1. Flitch making<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The wooden logs need to be cut in a very specific way. Every log has to be cut in a way that enhances the grain on the final veneers.<\/p>\n

2. Steaming<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After filches are made, they are steamed in boiling vats, which softens them for slicing. This process can also bring out the colour of the wood.<\/p>\n

3. Slicing<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After the wood is softened, filches are sent to slicers which slices them into veneer leaves.<\/p>\n

4. Drying\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The sliced veneer leaves need to have the excess moisture removed from them, for which they are sent to the special dryers.<\/p>\n

5. Clipping\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The sliced veneers are not in proper shape. The leaves are then sent to the clipper with cuts off the edges to bring parallel edges to the veneers.<\/p>\n

6. Splicing and End Tapping\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The leaves are then stitched together seamlessly to produce standard sizes and then end tapped for pressing.<\/p>\n

7. Pressing\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The leaves are then pressed on pre-glued substrates to create veneer panels.<\/p>\n

8. Sanding and Finishing\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Before the veneers are packed, they are sent to sanding areas where they are given the decorative finishing.<\/p>\n

After finishing up, the veneers are ready to decorate your space for years to come.<\/p>\n
