I read this before on edgemates website. I cannot comment beyond this info. sorry its kind of long.
Edgemate kraft paper backed veneer Edging is exclusive
and like no other veneer edging product produced
in the world today. Kraft paper backed finger
jointed real wood veneer coils are superior over other
paper backed products or fleece backed products
because Edgemate uses ‘state of the art’ hot press
equipment and technology combined with a thermo
set acrylic adhesive which cross links to create the
most effective veneer to backer bond in the industry.
The use of coiled veneer products has become an
integral component of real wood edge treatments
within the industry. The manufacturing advantages
and the economies derieved from the use of coiled
veneer products offer substantial benefits, including
simplified inventory control, minimized waste, and
the maximum utilization of valuable natural resources.
Kraft Backed Automatic CVR
The ‘original’ kraft paper backed automatic coiled
veneer edging featuring a 5 mil kraft paper backer
laminated in an exclusive hot press process to carefully
selected premium grade veneers. Kraft paper
backed offers longer lengths between finger joints
compared to standard fleece backed material. The
expertly matched finger joints and fine sanding combined
with the superior backer provide a premium
and beautiful real wood edge treatment. Edgemate
offers specialized processing for softform applications,
featuring precision sanding and flexing, and
options such as hot melt or PVA adhesives and fixed
length increments in coils with magnetic sensing
tape.
