Wood veneer is carefully classified thus providing uniform colour and a high quality. Although it depends on the timber species, quarter cut with a uniform straight vertical grain obtaining an almost. invisible splice line. Therefore, it is preferred through the world by furniture designers, obtaining an almost invisible splice line.
Our veneer rolls do not contain holes, splits, or any other surface imperfections, thus guaranteeing maximum productivity during elaboration process of our veneer edge banding.
Maximum quality in wooden veneer.
Finally, the veneer rolls are wrapped in plastic bags, to preserve wood
qualities.

Fixed Length
For special applications, and at the customer’s request, we can join veneer sheets of a determined length in order to foresee where the joint will show once applied to the board.
The joint between veneers sheets can be:
Zig-Zag / Finger Joint – closed
Straight joint / Butt joint – open
The result being that the joint will not be visible.
Fixed Length
Hot Melt Pre-Glued
A coat of thermofused glue can be applied to the backside of the edge. This glue will melt at 180º.
This product is for application with an edge banding machine that doesn’t have a glue dispenser.
Thermofused edge banding uses heat to bond the edge band to the board. We apply a 120 gr/sq m of glue on the backside of the edge band.
This quantity will ensure a perfect bonding, free of excessive glue between the board and the edge band. The softening point of our glue is 85-90 º C
This quantity will ensure a perfect bonding, free of excessive glue between the board and the edge band.

Soft Sanding and Calibrated Sanding
Soft sanding
The upper face of the edge band can be sanded, thus avoiding the costly manual work of sanding by the customer.
If the product is sanded, we recommend to apply a fleece back,
to ensure stability and reduce cracking and breaking while edge banding
.
Calibrated Sanding
For special projects, we reduce the veneer thickness by means of calibrated sanding, providing higher flexibility to the veneer, and preventing it from cracking when small diameters in curves are a must. The paper base, which sustains the zig-zag joint, is removed in order to ensure a visually even surface at the joint.
Upon customer’s request, thickness can be reduced to a minimum of 30/100mm (0,30mm).
If the veneer is to be calibrated sanded, a fleece back must be applied to its underside.
The veneer surface is flawless and marks free,
to further continue the finishing process (staining, varnishing etc…)
Soft Sanding and Calibrated Sanding
Fleeced
Fleece is a backer that is applied to wood veneer in a lineal process to produce continuous rolls for many different purposes. The different fleece types used are bonded to the veneer with two possible types of glue:
– PVA (white glue): with different grades of resistance to humidity (D3, D4).
– PUR (polyurethane): for maximum resistance to humidity.
Two goals are achieved with the fleece:
– Added consistency to the veneer, thus avoiding splintering and consequent production interruption.
– Added flexibility, a must for shaped (compound) edges.
We have at your disposal several fleece types according to their grammage. A thicker fleece provides higher consistency and flexibility to the veneer. The more we reduce the thickness of the veneer, more flexibility is conferred to it
30 gram fleece it’s the most commonly used. This can be colour-matched to the board, so that when applied, the fleece will remain unnoticed. The backing is compatible with EVA, PUR, PVA or urea glues.

Varnish Options
We offer all painting possibilities on our veneer edgebanding. It is essential that we add 30 gr backing on the back in order to be able to properly varnish the veneer. Using UV varnishes, we can distinguish:
Sanding + background + sanding
– Sheet metal ready to receive the finishing varnish.
– We can serve the fondeado with a more open or more closed pore.
– Flexible UV backgrounds to adapt to angled profiles. In order to avoid breakage problems, we recommend a flexibility test of our product.
– If the product has been stored for several weeks, we recommend sanding it lightly before applying the varnish.
Clear Varnish
– Sheet metal already finished with varnish.
– We can work with open or closed pore, depending on the wood species to be treated.
– The customer has to send us a sample of the surface varnished board so that we can match the gloss to be copied. The gloss levels are adjustable and are measured with a gloss meter (from matt 8 to gloss 80).
Colour, pore and gloss finish varnishing
Finished veneer with varnish, tone and pore, perfectly finished. This product is highly personalised and in each case the type of finish required is assessed with the customer.
Closed pore finishes may require several coats of primer, depending on the porosity of the sheet used.
– The customer has to send us a sample of the surface varnished board so that we can match the gloss to be copied. The gloss levels are adjustable and are measured with a gloss meter (from matt 8 to gloss 80).
– The colour of the edge productions is checked with the board to be copied in a colour comparison chamber under D65 light. Our colourists copy the tone of your finished piece and the degree of gloss. of it.
– This type of varnishing is a surface varnish as the inside of the veneer (the edge) remains in its original tone. When varnishing the surface, the customer must cover the edge of the edge with varnish – or stain plus varnish.
It is essential that you send us a sample of your finished piece in order to be able to make a successful copy.
Please do not hesitate to contact our technical department for further information.
Special finish: patina effect on wood
We introduce into the grain of the wood a stain that can be of different colours, achieving a rustic wood effect. With this special finish, the grain pattern is clearly highlighted.
See black patina effect finish.
Depending on the varnishing systems of our customers we can add a protective film on top of our edgebanding.
This way you can varnish the piece without staining it.
Antibacterial finish
The antibacterial finish is applied as a varnish on the edge surface. The silver ions in the finish adhere to the cell wall and disrupt bacterial growth. It is proven to provide permanent protection 24 hours after application. This process causes a bacterial reduction of up to 99% in less than 24 hours. The effectiveness of the product is guaranteed as long as the top coat is not removed, for example by sanding.

Peel and stick
A self-adhesive glue can be applied to the back of the edge, protected with silicone paper.
By simply removing the paper and applying manual pressure, we can adhere our wooden edging to various surfaces (chipboard, mdf, solid wood, etc.).
Peel and stick
Primer
Sometimes the wood species used is particularly resinous or has very low porosity; this causes poor adhesion with the glues of edgebanding machines.
For these special situations, we can guarantee a correct bonding by applying a first adhesive bridge on the back of the edge. This product is transparent and is not visible in the joint that joins the edge to the board.
In thicknesses of 0.5 mm, normally, a support is applied to solve the adhesion problem and this must be sufficient, since it is the support (fabric) that comes into contact with the adhesive glues to the board.
However, in special cases in which the support cannot be adhered to the sheet due to its excessive resin, we also offer the application of primer directly to the back of the sheet.
Primer
Protective film
On the outside of the sheet metal edge we can apply a low-adhesive protective plastic. This option makes sense on the edges that we already serve varnished and finished.
The plastic allows the edge to be applied to the piece and then the surface of the board to be varnished, either by spray, curtain or roller. Once the piece is finished, the plastic film is removed from the edge. This way the edge is not stained.
Protective film
Hot melt laser coating
Laser pre-gluing is one of the latest technologies in the application of an edge. Its difference with respect to traditional EVA-based glue systems (hot-melt) is that the quality of the gluing joint is maximum. The joint that joins the edge to the board is practically invisible. This makes the finished piece have a more solid appearance and appear to be made (surface and edges) from the same sheet metal and in the same process.
To any wood veneer edge, we can apply a layer of modified polypropylene (on the back), which prepares the edge for use, both in cutting machines laser diode like hot air. The functional polypropylene layer is available in four shades: white, beige (natural), black and brown. Depending on the color of the wood, we use one color or another.
We recommend a prior test of our product so that the client can assess the optimal result of the joint.

Natural species
Natural wood in sheets (veneers) of 0.5 – 0.6 mm thickness.
We can produce with any of the species available on the market (see examples).

Fineline Veneers
Wood in 0.5 – 0.6 mm thick sheets.
Precomposed veneers are low-cost natural veneers that are dyed to the desired shade, pressed to form a block and cut into sheets to achieve the desired grain pattern.
We can produce with any of the species available on the market.
See examples
Fineline Veneers
Dyed veneers
Deep-dyed veneers are natural veneers that undergo an immersion dyeing process. The entire thickness of the sheet (up to the centre) is tinted. This allows to vary the natural colours of the wood, obtaining:
We can produce with any of the species available on the market and achieve the shade desired by the customer.
Dyed veneers
Burl and veneer roots
Root wood in a log is a deformity produced for unknown reasons. This causes the grain of the wood to develop in irregular shapes rather than in a smooth linear pattern. Root wood forms both above and below the ground and is like a protuberance attached to one side of the tree.
We can produce with any of the species available on the market.

Thermo-treated, smoked and aged veneers
Natural wood veneers focused on special decorations due to their exclusivity. It is the reaction of wood to paper products, bringing out their originality, warmth and distinctiveness, attributes that cannot be copied with printed papers.
We can distinguish the following variations of natural veneers:
Thermo-treated:
With a more uniform colour, almost at the level of a tinting. .
Colour sustainability as there are no dyes that can react differently to UV light and therefore cause shade changes.
Smoked (Fumé) Veneers
Aesthetically, it is a natural veneer which features a smoked look, shinny and enhanced by a 3D effect, maintaining live stripes and highlighting the aspect of each log.
The smoked is a treatment based on the reaction of the veneer natural tannins to different chemical agents which change the original colour of the veneer without loosing its natural look. During the smoking process, the chemical elements are neutralized, thus ensuring a 100% natural PH product.
Aged Veneers
This accelerated process has the purpose of featuring a natural aged aspect to the veneer when exposed outdoors. Grey tones which do not follow a set pattern are thus obtained, transferring to the final product a look of aged wood due to sun and weather exposition.
Especially suitable for a rustic touch, cracked, with knots, releasing a unique and different look. Most appropriate product for interior decoration purposes. Application examples:

Sawcut Veneer
Wood veneers with a rustic look following the market trend with embossed surfaces. We offer the most common woods on the market with a deep cross-sectional footprint.
These marks are caused in such a way that some are raised and others sunken. We can differentiate between two types of marks, depending on their degree of inclination:
The standard thickness is 0.7 mm, but we can manufacture in other thicknesses. The visual effect is novel and leaves plenty of scope for design.

Solid End-Grain Edgebanding
Printed Veneer
For special edging and moulding applications, we can print a wood grain pattern on a different wood.
By using economical species, we are able to print the grain of species that command a high price on the market. Al utilizar especies económicas, podemos imprimir el grano de especies que tienen un precio elevado en el mercado. For example, with a low-priced veneer such as okume. On it, we print the tone and grain of Rio Rosewood, Indian Rosewood or Macassar Ebony. The base of the product is real wood. Therefore, the feel and the pore of the product convey that the grain pattern is natural.
With our printing technique, it is also possible to produce hard-to-find mesh-list sheets in very wide sizes (e.g. 20 cm).
