What is veneer? Veneer is a layer of wood cut or peeled off a tree trunk.

In the process, the trunks are boiled for 48 hours to make the wood malleable, and the bark

is removed. A log is then spun around its own axis against a cutter bar that sheers a thin continuous sheet of veneer off the log layer by layer. The roll of veneer is then separated into thin individual sheets. Veneer can be manufactured from more than 200 types of wood.

Veneer allows for the most economical use of wood, a valuable resource. Enough veneer for the furniture for 16 bedrooms can be created from 1 m³ of wood! The shavings and other waste products from the manufacturing process are made in to particle board or used in the production of energy.

Did you know: Plywood is also made of veneer. A wooden board made from a number of layers of veneer glued together is called plywood.
