The objective of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of the use of Grevillea robusta for particleboard manufacturing. The boards were manufactured in the densities of 0,60 and 0,80 g/cm³ and resin contents of 6 and 8%. The results of physical and mechanical properties of the boards manufactured with 0,80 g/cm³ density and 6% resin content, showed that Grevillea robusta wood may be used as alternative raw material for particleboard manufacturing.
