Details

Our cut-to-size veneered MDF offers customisable, high-quality sheets perfect for furniture, cabinetry, floating shelving, wall panelling and more.It consists of high-quality real wood veneer bonded to an 18mm MDF core. The 0.5mm veneer is applied to both faces of the wood sheet. By right angle slicing the real wood, we produce a crown cut veneer which gives a recognisable great iconic grain for the veneer which can be customised in the direction of your laminated MDF board.

Due to its smooth and stable faces, MDF can easily be drilled and cut to specific sizes. With our CNC machine, we are fully equipped to customise your veneered MDF with precision cutouts, and rounded edges or prepare the sheets for fixings by drilling holes into them. This makes veneered MDF an attractive option for furniture or installations, as it's easy to handle, transport, and install.

The veneers provide a clean, decorative look that can be stained like solid wood, while the MDF core keeps the sheet flat and sturdy. The edges of the sheet can also be customised with an additional 0.5mm veneer to provide that professional outward-facing edge. It is also perfect for being stained and painted. We offer both matt and gloss lacquering on all of our veneered MDF types.

MDF is manufactured from wood fibres, mixed with resin and waxes which are then hot pressed to the required thickness. These wood fibres are sourced from environmentally friendly forest thinnings, recycled wood or pallets, and sawdust. All our suppliers provide FSC and PEFC certifications.

The natural variations in these handcrafted products make each one unique. The range of shades, colours, textures, and organic details like knots reflect the beautiful imperfections of natural wood. While no two pieces are identical, the character of the natural wood adds warmth and charm to any space.

Veneered MDF is easy to work with and provides a beautiful real wood look backed by a stable MDF core. This makes it much lighter and more affordable than real wood. To order yours, all you need to do is let us know your measurements we'll cut your order to size with any customisations that you need.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is veneered MDF?

Veneered MDF is created by bonding a thin veneer of solid wood to standard grade MDF. The result is a similar quality alternative to veneered Plywood, enhanced by the uniform colour and straight grain of the wood with the strength of the MDF core.

Is veneer furniture good quality?

A veneered product is made out of thin, decorative slices of high-quality oak, affixed to a lower-density core that will resist warping and moisture and therefore offer a good value alternative to solid wood. This strength and inexpensive option are produced to a high quality, making veneer MDF a great option for cut-to-size furniture boards.

Can you paint veneered MDF?

If the veneer surface is in good condition, you can simply sand it a little, prime and paint. You can treat this like any other piece of furniture. However, if the veneer is chipped and damaged carry out the process as mentioned in our guide before sanding.

Is solid wood better than veneer?

Depending on the craftsmanship of the wood (the types and quality of finish, cut, hardware and other factors that went into the construction), solid wood furniture can last for generations. However veneered wood is incredibly durable and an inexpensive alternative.

Is veneer real wood?

Yes! All of the veneers that we supply are made from real solid wood. It is worth checking that your veneer is real wood, as often some manufacturers may offer vinyl or laminate alternatives.

What is veneer used for?

In woodworking, a veneer is a cut of wood that is 0.8mm thick, that is applied to both faces of a strong MDF core. This is to seal and stabilize the core, which is crucial for building furniture for instance. 

Can you take the veneer off of furniture?

While it is possible to remove a veneer, it can be extremely difficult to do, as removing the veneer would likely damage the MDF core underneath. For this reason, we highly recommend checking that you require veneered MDF prior to ordering.

Can you refinish the veneer?

It is definitely possible to refinish a veneer. To do so you treat it almost the same as a real piece of solid wood, though taking extra measures to avoid damaging the veneer or its MDF core.

How do you protect wood veneer?

While the wood veneer can be varnished and stained to protect it, we also recommend considering how the veneer will be used. If used on a table for instance, that you purchase an acrylic table top protector for extra protection.
