A composite panel is a type of building material used in place of traditional wood or steel. These panels are much more lightweight than solid wood or steel, but offer similar levels of strength and structural support. There are three basic types of composite panels, including engineered wood, aluminum, and fiberglass units. Each of these panels may consist of multiple layers of the same material or a lightweight core sandwiched between sheets of some type of protective material. Composite wood panels are used in many different construction applications, and have greatly reduced the demand for plywood. Engineered wood panels are used to add structural stability to wall framing, or to construct floors and roofs. Because these panels generally have a smooth, uniform appearance, they can also be used to make doors and furnishings. Many cabinets and other types of furniture are made using a composite panel topped with a thin layer of wood veneer. This can be used to mimic the appearance of solid wood at just a fraction of the cost. Less
