Did You Know?

Red maple is closely related to silver/big leaf maples with a similar color and grain pattern. It is most commonly found in the eastern part of North America, but it can be bought anywhere. Red maple has a very light pinkish brown tone when its veneer is cut, which means you will want to pair this type with something darker to make the veneer more visible.

The budget-friendly veneered MDF gives you the beauty and workability of solid maple without the higher cost. It's an accessible option to achieve the look of real wood grain. Maintainable This type of maple is by far the most popular choice for woodworkers and has a white tone when its veneer is cut, along with some darker grain lines running across it, which makes this kind of maple very versatile in terms of color pairing. It can be used with almost anything because of its unique look. Though professional installation is recommended for large projects, we offer guides with tips for working with this versatile material yourself. Bring your vision to life affordably with the style and customization potential of our maple veneer MDF. Applications & Uses of Maple Furniture Board As a result of the 18mm MDF core being compressed wooden fibres, our veneered boards weigh significantly less than a solid maple sheet of comparable size. This makes it an attractive option for furnishings or as part of a wider installation as it is easier to handle, transport, handle and install. MalleableRemoving the veneer often damages the core, so we don't advise trying to take veneers off completed pieces. Choose veneered MDF if you want a ready-made look. How should you care for and protect maple veneer? Built-ins - Great for customized bookshelves, storage units, window seats, etc. Stains well for an elegant finish.
