Douglas Fir Quarter Cut Veneers

Quarter cut veneer achieves a plain and straight grain that more closely resembles solid timber grain pattern, when compared to plywood. If your project involves both timber lengths and sheet materials, using a quarter cut veneered panel ensures a more consistent appearance.


Our veneers are bonded to birch plywood, pine plywood or an MDF core.
