Fiberboard or chipboard is made by first comminuting vegetable starting material in a first comminutor into a stream of loose plant particles with silicate particles. Then, in a first classifier silicate particles of a diameter of less than 50 μm are separated from the plant particles of the stream. The plant particles remaining in the stream are then glue-coated, and the stream is pressed into fiberboard or chipboard.
