MDF Elm mix veneer: what is it?

MDF is a popular board material that can be used for countless projects. MDF veneered is a standard MDF board with a top layer of oak. The top layer is meant to be kept in sight; the bottom layer is made of technical veneer and is meant to reinforce the board. Because the core of these panels is MDF, this panel is also good and easy to assemble. That's really convenient!

MDF Elm mix veneer, sheet material with a natural surface layer

Unlike melaminated board material, the top layer of veneered panels is a layer of real wood. This gives the material a calm, natural look. Because it is a natural product, there may be colour and texture differences between different panels. No two panels are the same. In addition, it is important that this panel is finished with a lacquer or oil as desired. This prevents discolouration and preserves the top layer. 

Veneered board material has the big advantage over solid board material that it does not warp. The MDF core of this board material gives it the advantages of MDF, but the appearance of solid and natural wood. 

Elm veneer

Wood veneer with elm appearance has a light and bright aesthetic, characterised by a pale yellow to light brown colour and a fine, even grain without too many prominent patterns or markings.

The look of elm veneer is simple and timeless, making it a good match for various interior styles. The colour of the veneer usually ranges from light to medium brown, depending on the specific source and treatment of the wood.

Elm wood veneer is often appreciated for its subtle and elegant appearance, and it can be used for furniture, cabinets, interior finishes and decorative elements. Its even grain and bright colour allow elm veneer to be effortlessly integrated into a variety of designs, from traditional to modern, adding a sense of simple beauty and sophistication to interiors.

Crown cut or Quartered veneer

Cutting logs is usually done in two different ways: crown / plain or kwartiers. When the wood is cut crown / plain, long slices are cut lengthwise. This allows the flames of the material to be clearly seen and makes the best use of the wood. When the wood is kwartiers cut, it is cut with the grain. This gives kwartiers sawn timber a calm appearance and relatively straight lines. In mix, these two techniques are processed interchangeably and used during the compilation of the veneer. This creates a natural whole and makes each slab unique.

Processing of MDF Elm mix veneer boards

The board consists of wood fibres compressed under high pressure. This makes the material easy to work with. When milling or sawing, this board material does not splinter. The fibres are held together by resin. This makes it important to degrease the board well before lacquering the material. Veneered MDF is only suitable for indoor applications and in dry conditions.

Specific applications of veneered oak

MDF is the material of choice for furniture and interior applications. Veneer MDF, also known as veneer MDF, is a versatile board suitable for various interior applications. A door, an enclosure for pipework, a bookshelf, a TV cabinet and a partition are some examples of the application possibilities of veneered MDF. Its homogeneous structure makes MDF less susceptible to shrinking and expanding at varying temperatures compared to other board materials. MDF veneer is not suitable for use in damp rooms or outdoors.
