Edge Banding | Radhesyam Laminates

If there is something that can be a perfect material for carpentry finishing solutions, edge banding is the one. Edge banding is used to close the exposed side and raw edges of the plywood, particleboard, medium-density fibreboard (MFD) to give the appearance of a solid or more valuable material. Edge banding not only covers plywood sides but also gives a cabinet's finished look and protects the inner wood from warping. You might have observed when furniture is being made, that wooden boards, when cut have raw edges. If these raw edges are left uncovered may cause some serious problems to the furniture. These exposed raw edges allow moisture to flow into and in turn, makes the wood warp and become lumpy. The narrow strip around the edge of furniture is known as edge bands. Edge banding is commercially done using hot-melt adhesive automated industry-grade heat applicators.

For modular furniture most commonly used edge bandings are PVC edge banding and wood veneer which is easy to fix and durable.
