Contiboard
Contiboard has been offering an alternative to ill fitting, mass-produced, flat packed furniture for over 30 years. The versatile nature and wide range of appealing finishes of our boards means that during that time they have been made into wardrobes, cupboards, shelving, storage boxes, tables… whatever you could think of really: some weird, all wonderful.

Conti iron-on edging tape:
Conti iron-on edging tape can be used to conceal the exposed edges of Contiboard
- Use an electric iron to apply the edging. First heat the edge of the board by running the hot iron along its surface then position the Conti edging tape along the length, leave a 12mm overhang on either end. To prevent scorching the tape, use a layer of brown paper between the iron and the edging tape. Run the iron along the edge using a downwards and forwards pressure.
- To ensure good adhesion, immediately after the tape has ‘set’ run a piece of rounded timber over the surface.
- When cool, trim the edges with a sharp trimming knife.
- The slight remaining overhang is best removed by using glasspaper wrapped around a small block, and by working at the right angle you will avoid scratching the surface.
Loft Panels:
Also available from Conti are Loft Storage panels, made from high density Particleboard. These panels are the ideal solution for boarding out your loft or other storage space.
