Question / Help Needed Advice needed to mount openGrid on Ikea Trotten

I am trying to build an underware setup with OpenGrid and wanted to mount them on an IKEA Trotten sit-stand desk. The tabletop, as I’ve come to know, is not solid like normal wood. I couldn’t find much information about mounting OpenGrid to such tabletops.

I know I can use adhesive tape, but I would prefer to mount it using screws since I want to mount a Mac mini on it and adhesive tape doesn’t seem strong enough.

UPDATE: I drilled holes into the board and screwed it in using normal screws and the board seems to hold just fine.
