Digital catalogueProduction process
5 stages, 19 steps
From the log yard to dispatch, every stage runs in our own facility, under our own control.
Logs
01 – 03- 01
Log stock
Domestic beech and pine, along with imported birch and okoume logs, are sorted and stacked by species and diameter.
- 02
Log conditioning
Logs are conditioned with hot water or steam so the fibres soften and flex, and the veneer peels without cracking.
- 03
Debarking and cross-cutting
Debarked logs are cut into blocks to suit the peeling lathe.
Veneer
04 – 08- 04
Rotary peeling
The block turns on its axis; a continuous veneer ribbon comes off between the knife and the pressure bar.
- 05
Clipping
The veneer ribbon is clipped into sheets of the required size.
- 06
Drying
Veneer sheets are dried to the target moisture content.
- 07
Veneer grading
Dry veneers are sorted by quality into face, back and core veneers.
- 08
Jointing and patching
Narrow pieces are jointed into full-size sheets; defects are repaired with butterfly patches.
Panel
09 – 14- 09
Gluing and lay-up
Veneers are coated with WBP phenolic or MR glue and laid up with the grain crossing at right angles.
- 10
Cold pre-press
The laid-up pack is pre-pressed cold so the veneers settle in place.
- 11
Hot pressing
Packs are pressed with heat and pressure in a multi-daylight hot press; the glue cures and the panel forms.
- 12
Trimming to size
Panels are trimmed to sizes such as 2500 × 1250 or 3000 × 1500 mm.
- 13
Sanding
Unfaced panels are sanded with 60, 120 or 220 grit on request.
- 14
Panel grading
Panels are graded B, BB, CP or C; the face can be puttied on request.
Film and finishing
15 – 17- 15
Film facing
Formwork panels are faced with 125 g/m² phenolic film in a hot press.
- 16
Edge sealing
Edges are sealed with waterproof acrylic paint to keep moisture out.
- 17
Final inspection
Thickness, size and surface are checked one last time; tolerance ± 0.5 mm.
Dispatch
18 – 19- 18
Packing
Panels are palletised, strapped and labelled with product details.
- 19
Storage and dispatch
