What a teak face veneer is

A teak face veneer is a thin slice of teak, cut from the log on a slicing machine and glued onto a board. It covers the surfaces people see: furniture, cabinets, doors and walls.

Why a veneer, not solid teak

Cost

It gives the look of solid teak for far less.

Stability

A thin leaf on a stable board is less likely to warp or crack than a solid plank.

Consistency

Leaves from one log carry the same colour and grain, so a whole room can match.

The looks it can take

A straight grain suits clean, modern and minimal rooms. Patterns such as herringbone or chevron add texture and suit more traditional ones. Veneer can be stained to match flooring or cabinets, and finished in anything from a natural oil to a high-gloss lacquer.

Our crown veneer is 0.25 mm thick and our quarter veneer 0.20 mm, in lengths of 8, 7 or 6 ft.
