Species: Smoked Eucalyptus
Cut: Crown Cut (learn more about veneer cuts )
Finish: Unsanded raw veneer. Must be sanded and sealed with a UV-resistant, clear non-yellowing coating, oil, varnish, stain, or wax.
Thickness: 1.6mm (0.6mm veneer pressed onto a 1mm laminate backing)
Tolerance: ±20mm on dimensions; 60mm/m on flatness
Curve radius: Laminate backed veneer is suitable for gentle curves only. A minimum bending radius of 600mm is recommended. Attempting tighter bends may cause cracking or surface damage and should only be undertaken with specialised equipment and thorough testing at the purchaser’s risk.
Recommended application: Suitable for laminating onto most common wooden substrates. Ideal for doors, wall panels, furniture components, and gently curved surfaces. Not suitable for post-forming or direct application to solid wood.
Gluing: Can be manually glued with contact adhesive or pressed using cold press methods or low-temperature hot presses (maximum 60°C recommended).
Finishing recommendations: Allow at least 4 to 5 days between gluing and finishing to ensure all solvent residues from the adhesive have fully evaporated. This helps prevent issues with coating adhesion and finish quality.
Edging: Matching veneer edging is available from Bord. While we endeavour to find the best match, please note that edging, even if the same species, may not exactly match the face veneer. Note that Laminate backed veneer can also be used to finish panel edges.
