How to read a board code
MFC MS 388 EV
An Cường: MFC is the board type (melamine-faced particleboard), MS 388 is the decor code and EV is the surface. One decor can come in several surfaces such as SH, PL and MM, so give all three parts when you order. Acrylic codes look like ACRYLIC PARC 100.
LK 4405 A
An Cường Laminate: LK, LF and LL are the Laminate range prefixes, 4405 is the decor code and A is the surface. Some Laminate codes have no surface part.
BT 69 MM
Ba Thanh: BT is the Ba Thanh prefix, 69 is the color number and MM is the flat matt surface. Other surfaces are H (long straight grain), EV (fine brushed), T (light texture) and G (mirror gloss).
S9 21416 EV
KES: S9 is Series 9 (S6 is Series 6, ST is Signature), 21416 is the decor code and EV is the surface. The same decor can exist in both Series 6 and Series 9; the two differ in the board core.
