Solid Wood:
Composition: Solid wood is made entirely from natural wood, with no engineered components. It comes directly from lumber and is not processed or layered like the other options.
Strength: Solid wood is the strongest and most durable of these materials, with natural beauty and character.
Uses: Solid wood is used for high-quality furniture, cabinetry, flooring, and other premium applications.
Finish: It can be sanded, stained, and finished to bring out its natural beauty.

Plywood:
Composition: Plywood is made by layering thin sheets of wood veneer with each layer oriented at right angles to the previous one and then bonding them with adhesive.
Strength: Plywood is strong, durable, and resistant to warping or twisting. It has good load-bearing capacity.
Layers: Plywood typically has multiple layers (plies), with an odd number of layers for stability.
Uses: It is used in a wide range of applications, including furniture, cabinetry, subflooring, and structural construction.
Finish: Depending on the grade and type, plywood can have a smooth, sanded surface or a textured finish.

MDF (Medium-Density Fiberboard):
Composition: MDF is made from wood fibers, wax, and resin that are compressed and heated to create a dense, uniform sheet of material.
Density: MDF is denser than particleboard, with a smooth and consistent surface.
Strength: It is stronger and more stable than particleboard, making it suitable for applications that require a smooth finish and intricate details.
Finish: MDF has a smooth, paintable surface that is ideal for cabinetry, furniture, and molding.
Weight: It is heavier than particleboard but lighter than plywood.
