Hardboard vs HDF - Different boards, different strengths. The right choice comes down to the application.

Hardboard is thin, economical and ideal for backing panels, drawer bottoms and lightweight applications.

HDF is denser and stronger, making it better suited to cabinetry, furniture, flooring and applications that require greater durability and machining.

Client Project Spotlight: Oranjezicht City Farm Market, V&A Waterfront, Cape Town 🤩📍

was appointed by CNDV Architectural Landscapes, in collaboration with market owners Sheryl Ozinsky and Caz Friedman, to help bring the vision for the new market to life.

Their scope included the manufacture and installation of all timber pergolas, bespoke timber structures and the extensive elevated timber decking that forms the market’s main seating area. The deck provides a comfortable gathering space while showcasing spectacular views of Cape Town’s working harbour and waterfront.

Completed with precision and close coordination, the timber structures complement the architectural design while creating a durable, inviting outdoor space that enhances the market experience.
