Urea formaldehyde is an important chemical used predominantly to manufacture wood adhesives, binders and particleboard. Urea formaldehyde resin or UF resin is a thermosetting phenol-formaldehyde resin whose compounds are used in furniture, plywood subfloors, medium density fiberboard (MDF) and particle board. It improves the strength and hardness of wood and provides moisture and pest resistance. Urea formaldehyde resin exhibits excellent adhesion to wood and moisture resistance. It produces a hard, rigid and durable final product at economical costs.

The Global Urea Formaldehyde Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 17521.61 Bn in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 22% over the forecast period 2024 To 2031.
