partitions while still using a melamine-faced sheet.
The sheet size is 49 x 97, offering slightly more width than a typical 4 x 8 panel and supporting layouts that need wider parts from a single sheet.
The Tafisa 178 Classic White Melamine board is double sided with the 178 Classic White color, allowing either face to be used as the visible surface.
The panel has a Crystalite texture, giving a defined surface feel and appearance that influences light reflection and tactile character in finished installations.
The top and bottom impregnated decorative layers are pressed and thermo-fused to the particle board in one step, forming an integrated melamine-faced panel for fabrication.
The Tafisa 178 Classic White Melamine panel with a 1/4 inch thickness, 49 x 97 dimensions, and Crystalite texture offers a defined option when a double sided white melamine surface is specified. The particle board or MDF core combined with one-step pressed and thermo-fused decorative layers creates a panel ready for standard shop tooling. Using the Tafisa BTDA200761 panel lets fabricators match the 178 Classic White color and Crystalite texture across projects that call for this specific Tafisa melamine board.
