Formwood's DuraBackâ„¢ is a unique product designed and engineered as an alternative to traditional laminate backed veneer. This hardwood veneer product is very popular in some markets where solvent-based adhesive restrictions require woodworkers to use water-based glues.
While providing extreme durability, the downside of using laminate backed veneer is that this brittle product has a tendency to break or split easily. The DuraBack™ sheet’s beige backer blends nicely in most applications to maintain the natural beauty of the wood veneer.
Formwood created DuraBackâ„¢ veneer to be an extremely flexible product unlike standard laminate backers.
