Engineered wood, also called composite wood, man-made wood, or manufactured board, includes a range of derivative wood products which are manufactured by binding or fixing the strands, particles, fibres, or veneers or boards of wood, together with adhesives, or other methods of fixation to form composite materials.

These products are engineered to precise design specifications which are tested to meet national or international standards.

Engineered wood products are used in a variety of applications, from home construction to commercial buildings to industrial products.

The products can be used for joists and beams that replace steel in many building projects.

Laminate flooring (also called floating wood tile in the United States) is a multi-layer synthetic flooring product fused together with a lamination process.

Laminate flooring simulates wood (or sometimes stone) with a photographic applique layer under a clear protective layer.

The inner core layer is usually composed of melamine resin and fiber board materials.

There is a European Standard No. specifying laminate floor covering requirements and testing methods.

Cork is an impermeable buoyant material, the phellem layer of bark tissue that is harvested for commercial use primarily from Quercus suber (the Cork Oak), which is endemic to southwest Europe and northwest Africa.

Cork is composed of suberin, a hydrophobic substance and, because of its impermeable, buoyant, elastic, and fire retardant properties, it is used in a variety of products, the most common of which is wine stoppers.

The montado landscape of Portugal produces approximately half of cork harvested annually worldwide, with Corticeira Amorim being the leading company in the industry.

Cork was examined microscopically by Robert Hooke, which led to his discovery and naming of the cell.

The bamboos are evergreen perennial flowering plants in the subfamily Bambusoideae of the grass family Poaceae.

In bamboo, as in other grasses, the internodal regions of the stem are usually hollow and the vascular bundles in the cross section are scattered throughout the stem instead of in a cylindrical arrangement.

The dicotyledonous woody xylem is also absent.

The absence of secondary growth wood causes the stems of monocots, including the palms and large bamboos, to be columnar rather than tapering.
