Wood Veneer Edge Banding — Species Guide
Match your edge banding to your hardwood plywood face for seamless, furniture-grade results. Species listed below are available through our South Florida distribution network — stocked items ship same day.
Hard Maple
Fine, Uniform Grain — Creamy WhiteThe #1 choice for cabinet shops. Maple’s tight, consistent grain and near-white color make it the perfect match for maple-faced hardwood plywood. Accepts stain evenly; ideal for both natural and painted finishes. High Janka hardness (1,450) means the banded edge resists denting.
- Thin: 0.6 mm
- Thick: 1 mm – 3 mm
- Widths: 7/8" – 3"
- Pre-glued Available
- Prefinished Available
American Cherry
Fine, Straight Grain — Warm Reddish-BrownCherry starts as a light pinkish-brown and deepens to a rich, warm reddish-brown with light exposure — matching the natural patina of cherry-faced panels over time. Essential for fine cabinetry and furniture-grade work. Flat-cut grain provides a smooth, elegant surface.
- Thin: 0.6 mm
- Thick: 1 mm
- Widths: 15/16" – 2"
- Flat-Cut
- Pre-glued Available
Black Walnut
Straight to Wavy Grain — Deep Chocolate BrownThe premium choice for luxury furniture and high-end cabinetry. Walnut’s deep brown color with occasional purplish overtones creates a sophisticated contrast with lighter countertops and hardware. Flat-cut veneer edge banding matches walnut-faced plywood for a seamless, book-matched look.
- Thin: 0.6 mm
- Thick: 1 mm – 2 mm
- Widths: 15/16" – 2"
- Flat-Cut
- Pre-glued Available
White Oak
Tight, Linear Grain — Golden to Gray ToneThe fastest-growing species in contemporary cabinet design. White oak’s closed-grain structure (tyloses) makes it more moisture-resistant than red oak — ideal for kitchen and bath cabinetry. Pairs with white oak plywood for a clean, modern Scandinavian aesthetic. Rift-cut versions available for linear grain consistency.
- Thin: 0.6 mm
- Widths: 15/16" – 2"
- Flat-Cut & Rift-Cut
- Pre-glued Available
Red Oak
Prominent Open Grain — Warm Pinkish-BrownThe classic American cabinet wood. Red oak’s bold, wavy grain adds visual character to traditional and transitional cabinetry. Available in both 0.6 mm thin veneer and thick 1–3 mm varieties. Maple and Red Oak are available in both coiled rolls and 8 ft strips from major suppliers.
- Thin: 0.6 mm
- Thick: 1 mm – 3 mm
- Widths: 7/8" – 3"
- 8 ft Strips Available
- Pre-glued Available
Baltic Birch / Natural Birch
Subtle, Fine Grain — Creamy Light BlondeThe essential edge banding for Baltic birch plywood cabinet boxes. Birch’s clean, understated grain and light color matches Baltic birch face veneers almost perfectly. Used by production cabinet shops as the default edge for exposed plywood edges. Also ideal for Scandinavian and minimalist furniture.
- Thin: 0.6 mm
- Widths: 15/16" – 1-1/4"
- Pre-glued Available
- Prefinished Available
White Ash
Straight, Open Grain — Pale Yellow to Light BrownA refined alternative to red oak — similar open-grain character but more consistent and less wild. Ash’s light, creamy color and clean grain work beautifully in modern farmhouse and transitional designs. Takes both light stains and clear finishes exceptionally well.
- Thin: 0.6 mm
- Widths: 15/16" – 1-1/4"
- Pre-glued Available
Alder
Straight, Fine Grain — Light Tan to Reddish-BrownPopular in the cabinet industry as a cherry substitute — alder mimics cherry beautifully when stained and is significantly more affordable. Soft enough to machine and sand easily. Used widely in custom residential cabinetry and transitional kitchen designs. Matches alder-faced plywood panels.
- Thin: 0.6 mm
- Widths: 15/16" – 1-1/4"
- Pre-glued Available
African Mahogany
Interlocked to Straight Grain — Medium Reddish-BrownThe classic tropical hardwood for luxury furniture and high-end millwork. African mahogany has a beautiful reddish-brown color with occasional ribbon-stripe figure on quartersawn cuts. Used in marine cabinetry, high-end residential work, and commercial millwork. IP&L stocks mahogany lumber to pair with this edge banding.
- Thin: 0.6 mm
- Widths: 15/16" – 1-1/4"
- Pre-glued Available

Hickory
Dramatic Contrast Grain — Cream Sapwood / Brown HeartwoodThe hardest North American hardwood (Janka 1,820). Hickory’s striking light/dark contrast grain is its defining feature — ideal for rustic, farmhouse, and transitional cabinet styles. High hardness makes banded edges extremely chip and dent resistant. Perfect for high-traffic kitchen and mudroom cabinets.
