2-Ply Hardwood Veneer
FormWood 2-Ply hardwood veneer has a perpendicular face-to-back construction utilizing a thin acrylic membrane to provide protection against bubbling, glue seepage and telegraphing. The product provides no unsightly edge lines, unlike phenolic-backed veneer. The crossband construction allows FormWood 2-Ply veneer to bend on moderate curves in the horizontal or vertical direction.
