Flexible veneers & paperbacked veneers are used for bonding to an existing substrate on site, e.g. via the use of a vacuum press. Flexible veneers are most often used where a curved surface is required, while jointed veneer layons and paperbacked veneers are most often used with flat surfaces for customers with their own hydraulic press.
Paperbacked veneers can be produced to specific design using any one of our range of 350+ veneers & inlays - or any other veneer specified, e.g. dyed veneers. These veneer sheets can be supplied as a sequence or pairs so consecutive sheets match their neighbours.
