Natural character and a premium nonclinical feel
Real wood veneers provide the warmth and character that only natural timber can deliver, making them a popular choice for commercial interiors, education buildings, healthcare facilities and high-quality residential schemes. If a project requires something more bespoke, we can source, press and finish almost any timber veneer to match design intent or coordinate with other joinery elements.
Please see below for our most popular veneers, more wood types and cuts are available and can be specified.
Veneer Cuts
We normally supply a crown or quarter cut, but our veneers can also be supplied in book matching, slip or random matching.

Book Matching
This traditional method of matching is achieved by taking successive leaves of veneer and reversing each alternate leaf so as to bring corresponding opposite edges together in a mirrored effect. This produces a symmetrical balanced pattern of grain and figure.
Slip Matching
Successive leaves are taken from the same stock or flitch of veneer and jointed without turning alternate leaves over as in book matching. This produces a repeat pattern which varies gradually across the panel. This method is usually most effective when straight grain veneers are used.
Random Matching
Veneers of the same species, but not necessarily from the same log, are deliberately mixed and mismatched to produce an overall grain effect with no particular pattern. Butt or end grain jointing may be introduced in some leaves to add to the planking effect.
