FAQ

1. WHAT IS EDGE BANDING?

Edge banding is the process of applying a thin strip of material, known as an edge band, to the rough and sharp edges of furniture parts, such as MDF, Particle board, plywood, or wood. This process is used to prevent accidents, create a more refined look, and improve the durability of the furniture.

2. WHAT IS THE THICKNESS OF EDGE BANDING?

The thickness of edge banding can range from 0.018-inch to 5mm thick, depending on the quality and type of the project.

3. HOW WIDE SHOULD EDGE BANDING BE?

The width of edge banding should be a little wider than the thickness of the board. For a standard board between 15mm and 19mm thick, edge banding about 22mm to 2 inches (or about 50mm) wide is typically used.

4. HOW IS EDGE BANDING APPLIED?

Edge banding can be applied manually or using an edge banding machine. Pre-glued edge banding, which has adhesive applied to the back, can be applied using a household iron or an edge banding machine. Non-glued edge banding requires applying glue to the edge of the panel and the banding before attaching.

5. WHAT TYPES OF GLUE ARE USED WITH EDGE BANDING?

The type of glue used with edge banding depends on whether it is pre-glued or non-glued. Pre-glued edge banding typically uses a type of hot-melt adhesive, often based on EVA (Ethylene-vinyl acetate). Non-glued edge banding requires manually applying glue, which can be wood glue (PVA - Polyvinyl acetate) for real wood banding or contact cement for materials like PVC or melamine.

6. WHERE ARE EDGE BANDING MATERIALS PRODUCED AND WHERE ARE THEY TYPICALLY USED?

Most edge banding materials are synthetic and mass-produced worldwide. Wood veneer edge banding is often made from hardwoods obtained from sustainable forests. Edge bands are most typically employed on plywood, particleboard, and MDF, which have rough edges that need to be finished.
