Solid wood multi-layer board is also called multi-layer solid wood. Multi-layer solid wood is now one of the preferred boards for many carpenters or solid wood custom furniture companies.

So what should we know about multi-layer solid wood?



Multi-layer solid wood wardrobe materials

To understand multi-layer solid wood wardrobes, we first need to understand the basics of multi-layer solid wood. Solid wood includes many species, including nanmu, catalpa, elm, poplar, sedge, pine, beech, walnut, camphor, cypress, birch, maple, cherry, walnut, oak, ash, rubberwood, oak, and rosewood. In short, multi-layer solid wood is made by hot-pressing multiple layers of veneer or thin sheets together. As the name suggests, a wardrobe made with multiple layers of solid wood is called a multi-layer solid wood wardrobe.


Environmental protection of multi-layer solid wood wardrobe

During the pressing process, solid wood multi-layer boards are made by gluing single boards together vertically and horizontally, and then pressing them under high temperature and high pressure. This results in a very stable structure and prevents deformation. This is because the use of glue is reduced during the production process, and polymer glue is used. The high temperature and high pressure, along with the PVC edge banding using an imported edge banding machine, reduces formaldehyde content, allowing the board's formaldehyde emissions to reach environmental standards of E0 or higher, making it environmentally friendly.

Disadvantages of multi-layer solid wood wardrobe


There are two main drawbacks to using multi-layer solid wood for wardrobes. First, multi-layer solid wood panels are difficult to process and require very high craftsmanship, such as sanding and cold pressing, which also requires high technical capabilities from the wardrobe manufacturer. Second, if unscrupulous manufacturers use low-quality glue during the manufacture of multi-layer solid wood panels, it may cause the panels to separate and deform, resulting in a shorter service life. Knowing these drawbacks, it's important to carefully inspect the materials before choosing multi-layer solid wood for your wardrobe.
