Wood Veneer Flexibility from Oakwood

People often ask how we ship our wood veneer, whether on pallets or otherwise. Actually all of our veneer ships in boxes with the veneer rolled up inside. For example the box might be 8"X8"X50" for a standard 4'X8' sheet or wider or taller for more sheets or for our 5' wide veneer. They are rolled against the grain, and the boxes are shipped via UPS or FedEx.

The veneer rolls easily because it is flexible wood veneer. For this reason, builders often use our veneer on large, round indoor building pillars, or curved wall corners. This makes for a very elegant look which can often be achieved for much less money than it appears.

Flexible veneer can also go on the rounded edges of desks or bookshelves, on dashboards, dining room tables, and the list goes on and on. This allows designers and builders to be creative. So the next time your project requires a little extra flair or a rounded wood look, be sure to consider flexible wood veneer.
