A manufactured material made of compressed wood fibers or other plant fibers bound together with resin, used for construction and furniture.
From 'fiber' (Latin 'fibra') plus 'board' (from Old English 'bord' meaning a flat piece of wood).
Fibreboard is the clever substance behind many modern buildings and furniture pieces—your IKEA shelves, interior walls, and door cores are likely made from it, recycling sawdust into structural material.
