Double Sided Veneered Chipboard 18mm
The Double Sided Veneered Chipboard 18mm provides a high-density structural panel for internal joinery where you need a natural wood appearance on both visible faces. This 18mm thick board uses a core of compressed wood particles bonded with urea-formaldehyde resins, providing a stable alternative to solid timber. In addition, the double-sided veneer helps balance tension across the panel and minimize warping during temperature fluctuations.
Built for the Job
Contractors and cabinet makers use this material for carcass construction and furniture components that require structural rigidity and a finished appearance. In particular, the 18mm thickness provides sufficient material for housing screws and cam-and-pin fasteners while reducing the splitting risk associated with thinner boards. Furthermore, it suits interior environments where moisture levels remain controlled.
- First, use it to fabricate kitchen cabinet carcasses and wardrobe internals.
- In addition, use it to construct office workstations and commercial shelving units.
- Finally, use it to manufacture internal doors and decorative wall panelling.
Product Highlights
Core Stability
The industrial-grade particle core resists the natural movement, twisting, and cupping found in solid wood planks.
Surface Quality
- Moreover, the pre-sanded veneer faces are ready for staining, lacquering, or oiling.
- Additionally, the consistent grain pattern runs across the 2440mm length, helping achieve professional alignment.

On-Site & Workshop Notes
- First, use a fine-tooth triple-chip grind (TCG) saw blade to prevent breakout on the bottom veneer face during cutting.
- Next, store the sheets flat on at least three evenly spaced bearers to prevent permanent sagging or bowing.
- Furthermore, seal all exposed edges with matching veneer tape or PVC edging to protect the core from atmospheric moisture ingress.
- Finally, always pre-drill pilot holes when using carcass screws to improve pull-out resistance in the particle core
