Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is HDMR the same as HMR board?
No. HDMR is an upgrade from HMR to the highest water resistant standard, V313 tested, and high-density.
Why is V313 testing important for door panels?
Doors face prolonged humidity, from transport to installation and daily use. V313 immersion testing demonstrates that the board can withstand severe moisture exposure, thereby reducing risks such as edge swell, bowing, and delamination.
Will HDMR help with termites or fungal growth?
Yes, HDMR (High-Density Moisture Resistant) board is specifically manufactured to provide resistance against both termites and fungal growth. Rtree uses eucalyptus-based fibre, which has natural resistance and is suitable for Malaysian weather.
Do you sell the HMR board?
No, Rtree does not sell HMR board. We offer HDMR as a superior alternative/replacement for HMR board to deliver better lifecycle results in Malaysia’s climate.
