WOOD PRODUCTS

Wood product manufacturing subsector manufacture

wood products, such as lumber, plywood, veneers, wood
containers, wood trusses, mobile homes and pre fabricated
wood buildings.
The production processes of the wood product include
sawing, planning, shaping, laminating and assembling from
logs that are cut into bolts, or lumber that then may be
further cut, or shaped by lathes or shaping tools.

PLYWOOD

Plywood is a sheet material manufactured from thin layers or plies

of wood veneer that glued together with adjacent layers having their
wood grain rotated up to 90 degrees to one another.
All plywood's bind resin and wood fibre sheets to form composite
material which reduces the tendency of splitting when nailed at the
edges, reduces expansion and shrinkage, provides stability and
strength.

BLOCKBOARD
Block board is made up of a core softwood strips.
The strips are placed edge to edge and sandwiched
between veneers of hardwood and the glued under high
pressure.
These strips may be 25 mm wide.
It is basically sold in a standard size of 2440 by 1220mm
and are normally 30mm thick.

USES
It is used for making shelves, doors , panelling and
partitions.
While making doors or tables it is important to ensure
that the core runs lengthways in order to achieve
maximum strength.
It is not suitable for outdoor use because the glue used
are interior glues which is not resistant to increased heat
and dampness.

PARTICLE BOARD
It is also known as chip board which is manufactured from
wood chips, sawmill shavings or even sawdust and a
synthetic resin, which is pressed and extruded.
It is cheaper, lighter, denser and more uniform than wood
and plywood and is substituted when cost is more
important than strength and appearance.
It is rarely used n outdoor places where there are high
levels of moisture, with the exception of some bathroom
and kitchens, where it is commonly used in underlayment.

 Using particle board over veneer core plywood provides

more stability.
It is more convenient to use and cheaper to buy.
The basic standard size is 4 by 8ft , 3 by 4ft and 5 by 8ft
which is used for flooring in attic spaces.
Its major disadvantage is that It is prone to expansion
and discoloration due to moisture, particularly when not
covered with paint or another sealer .

WOOD VENEER
Veneer refers to thin slices of wood, usually thinner than
3mm, that typically are glued onto core panels such as
wood, particle board or medium density fibre board to
produce flat panels such as doors, panels for cabinets,
floors and parts of furniture.
It is obtained by peeling the trunk of a tree or by slicing
large rectangular blocks of wood.
The appearance of it depends on the slicing through the
growth rings or on the angle which its cut.

TYPES OF VENEER
Raw veneer
Paper backed
Phenolic backed
Laid up
Reconstituted veneer
Wood on wood

ADVANTAGES
Compared to wood, primary advantage is it provides
stability.
While wood can be prone to splitting or warping, veneer
has less chances of splitting and cracking as its made of
thin layers of wood glued together , the glue provides
additional strength , making the end product stronger
than natural wood.
Some projects can only be constructed using veneer and
not with wood due to the fluctuation of temperature and
humidity.
Furniture made with wood veneer uses less wood than in
comparison with solid wood.

FINISHING MATERIAL
Wood finishing refers to the process of refining or protecting
a wooden surface, especially in the production of furniture
where typically it represents between 5 and 30% of
manufacturing costs.
Finishing is the final step of the manufacturing process that
gives wood surfaces desirable characteristics, including
enhanced appearance and increased resistance to moisture
and other environmental agents.
Finishing can also make wood easier to
clean and influence other wood properties, for example
tonal qualities of musical instruments and hardness of
flooring.
In addition, finishing provides a way of giving lowvalue woods the appearance of ones that are expensive
and difficult to obtain.

VENEER
In woodworking, veneer refers to thin slices of wood,
usually thinner than 3 mm (1/8 inch),that typically are
glued onto core panels (typically, wood, particle board
or medium-density fiberboard) to produce flat panels
such as doors, tops and panels for cabinets, parquet
floors and parts of furniture.
They are also used in marquetry. Plywood consists of
three or more layers of veneer, each glued with its
grain at right angles to adjacent layers for strength.
Veneer beading is a thin layer of decorative edging
placed around objects, such as jewelry boxes. Veneer
is also used to replace decorative papers in Wood
Veneer HPL. Veneer is also a type of manufactured
board.

LAMINATE

A laminate is a material constructed by uniting two or

more layers of material together. The process of creating
a laminate is lamination, which usually refers to
sandwiching something between layers of plastic and
sealing them with heat and/or pressure.

MATERIAL
There are different lamination processes, depending on
the type of materials to be laminated.
The materials used in laminates can be the same or
different, depending on the processes and the object to
be laminated. An example of the type of laminate using
different materials would be the application of a layer of
plastic filmthe "laminate"on either side of a sheet of
glassthe laminated subject.

FLOORING

Wood flooring: Is any product manufactured from

timber that is designed for use as flooring, either
structural or aesthetic. Wood is a common choice as a
flooring material and can come in various styles, colors,
cuts, and species. Bamboo flooring is often considered a
form of wood flooring, although it is made from a grass
(bamboo) rather than a timber

WOODEN STAIRCASE
Special types of stairs
include escalators and
ladders. Some alternatives to
stairs are elevators (lifts in
British English), stair lifts and
inclined moving walkways as
well as stationary inclined
sidewalks.

EXTERIOR WALL CLADDING

The natural appeal,
versatility and strength of
timber makes it the
superior choice for
external cladding.
Through specification,
planning, design and
finishing processes,
timber cladding not only
creates a building of
superior strength,
acoustic and thermal
performance but also
creates a place of beauty,
style and natural appeal.
