Posted by Đỗ Tiến Hải at 08/09/2023
Core veneer is a crucial material in woodworking, furniture manufacturing, and interior design. It is widely used for its cost-effectiveness, durability, and aesthetic appeal. But how is core veneer produced, and how is it classified?
In this comprehensive guide, we will explore:
- The production process of core veneer
- Different types and classifications
- Applications in furniture and construction
- Why it’s a preferred choice in Europe and the U.S.
Whether you're a manufacturer, designer, or DIY enthusiast, this article will help you understand core veneer in detail.
1. What Is Core Veneer?
Core veneer is a thin layer of wood, typically between 0.5mm to 3mm thick, bonded to a substrate (such as MDF, plywood, or particleboard) to create a stable and aesthetically pleasing surface.
Key Characteristics:
- Lightweight yet durable
- Cost-effective alternative to solid wood
- Available in various wood species and finishes
- Eco-friendly (uses less raw wood compared to solid timber)
2. How Is Core Veneer Produced?
As we know, the first important thing to produce a perfect plywood board is to use good core veneer, ensuring quality standards.
Core veneer is an important part in creating plywood board with special appearance, mechanical properties, and aesthetics. Selecting and using veneer is important to ensure the plywood board meets the requirements of the specific project.
Understanding that, TTP has been producing good core veneer to serve the production of the company's plywood products according to the following steps:
- Step 1: Classify types of wood and cut each product according to size.
- Step 2: Put the log into the machine to remove bark and rough parts.
- Step 3: Continue to put ebarked logs into machine to separate veneer.
- Step 4: Dry the core veneer
- Step 5: Check moisture and classify each veneer according to quality
The following is TTP's core veneer production video
