Veneer slicing
The wood veneer is sliced directly into the log in thin layons or leaves of 0,6mm thick. Veneer layons are laminated onto a substrate : MDF, Particle Board or plywood
The aesthetic aspect of the Oberflex veneer panels depend on various factors :
- the selected veneer characteristics (grain, color, homogeneity, specificities…)
- the slicing method (quarter cut, flat cut, rotating cut…)
- the jointing : the way veneer layons will be jointed one next to the other to produce a full panel
According to the technique used to slice the logs, the aspect of the veneer layons or leaves is different. There are three main slicing methods :
Flat Cut
Flat cut slicing provides a flowered grain veneer
Quarter Cut
Quarter cut slicing provides a straight grain veneer
Rotary Cut
Rotary cut slicing gives a random grain veneer.
