  • chipboard or fiberboard have been known for more than a hundred years as an alternative for solid wood in the furniture industry, construction, etc.
  • For the quality of wood and / or composite materials several factors play a role, in particular the bulk density, the transverse tensile strength and the thickness, but in many applications the flexural strength.
  • WO 2008/040747 discloses wood and composites containing popcorn. These have the advantage of a low density. However, it is the task of further improving the wood and / or composite material disclosed therein. This is achieved by a wood and / or composite panel according to the present invention. Accordingly, a wood and / or composite sheet is proposed, comprising an upper and a lower cover layer and an intermediate layer, wherein - the intermediate layer contains popcorn and -
