Description

MDF Elm rustic veneer is an MDF board with a natural look, thanks to its top layer of wood veneer. This layer is made of elm wood, in which the wood structure is clearly visible and gives it a warm appearance.

Furthermore, the veneer layer is composed of rustic oak. This rustic look is characterised by knots, cracks, colour variations and a pronounced grain pattern. The veneer often shows the visual signs of the original tree, giving it a warm and characterful aesthetic. The top layers and end edges have yet to be treated.

MDF Elm rustic veneer: what is it?

MDF is a popular board material that can be used for countless projects. MDF veneered is a standard MDF board with a top layer of oak. The top layer is meant to be kept in sight; the bottom layer is made of technical veneer and is meant to reinforce the board. Because the core of these panels is MDF, this panel is also good and easy to assemble. That's really convenient!

MDF Elm rustic veneer, sheet material with a natural surface layer

Unlike melaminated board material, the top layer of veneered panels is a layer of real wood. This gives the material a calm, natural look. Because it is a natural product, there may be colour and texture differences between different panels. No two panels are the same. In addition, it is important that this panel is finished with a lacquer or oil as desired. This prevents discolouration and preserves the top layer. 

Veneered board material has the big advantage over solid board material that it does not warp. The MDF core of this board material gives it the advantages of MDF, but the appearance of solid and natural wood. 

Elm wood

Wood veneer with elm appearance has a characteristic look, characterised by a light to medium colour with an even grain that often shows fine streaks. The veneer exudes a calm and natural aesthetic.

The look of elm veneer is simple and timeless, making it a good match for various interior styles. The colour of the veneer typically ranges from light yellow to light brown, depending on the source and treatment of the wood.

Elm wood veneer is often appreciated for its subtle and elegant appearance, and it can be used for furniture, wall coverings and decorative elements. Its even grain and bright colour allow elm veneer to be effortlessly integrated into various designs, from traditional to modern, adding a sense of tranquillity and sophistication to interiors.

The look of rustic veneer

Wood veneer with a rustic look has a natural and raw charm characterised by features such as knots, cracks, colour variations and a pronounced grain pattern. The veneer often shows the visual signs of the original tree, giving it a warm and characterful aesthetic.

The rustic properties of this veneer are sought after because of the organic look they add to surfaces. The presence of knots, small openings where branches once grew, and cracks give a sense of authenticity and history. Colour variations and a distinctive grain pattern can add to the natural and aged look.

Wood veneer with a rustic look often goes well with traditional, country and craft design styles. It brings a warm and cosy atmosphere to interiors and can be used for furniture, wall coverings and other decorative applications where the emphasis is on embracing the natural beauty of the wood.

Processing of MDF Elm rustic veneer boards

The board consists of wood fibres compressed under high pressure. This makes the material easy to work with. When milling or sawing, this board material does not splinter. The fibres are held together by resin. This makes it important to degrease the board well before lacquering the material. Veneered MDF is only suitable for indoor applications and in dry conditions.

Specific applications of veneered oak

MDF is the material of choice for furniture and interior applications. Veneer MDF, also known as veneer MDF, is a versatile board suitable for various interior applications. A door, an enclosure for pipework, a bookshelf, a TV cabinet and a partition are some examples of the application possibilities of veneered MDF. Its homogeneous structure makes MDF less susceptible to shrinking and expanding at varying temperatures compared to other board materials. MDF veneer is not suitable for use in damp rooms or outdoors.
