Advantages of Sawn Pine Veneer

Sawn veneer, or lamella, is a type of lumber made by sawing a solid wood block with specialized equipment. Lamella thickness is typically 2 to 10 mm / 0.078-0.39″. Sawn veneer retains the wood’s natural grain, color, and texture.

The material’s advantages include:

1. Strength and Durability. Due to its ample thickness, lamella can withstand mechanical stress and is suitable for various types of finishes.
2. Natural Aesthetics. Sawn veneer preserves the natural beauty of solid wood.
3. Eco-Friendliness. Thin wood sheets are environmentally safe. Lumber is an efficient way to use industrial wood.
4. Wide Application. Sawn veneer is used to create various carpentry products, from furniture fronts and flooring to wall panels and doors.
5. Stability. The material is made from kiln-dried solid wood. Lamellas maintain a stable shape and are suitable for use in residential and commercial spaces.
6. Ease of Processing. Sawn veneer is easy to process. Sheets can be cut, glued, polished, sanded, painted, stained, and varnished.

Grade Rustic Sawn Pine Veneer

Rustic grade sawn veneer has the most natural characteristics. The cost of this material is significantly lower than grades A and B.

Characteristics of rustic grade sawn veneer:

• Various types of knots are allowed, including sound knots, loose knots, black knots, and knots with cracks.
• Minor cracks and resin pockets may be present on the surface.
• There are noticeable color variations.
• Despite these visual imperfections, the material remains strong.

This decorative material, with its pronounced wood characteristics, is chosen for projects in rustic, loft, chalet, eco, Scandinavian, and country styles.

Sawn Pine Lamella Manufacturing Process

Sawn veneer production is a technological process that preserves the wood’s texture. The manufacturing of this lumber consists of the following stages:

1. Board Selection. Only the highest or first-grade boards are chosen for lamella production.
2. Wood Drying. The selected boards are dried in special kilns. Kiln drying allows for the production of solid wood with a stable moisture content of 8-10%. Following the proper drying technology relieves internal wood stress and prevents lumber deformation.
3. Stock Calibration. The next step is to calibrate the boards. The material is adjusted to fit the saw cassette.
4. Sawing. After jointing, the boards are loaded into a Wintersteiger machine and cut into sheets of the desired thickness. Modern equipment ensures maximum cutting precision, minimizing raw material waste.
5. Sorting. The finished lumber is checked for compliance with size and quality standards. After sorting by grade, the lamellas are stacked into bundles.

Sawn veneer is a premium facing material whose production is focused on quality and preserving the wood’s properties.

Uses of Sawn Pine Lamella

Sawn veneer is a durable, long-lasting, and easy-to-work-with lumber product. Veneer sheets are used to create products such as:

• Countertops. Lamella is used to finish countertops for desks and dining tables, bar counters, kitchen work surfaces, and commercial counters.
• Furniture Fronts. Lamella veneer gives furniture a solid, substantial look. It’s the ideal choice for cabinets, dressers, and chests of drawers. The material is resistant to temperature and humidity fluctuations and is easy to stain and varnish.
• Interior Stair Treads. Due to its high strength and durability, sawn veneer is a popular material for stair cladding. The 2-10 mm thickness is sufficient to withstand the operational load in townhouses, country homes, hotels, and restaurants.
• Doors and Interior Partitions. Interior doors finished with sawn veneer are chosen for both residential and commercial spaces. Lamellas can also be used to decorate partitions, dividers, and screens. These non-load-bearing structures help to zone a space and often play an important role in the interior design of studio apartments, offices, and exhibition halls.
• Wall Panels. Wood lamellas are used to create unique wall panels. Veneer sheets can be combined in various ways to achieve a uniform surface or a highly decorative panel with different types of textures.
• Household and Decorative Items. Artisans use sawn veneer to make a variety of small household items: boxes, organizers, lamps, mirror frames, figurines, napkin holders, eyeglass stands, key holders, clocks, and more.

Wood lamella is the foundation for a wide range of carpentry products. High-quality veneer allows for the realization of the most complex design concepts. Sawn veneer is used wherever not only the beauty of the wood is needed, but also durability and resistance to mechanical stress.

Pine Wood: Features

Pine (Pinus) is one of the most common and important coniferous species in the world. This accessible and easy-to-process industrial wood is used in construction, furniture manufacturing, and interior finishes, among other things. Pine is widespread throughout Europe and Asia. The species adapts to various climatic conditions and soils.

Technical Characteristics

• The average density of dry pine is approximately 500-520 kg/m³, making it a lightweight species.
• Janka hardness: 540 lbf; Brinell hardness: 2.5.
• Pine has moderate toughness and elasticity.

Texture, Grain, Color

• Pine’s grain is typically straight, and its texture is pronounced. The clear growth rings form a characteristic pattern.
• The sapwood is wide with a light yellow or whitish hue. The heartwood color ranges from yellowish-brown to reddish-brown. The wood darkens when exposed to light and air.
• A characteristic feature of solid pine wood is the presence of resin ducts, which may appear as small dark spots or lines on the surface. The resin gives the wood a pleasant pine scent and increases its resistance to moisture and pests.

Processing Features

• Pine wood is dried using a special process to prevent resin from leaking onto the surface.
• The soft wood is easy to work with using both hand and power tools. The material is easy to saw, plane, drill, and cut.
• Pine accepts various finishes well, including varnishes, stains, paints, oils, and waxes. Due to the uneven density of early and latewood, stains may not be absorbed uniformly. A primer or filler is recommended.
