you sweep up the floor of a woodwork shop, and collect all sorts of
sawdust, old screws and nails, nail-clippings, bits of dead rat, and
so on, and shove them all in a pot and stir up with a bunch of glue.

you then spread it out to look like board, and heat it at high
pressure till the glue `cures'. and behold! -- you have particle
board.

i expect that, for high-grade particle board, you do you best to keep
the rats out.
