Since the 1st of January 1999, EPF, the European Panel federation, represents the European manufacturers of particleboard, MDF and OSB, with a total production in 2010 of more than million m³ of particleboard, more than 11.5 million m³ of MDF and more than 3.5 million
m³ of OSB. EPF thus took over the tasks of FESYP, the European federation of associations of the particleboard manufacturers (founded in 1958), Euro MDF Board, the European federation of MDF manufacturers (founded in 1986) and Feropa, the hard- and softboard producers.
