Essex Wood Veneer Company Discusses the Beauty of Veneered Kitchens

DAGENHAM, U.K. - May 7, 2016 - PRLog -- Read Veneers has been in the natural wood veneer industry for more than two decades. They have recently been called upon to get involved in numerous kitchen design projects and have been discussing why veneered kitchens are proving such a popular pull of late.

Director Paul Read explains that the flexibility of real wood veneers is a major benefit for kitchen designers. "Because it is possible to choose vertical or horizontal grain, designers can achieve the precise look they want or need for a particular space."

Paul goes on to explain how combining different timbers or timber cuts - carefully - can result in a finish that is truly unique, and exceptionally eye-catching. He says, "Some of the exotic timber species like Macassar ebony, Zebrano and Wenge can be used to great effect with particular methods of cutting and finishing are used. And the natural burls and knots of species such as amboyna, walnut and acacia really do a finish proud."

Wood veneers are also beneficial for kitchens because they are more stable than solid wood. Paul says, "Solid wood tends to expand in the heat and then contract when it cools down. Veneers do not have this tendency."

Paul Read says that veneers can be applied to numerous kitchen features. Doors and frames; cabinetry; furniture; worktops; splashbacks and panelling all lend themselves to a wood veneer finish.

As long as a kitchen designer engages the services of a specialist wood veneer company with plenty of experience in producing decorative wood veneers for kitchens then the end result will be nothing short of exceptional.

Read Veneers Ltd is a Brentwood wood veneer company established for 25 years. The company works alongside joiners, cabinetmakers and furniture makers as well as interiors and construction specialists. Some of their work can be seen at London's O2, the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, Cambridge University and Christ Church Kensington. A swift, nationwide service is offered.
