The Composite Panel Association
The Composite Panel Association
(CPA) is the North American trade
association for the particleboard,
medium density fiberboard (MDF),
hardboard/fiberboard (HB), and
other related/compatible industries.
CPA is dedicated to increasing the
acceptance and use of industry
products and educating users about
the benefits of these products.
The CPA was founded in 1960, and
represents industry on technical,
regulatory, quality assurance and
product acceptance issues.
CPA membership currently
includes 39 of the leading North
American producers of industry
products. Together they represent
95 percent of total North American
manufacturing capacity of these
products.
The CPA’s Grademark Certification
Program is the most rigorous of its
kind in North America. Certification
includes on-site plant audits and
laboratory testing of industry
products. Look for the CPA
Grademark on composite panels.
An affiliated organization, the
Composite Wood Council (CWC) was
formed in 1989 to broaden
participation in industry educational
and promotional programs.
Membership in the CWC is highly
diverse and includes more than 190
companies worldwide, including all
members of the Composite Panel
Association. Programs and activities
of the CPA and CWC complement
each other.
