The Advantages of Veneer Surfacing

by Greenlam Industries Greenlam Industries
Veneers are a type of surfacing material made from a top layer of authentic timber pasted over a base layer of Gurjan plywood. They have gained great popularity in recent years and are used widely to resurface the interiors of homes, offices, retail units, etc. They are highly favored by architects, interior designers and property owners alike.

Advantages of veneer surfacing:

As a surfacing solution, veneers offer a number of advantages and benefits. Some of these have been listed below for your convenience.

  • Aesthetics: Veneers have a top layer of authentic timber. Therefore, they can enhance the visual appeal of your interiors by granting it the elegance and beauty of natural wood grains. Veneer surfacing can therefore provide you with the aesthetic appeal of solid wood without any of its drawbacks. It can make your furnishings look high-end and expensive. 
  • Termites: A stringent five-step preservative treatment is utilized by the best veneer manufacturers to make veneer sheets resistant to termite and borer infestations. This makes veneer surfacing the perfect solution for those who want the natural appeal of wood in their interiors but without the maintenance hassles associated with solid wood furnishings. 
  • Maintenance: Additionally, unlike solid wood furnishings, furniture surfaced with veneers does not need to be polished, lacquered and refinished on a regular basis. They do not entail any long-term maintenance hassles and require very little by way of repairs and upkeep. The best veneer sheets are made with the help of state of the art technology that makes them durable and low maintenance.
  • Variety: Veneers can be availed in a variety of types and categories, according to the needs, tastes and preferences of the buyer. You can buy teakwood, noirwood, engineered or natural wood veneers while also having a wide array of choices when it comes to veneer surfaces, wood species, etc. Exotic wood species like teak, oak and mahogany are sourced ethically from around the world in order to manufacture the highest quality veneer sheets.
  • Ecofriendly: Only the top layer of a veneer sheet is made from authentic hardwood. As a result, veneer surfacing requires far less wood than solid wooden furniture. They grant the same aesthetic appeal to your interiors without requiring the felling of as many trees. Therefore, this makes veneers an ecofriendly and environmentally sustainable surfacing solution.

Technology

As mentioned above, state of the art technology is used by the most reputed manufacturers to produce high-quality and durable veneers that can retain their beauty for years with little upkeep. Some of these advanced technologies have been mentioned below.

  • MITT: The highly advanced Melamine Impregnated Tacking Technology (MITT) ensures and facilitates the perfect bonding of the two layers of a veneer sheet. The bonding of the top layer of authentic hardwood with the substrate layer of Gurjan plywood results in the high bonding strength of veneers. This unique manufacturing process, along with the use of seasoned wood, also guarantees the consistency of veneer thickness. 
  • TD: This technology leads to a significant reduction in the hygroscopicity of veneers, which leads to the enhanced thermal and dimensional stability of veneer sheets. It also helps increase the resistance of veneers against deformation and collapse during compression by further stiffening the veneer surface. This technology enhances the refractive index of the veneer surface, thus improving the color fastness properties of the veneer sheet by reducing the effect of ultraviolet radiation on the veneer.

Hence, you should contact a reputed manufacturer of veneer sheets operating in your vicinity in order to avail the highest quality natural wood veneers and other varieties of the surfacing material at competitive rates.
