What is timber veneer & plywood?Updated 8 months ago

Timber veneer is a form of real timber, meticulously sliced into ultra-thin layers! Unlike man-made fibers, it is derived directly from nature, making it a remarkable choice for those seeking renewable and sustainable resources.

Plywood is a wood-based material fashioned into panels. It consists of numerous thin layers of wood, known as plies or wood veneers, meticulously bonded together in a crosswise pattern (at a 90° angle to each other) along the grain. This construction method imparts exceptional stability and consistency to the material, ensuring that it behaves predictably when it comes to factors such as shrinkage and swelling.
