A wood veneer is a thin slice of wood, which are pasted onto the core panels to produce strong and flat surfaces. Commonly used as a surfacing material for doors, wall panels, and furniture, wood veneers are available in a wide variety choose different decors and themes, and offer the same visual appeal as of solid wood, albeit at a much lower price point and with a better material. If you too are looking for a surfacing material for any application, wood veneers deserve some serious consideration. Read on as we list some of the key reasons to include wood veneers in your next project.
Lifespan
Real wood veneer sheets are not so much so an ‘expense’, but are more of a long term ‘investment’. Premium quality veneer sheets can easily last for decades, depending on the intended use. The veneer sheets may get scratched over time if not used carefully, but they can easily be repaired.
Maintenance
Wood veneer is also easy to maintain and repair in case of damage; this means you can repair the furniture to look brand new again without much effort. For cleaning, one can simply use a dry cloth and for stains, a mild cleansing agent can be used. As the outer layer of wood veneer is made using real wood, it can be easily refinished whenever needed.
Warp Resistance
Another key attribute of wood veneer sheets is warp-resistance, which is a major advantage over other options such as solid wood. Veneer sheets retain their appearance over time whereas solid wood is quite prone to warping. That also explains the reason why an increasing number of architects and builders are choosing wood veneers over solid wood.
VOC Free
