Why would I use wood veneers instead of solid wood?
Wood veneers deliver a level of diversity and design possibility that is hard to replicate with solid wood. You can mix and match shades, wood grain, and other elements to create something uniquely beautiful, and because wood veneers are highly stable and less prone to splitting, warping, and seasonal shifts, they are a great material for a wide range of projects and applications. Wood veneers are also more environmentally friendly than solid timber because significantly more veneer can be harvested from a single log.
