Multi-layered thick veneer edgebanding in continuous rolls has been produced by Heitz since 1979. Veneer in multiple layers is glued together by high capacity presses up to 5mm in thickness. The multi-layered construction with finger jointed middle layers ensures the highest possible flexibility. We produce all thick veneers in continuous rolls with PVAc glues, guaranteeing excellent qualities in regards to flexibility and milling.

Standard surface sanding to 180 grit saves time consuming finishing work during the application process. The back is sanded with 40grit, which ensures highly reliable adhesion.

Multi-layered thick veneer strips are available up to 60mm thick and 4.200mm long. Thick veneer strips are the perfect subsitute for solid wood egebanding. The multi-layered construction enables worry free application while maintaining continuous veneer quality.
 
We use only environmentally friendly UV and hydro finishing systems to produce exact custom color and gloss matches. The fleece backer is also color matched based on the wood species used. We produce on one of the most modern and efficient finishing lines available on the market. Material produced is up to 630mm wide. The selection of finishing systems is made in close cooperation with the customer. Our sales representatives will gladly advise and assist you personally with any technical questions.
Pre-finished edgebanding is becoming more and more important to the manufacturing sector due to increased restrictions regarding the emission of solvents. Emissions can considerably be reduced by using pre-finished edgebanding.

Our wrapping grade and softforming veneers with special backing enforcements and customized sanding allow the processing of complicated profiles and smallest radii. Our products are manufactured in close cooperation with our customers. Based upon their requirements we use various fleece and adhesive applications (e.g. PUR-adhesive). Customized sanding down to 300u thickness creates a worry free product.

Special finishing systems were developed for wrapping and softforming veneers, offering a range from clear ground finishes to completely finished color matches. Color and gloss grades are matched to customer color samples. Our sales representatives will gladly assist you with any technical application inquiries.

Wrapping grade veneers are offered in widths up to 630mm. Since existing machinery can be used in the application process, manufacturers using foil and paper products can also utilize and offer real wood applications in their products. Continuous banding for face veneers, wrapped components or veneers for the printing industry are only a few examples for its various possibilities.
