Materials

Choosing the right material for your project is vital.  Whether you want the classic timeless beauty of wood or a contemporary finish with an unusual laminate or the benefits that a solid surface can offer.

 

Softwood or hardwood, laminates, veneers, real wood veneers, solid surface, stainless steel, aluminium, acrylics, glass, the choice is endless.

 

Solid wood, softwood or hardwood furniture is considered the best quality on the market.  If you are purchasing furniture that will be in your home for a long time, solid wood is a smart investment. 

 

All of our raw materials are purchased from suppliers that ensure their products are sourced from legal and sustainable sources.

 

 

Medium Density Fibreboard

Man-Made Woods

MDF (medium density fibreboard) is made out of multiple wood fibres and glued together under pressure and heat.  MDF is generally affordable and just as durable as solid wood.  Items made with MDF can imitate the look of real wood while meeting budget requirements.

 

Woods & Synthetic Woods

Wood Veneer
Wood veneers are constructed of thin slices of real wood which are adhered to a surface to give it the glowing appearance of wood. Veneers can be laid over less costly and lighter materials to save beautiful grain pattern.  Any smooth and flat material can have veneer laid over it, making this an extremely versatile and popular method of constructing furniture.

The slices used for veneering are generally trimmed from the most attractive parts of the wood source. A saw was originally used for this procedure, but is now commonly replaced by a stationary knife. This reduces the dust that is caused by sawing and also allows more slices to be cut from each individual log. Look for wood veneers on a wide range of furniture, including table tops, fireplace mantels, and headboards.

 

Laminates
Laminates consist of a layer of wood or other product, such as paper, which is applied over a wood frame and sealed with a protective layer of thermosetting resin. They are used in a wide variety of products (especially office furniture), as they can be extremely durable and stand up to heavy use.

 

In addition you are virtually guaranteed that the finish on your products will match what you already have. Unlike real wood, laminates should not fade or have variations from piece to piece. They are also very easy to clean with just a soft cloth. Look for laminates on children’s furniture, office desks, and coffee tables.

 

Solid Surface Material

A solid surface material a synthetic material and is engineered for use in residential and commercial applications and is now the horizontal and vertical surface material of choice for installers, fabricators, architects, designers and specifiers.
