Article describes a new type of fiber boards for the furniture production, developed in cooperation with ATB (Leibniz-Institute for Agricultural Engineering) by using a new method of raw materials preparation and specific production technologies of ATB. The main raw material is aerobically aged hemp stalks. The samples are made of materials with different curing time and varying the binder. Specimens are 8 mm thick and correspond to a medium-density fiberboard, fitting standard BS EN 622. On the experimental processing line 1200x800x8mm size board samples are developed and the tests are performed to determine such parameters as bending strength, perpendicular tensile strength and thickness swelling according to EU standard methods. The proposed material whose main component is the annual renewable resource - hemp stalks could be used for furniture and trim boards.
