Paperback Veneer for Rigid Pressing
Flexible and ultra-thin, paperback-backed veneer excels in PVA rigid bond applications. Best suited for cold, hot, or vacuum pressing, this option is not recommended for contact adhesives. It’s ideal when precise, strong bonds are needed. Formats include 4×8 to 4×12 and 5×8 to 5×10, offering versatility for a range of woodworking projects.
Phenolic Backed Veneer Strength
For maximum rigidity, hardwood veneer with phenolic backing delivers unmatched stability. Thicker than PolyBak™, it’s well-suited for contact adhesives and excels in cold or hot pressing with PVA. When strength, durability, and dependable performance matter, phenolic backer panels are a top-tier choice. Available in sizes 4×8 and 4×10 for streamlined fabrication.
