Does anyone know if white melamine board is available with a wooodgrain
effect. I've not found it on the Contiboard web site nor at any of my local
sheds or timber yards.

Yes it is. I bought some a couple of years ago from one of the sheds.
Can't remember which one though.
Mine is like a bleached wood effect.

Yes it is - but you'll probably need to go a specialist supplier such as IDS
(no connection with a former Tory leader!) http://www.idsurfaces.co.uk/
rather than to the usual sheds.

A long time ago, we had some bespoke bedroom furniture made which has a
light ash woodgrain finish. About 4 years ago, we had an extension built
which required the bedroom furniture to be re-jigged and extended - and I
was able to get some material from IDS at Nuneaton (my nearest depot, but
there are several others) which was a very close match to the original. I
think mine is called Blonde Ash, which is a very light beige in colour, but
there's also White Ash - and lots of others - on the list.

I get the impression the OP is asking about WHITE boards not 'bleached' or
'light coloured'. i.e. I presume like the woodgrained panelled doors that
seem tto be popular in new builds nowadays. I do not think I have seen this
material in any of the sheds but I have seen white woodgrained hardboard
somewhere recently but cannot remember where if that's any good.

Thanks for your responses - I suspect that I'm looking for something that
doesn't exist despite being sure that I had seen it in the past. Possibly
the hardboard:-)

It does or did exist. Homebase used to sell shelf kits with what they
called white ash finish. Which was simply off white wood grained melamine.
