American Walnut Veneered Particle Board

Particle board is a material made of wood chips and binding resins. The boards are produced by hot pressing. The finished blanks are faced with American walnut veneer – a valuable timber with decorative qualities.

Veneered particle boards are used to make:

1. Furniture. Wardrobes, chests of drawers, bedside cabinets, shelving units with closed and open shelves, coffee and occasional tables made of the composite material withstand the everyday loads of a home. Particle board faced with American walnut is used for exclusive suites for bedrooms, living rooms and studies.
2. Arches and partitions. The boards are used to make arches, screens and partitions that help divide a space sensibly. A properly zoned room is more practical and more functional.
3. Wall and ceiling panels. Facing walls and ceilings in natural wood is a trend that will stay with us for decades. Panels made from veneered particle board are used in residential and public interiors. This kind of facing looks presentable, is simple to fit and lasts a long time.

Performance of particle board

Particle boards, made of wood chips and binding resins, are produced by hot pressing. The raw material for particle board is carefully selected: chips of a set width, length and thickness are used. Mixing the wood material with resins gives a plastic mass, which is then fed into moulds. Once the blanks have been hot pressed and cured under high temperature, the board is faced with veneer.

Affordability and excellent working qualities are among the main advantages of particle board. The sheets resist changes in humidity and temperature. Buying particle board in Ukraine is also straightforward. Our catalogue holds a broad range of naturally veneered boards, notable for:

• environmental safety. We supply boards with formaldehyde emission class E1. That rating means the substance stays within the recommended limits and such boards may be used in residential and public interiors. Facing the surface with natural wood raises the environmental safety of the finished item, which is why the composite material is also used for children’s room furnishings;
• build quality. The facing is carried out in strict accordance with the process. Veneer with the right figure is selected for the lay-up, and it is bonded on with dedicated machinery;
• appearance. Particle board veneered in American walnut needs no further painting or sanding. The expressive figure of the wood stands on its own and can serve as the decorative accent of furniture and other interior items.

American walnut timber

Veneer cut from this valuable species is suitably hard-wearing. Properly finished, the dense timber resists moisture, rot, pests and direct sunlight. American walnut holds its shape and is not troubled by mechanical loads.

An important quality of the timber is its attractive appearance. The rich colour and the clear figure with contrasting growth lines make black walnut veneered particle board an excellent material for household items in a wide range of styles.

The palette of American walnut runs to dozens of shades. The wood usually darkens over time. The heartwood may be anything from light brown to deep chocolate. The sapwood (the young outer layers) carries lighter shades – honey, sand, milky, cream. Reddish streaks are common in the timber.
