FlexVen™ 10 Mil & FlexVen™ 20 Mil

paperbacked wood veneer

The FlexVen™ 10 mil backer is very flexible and is a great choice for pressing on contoured or flat surfaces. If you don’t have a press, the extra stability and thickness of FlexVen™ 20 mil backer is ideally suited for use with contact cement.

Tuf-Pli™

polyback wood veneer

When you need added strength and durability but want to maintain flexibility Tuf-Pli™ wood veneer is your choice. Tuf-Pli™ is natural wood veneer bonded to a polymer resin backer giving it extra stability and durability while maintaining its flexibility. This is an excellent alternative to traditional laminate backed veneer which is stiff and more susceptible to breaking or splitting.

  • Rivals the durability of laminate back veneer while providing superior flexibility
  • Dimensionally more stable and resistant to movement
  • Reduces the chances of bubbling and substrate telegraphing
  • Resistant to tearing or damage
  • Production sanded to 150 grit
  • Available in most domestic species in 4’x8′ and 4’x10′ sheets

Pli-Flex™

2-ply or wood on wood veneer

When your project calls for all wood veneer sheets 2-Ply wood backed veneer is the product for you. Pli-Flex™ is a quality veneer face laminated to a cross grain veneer backer. The perpendicular grain between the two layers adds stability and flexibility to the veneer sheet and the extra thickness helps to protect against substrate telegraphing. The all wood construction of wood on wood sheets also helps to camouflage edge lines giving your project a cleaner appearance.

  • Dimensionally stable and resistant to movement
  • Reduced edge lines
  • Resistant to bubbling and substrate telegraphing
  • Increased flexibility
  • Faces production sanded to 150 grit
  • Available in most domestic species in 4’x8′ and 4’x10′ sheets

Reconstituted Veneer

eco-friendly wood veneer

WiseWood Veneer is pleased to offer our reconstituted veneer as an environmentally friendly alternative to some of the more rare and expensive exotic wood species. It’s also a great option for those projects where veneer color and consistency is critical from start to finish. Made with fast growing renewable natural wood sources, reconstituted veneer is produced by laminating different colors of dyed veneer in alternating layers. This process produces natural looking wood grains and colors thought only to exist in nature… until now.

  • Environmentally friendly and responsibly produced
  • Free from natural defects and anomalies
  • Color and grain consistent from sheet to sheet
  • Real wood, not plastic laminate
  • More affordable than many expensive exotic species

It is strongly recommended that all veneer sheets got through an acclimation process. Wood veneer is a versatile, organic material that reacts to changes in environmental conditions. Veneer is hygroscopic which means it emits and absorbs moisture. When you receive your veneer it needs to acclimatize to conditions in your environment to reach equilibrium. The ideal environment to achieve equilibrium with your veneer is defined as 30-55% relative humidity at a temperature range between 55-85 degrees F. Prior to application, allow your veneer a minimum of 48-72 hours lying flat out of the box within the range of conditions stated. It’s also important that your substrate be acclimatized in the same conditions as the veneer to have greater success and avoid problems.

All veneer sheets are production sanded only, NOT FINISH SANDED. They will require additional sanding prior to finishing.
