What is Melamine Board?
Melamine board is one of the most popular choices in modern interior design—and for good reason. It combines durability, versatility, and cost-efficiency, making it a smart alternative to high-pressure laminates or solid wood for both residential and commercial spaces.

Indoor Air Safety: Formaldehyde Emission Standards
Formaldehyde is a common resin used in composite wood products. However, prolonged exposure to high levels can affect indoor air quality.
T Design’s melamine boards are certified to the ENF Grade, which is the safest and most stringent level available.
Here’s a comparison of international formaldehyde emission standards: CARB NAF vs ENF vs E1 vs E0 vs JAS 4-Star
E1 Grade
Region: EU / Asia
Emission Limit: ≤ 0.124 mg/m³
Acceptable for general indoor use (baseline standard in many countries)
JAS 4-Star
Region: Japan
Emission Limit: ≤ 0.30 mg/L (≈ E0)
Safer for homes, especially bedrooms and enclosed spaces
E0 Grade
Region: EU / Asia
Emission Limit: ≤ 0.050 mg/m³
Low-emission, suitable for bedrooms and enclosed areas
CARB Phase 2
Region: USA (California)
Emission Limit: ≤ 0.05 ppm or No Added Formaldehyde
Very low emission; eco-certified material
ENF Grade
(T Design Standard)
Region: EU / Global
Emission Limit: ≤ 0.025 mg/m³
Ultra-low emission – best indoor air safety rating
ENF Grade Certified Melamine
At T Design, our melamine boards meet the ENF Grade ≤ 0.025mg/m³ standard—the most stringent emission control level recognized globally. This makes our panels ideal for:
Children’s rooms and nurseries
Bedrooms and enclosed spaces
Homes with pets, elderly, or those with allergies
Eco-conscious renovation projects
Formaldehyde is a common chemical used in adhesives for engineered wood products. While low levels are generally safe, prolonged exposure to high emissions indoors may cause health issues, especially for children, elderly, or those with sensitivities.
That’s why indoor furniture materials must meet strict safety standards. Our melamine boards meet the ENF grade—the most stringent international formaldehyde emission standard.
ENF (European Norm Formaldehyde) is the highest safety rating for formaldehyde emissions in wood-based products.
ENF = Emission ≤ 0.025 mg/m³
Ultra-low emission, ideal for healthy indoor air
Safer than E1 and even E0 grades
We use ENF-grade melamine boards to ensure better air quality for HDB, BTO, offices, and bedrooms.
Here’s a quick breakdown:
E1 Grade: ≤ 0.124 mg/m³ – Common global standard
E0 Grade: ≤ 0.050 mg/m³ – Low-emission, better for homes
ENF Grade: ≤ 0.025 mg/m³ – Best for health and indoor air safety
JAS 4-Star (Japan): Similar to E0
CARB-NAF (USA): No added formaldehyde
Our ENF boards are among the safest and most eco-friendly on the market.
Absolutely. Melamine boards are widely used in Singapore for BTO, HDB, condos, and landed homes. They’re perfect for wardrobes, kitchen cabinets, study desks, and more. Our ENF-certified boards are especially recommended for compact or enclosed spaces in BTOs and older resale flats.
Yes! Because we use ENF-certified melamine boards, they’re ideal for families, especially homes with children, elderly people, or pets. The ultra-low emissions help keep your indoor air clean and safe.
Yes—with proper edge banding and sealing. Our boards are moisture-resistant, making them suitable for kitchen cabinets and vanities. For bathrooms or high-moisture areas, we recommend MDF-core melamine with proper sealing.
Unlike lower-grade panels, ENF Grade melamine boards from T Design are virtually odorless and emit negligible formaldehyde. You won’t experience strong chemical smells, and the panels are tested for long-term indoor safety.
