About TRUEGRAIN®

TrueGrain and other dyed reconstituted veneers are made from real wood veneer, dyed all the way through, then laminated and re-sliced to make veneer in unique colours and patterns. It is the most consistent of all wood veneers (though it may occasionally have some very slight variation in colour and pattern between dye-batches). It is suitable where a high degree of uniformity is required, such as large areas of wall panelling.
