Columbia Forest Products is the largest manufacturer of rotary hardwood veneer in North America. Specializing in Northern Appalachian hardwoods, veneers from 1/28″ to 1/42″ in thickness are produced for both domestic and export markets.

ANSI/HPVA defines veneer as “a thin sheet of wood, rotary cut, sliced, or sawed from a log, bolt or flitch.”
Birch, red oak, maple, ash, poplar, cherry and other species of fancy veneer are supplied throughout the decorative plywood, furniture, cabinetry, door and profile-wrap industries.

Continuous pieces of veneer peeled from a log using a rotary process.

Every other strip of veneer is turned over. This produces a grain pattern that is matched at the veneer joint.

Each strip is laid out side by side (without turning over). This produces a repetitive pattern.

Composed of several pieces of veneer varying in width that are glued together to form a whole sheet. The way they are laid out determines the final look of the veneer.
