Veneer

We stock and custom order beautiful flitches of domestic, exotic and reconstituted veneer ranging in grade, size and thickness. Our veneer is also available in FSC, architectural, panel, furniture and backing quality. We can help you find the right grain, colour and type of wood you are looking for.

Reconstituted / Engineered Wood Veneer

These veneers are an alternative to using natural growth woods. This allows for the use of less desirable wood species to be introduced into a market dedicated to the Architectural and Designer community. Also allowing for a consistent and controlled look throughout an entire project, where grain and color are important from beginning to end.

Reconstituted veneer is made by laminating a block of veneers from what one would call the “edge” of the block. The layers of veneer are laminated together and the edges of the laminated veneer become the “grain” of the reconstituted veneer, giving it a very straight-grained look. By maneuvering the contour of the laminations in the block form, any desired configuration can be attained. Reconstituted Veneer may be dyed as well to match any color of your request. This product allows the “natural” substance to be maintained while freeing the designer to manipulate his/her own horizons.

Realtec Veneer

A natural veneer, embossed with figure to produce a consistent, flawless resemblance to natural figure. This patented process was developed in Japan, and we are a dealer for the exclusive Canadian distributor, Birchland Plywood-Veneer Ltd. Lengths are available in 8’, 10’ & 12’ flitch size, spliced faces or as hardwood plywood on any substrate. Log flitches can be easily matched for large jobs or continuous production, since the figure remains consistent throughout all the veneer.
