Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for the production of wood-based materials which have at least one thin veneer layer adhesively bonded to a support or with further veneer layers.
  • Wood-based materials with veneer layers made of wood are characterized not only by their aesthetic properties but also by their more homogeneous properties compared to solid wood.
