All our ranges are available in Veneer & Melamine unless otherwise specified. What is Veneer? Veneered Boards Veneers Veneered boards use either a BisonBord or SupaWood substrate, surfaced with a genuine timber veneer. They are ideal for flat surface wood finishes that can be combined with matching solid timber moulded to shape.They offer an affordable solution to using solid timber. They are primarily used in upmarket applications such as executive offices and boardroom furniture as well as panelling or wall cladding. Veneered boards are supplied with a raw and unfinished surface, requiring a surface treatment by fabricator. Over the years, as demand has increased, using solid timber, in applications such as kitchens and office furniture, has become a costly affair.To still provide the look and feel of solid timber, but ease the expense of the job, veneered boards, which offer solid timber aesthetics at a fraction of the cost, are used. Available in the most popular timber species, veneered boards use a veneer layon, bonded to either a BisonBoard or SupaWood substrate and balanced with an appropriate backer. Species dependant, the veneer layons are either sliced or rotary cut and available in either Single or Double Face. Finishing Depending on the application, there are many finishes which can be applied. All finishes will slightly alter the original colour of the veneered board and are used to enhance the colour and texture of the wood grain. These finishes include lacquers - lacquers are generally applied by spraying and add depth and richness to the original color. Lacquers form a protective layer which lends hardiness and durability to the veneer. What is Melamine? Office National has partnered with not only the best manufacturers but has also gone to the best raw material suppliers in SA. PG Bison is a trusted brand that has been around for many years. Because we strive to bring you, our valued customer, the best possible quality and value for money, we have to ensure that only the best raw materials are used in the manufacturing of our products. That’s why we can confidently say that most of our ranges carry a 5 year manufacturer’s guarantee. BisonBord BisonBord, the premium quality, interior grade particleboard, is manufactured by flaking wood chips into coarse and fine wood particles which are then dried before being coated in synthetic resin and formed into panels under heat and pressure. BisonBord offers excellent structural strength with superior screw- holding abilities and machinability, making it the core material of choice. Used either in its raw state or as a substrate (base) for decorative surfaces, it is used extensively in the office furniture industry, amongst others. Melawood is the leading brand in decorative melamine faced board. Using BisonBord as a substrate, a single sheet of Melamine-impregnated decor paper is bonded to both the board’s surfaces under heat and pressure.This provides a durable, scratch and moisture resistant surface. BisonBord conforms to SABS EN 312:3 - 1996 (Boards for interior fitments [including furniture] for use in dry conditions. What is MDF? Medium-density fibreboard (MDF) is an engineered wood product made by breaking down hardwood or softwood residuals into wood fibres, combining it with wax and resin binder and forming it into panels. MDF is usually spray painted with Plascon colours to bring a pop of colour into the office space. Wood Colour Swatches 3
