Paper-Backed Wood Veneers by Treefrog at Chemetal

Treefrog Unfinished Paper-Backed real wood veneers feature engineered, or composite, wood technology. This unique manufacturing process uses sustainably harvested, more commonly occurring, and faster growing tree species to create the look, feel and warmth of more exotic, and potentially threatened, wood species.

This process also creates a wood veneer that is more consistent in color and structure than natural wood veneers. It also allows for a virtually unlimited selection of reliable veneer sheets, making it ideal in design spaces of any size, and for use in product production runs.

Treefrog Veneer is manufactured utilizing either plantation-grown Poplar from Italy or Ayous (Obeche) from Cameroon (West Africa). The logs are cut into individual veneer sheets, dyed, shuffled like a deck of cards, glued and formed using a computer controlled hydraulic press into a veneer that is then sliced again in a different direction. The resulting veneer sheets are then bonded to a 10 mil paper backer sheet. Treefrog Unfinished Veneers are available in sheet size 96" x 48"(2440mm x 1220mm).
