REAL WOOD CHARACTER FOR THE ROOMS YOU CREATE
Give your interior a wood palette of its own.
A natural wood face brings grain and colour into the design of furniture, cabinet fronts and wall panels. Choose the character you want people to see, then carry it through the adjoining materials and finished components.
CUZI's natural veneer range includes red oak, walnut, beech, sapele, bintangor and okoume. Panels are available in 3–30 mm with poplar, birch or eucalyptus cores, single or double sided, with veneer matching available.
Bring us an interior reference, a furniture drawing or the wood direction you have in mind. Start with free samples to compare beside your flooring, edging and hardware, then plan the selected panels into your next mixed container.
Natural grain or a designed wood pattern?
Choose natural wood for its individual grain and character, or compare a reconstituted wood pattern for a planned design direction. Reconstituted veneer is wood recomposed into a decorative pattern; specify its constituent material as well as the pattern name. Keep the selected type explicit in the inquiry and quotation.
Scroll horizontally to compare all columns.

Include the furniture detail in the next trial
When the design includes a routed edge, hinge recess or two-sided shelf, try that detail on the proposed construction with your production process. Review the finished component and actual hardware beside the chosen wood range before settling the item specification.
SELECTED PANEL GROUPS READY FOR RECEIVING
Protect the faces and make the layout easy to follow.
Discuss face and edge protection, panel direction and group labels for the proposed veneer order. Match the pack identification to the numbered elevation or item schedule, with selected spare panels clearly identified.
Regular production guidance is 10–15 days; shipping time is additional. Request FOB with the shipment port or CIF with the destination port, and share your target receiving date. Agree the item and delivery schedule with the quotation.
Include your destination and receiving requirements, unloading method and any pack-size or weight limits. Keep the palette and range reference available when the received panels are sorted for cutting. Use the physical veneer range guide, the panel group/label schedule and the storage and acclimatisation guide with the received material.
Connect receiving observations to the right panel group
Check quantities and labels against the schedule, then record the visible pack and face condition before processing. Use the pack and group references with photographs or questions so the selected wood range can be compared with the affected items.
YOUR SELECTED WOOD PALETTE IN THE NEXT CONTAINER
Order the panel mix your business actually uses.
Orders start at one container, with mixed loads available. Combine your chosen veneer items with other plywood or MDF, listing the thickness, core, faces, size and quantity for each item.
Furniture and cabinet manufacturers
Build the selected palette around repeat furniture items. Retain the physical wood range, joined finish sample and construction with each drawing. Identify any changed veneer, core, edging or finish in the next inquiry so the new offer follows the component you intend to make.
Interior buyers and panel distributors
Connect closely coordinated groups to their room or elevation. Plan staged requirements and selected spares with the full project quantities, then keep those references identifiable through packing, receiving and cutting.
Match the selection effort to visible groups
List adjoining cabinet fronts and continuous walls separately from pieces viewed in different rooms. Describe the character range allowed in each group. Compare quotations using the same layout and selection scope so the offered material relates to the usable panels in your project.
ONE WOOD DIRECTION ACROSS A WALL AND OPEN FURNITURE
Carry the palette through the room without losing its character.
A project combines a continuous wall with open shelves and separate furniture pieces. Begin by arranging several finished veneer samples beside the flooring and painted surfaces. Select a target and a natural variation range that belong in the room.
Mark the continuous wall as one viewing group, with panel positions and grain arrows. Identify both visible shelf faces and the edging shown against the wall. Give the separate furniture items their own range within the selected palette, with the component construction and finish on each drawing.
Quote the project by those groups and quantities. Keep the finished range, palette references and selected spares connected to the panel schedule for fabrication, later phases and repeat purchases.
Evaluate the complete palette when the colour needs adjusting
Review the wood beside the actual neighbours under the project light. Compare a revised finish or selected veneer range on a trial piece, then update the affected palette and item reference. Keep the proposed construction and finish with that choice.
Give each viewing group its own reference.
In an illustrative room schedule, W01–W03 are three neighbouring wall panels, F01 is a separate furniture item and S01 is a selected spare for the wall group. Review W01–W03 together against the finished range; specify F01 by its own visible faces and edging. Give S01 the same group reference in the packing schedule.
For a later phase, compare the new veneer or reconstituted batch with your saved finished sample and the adjoining installed panels. Include the new quantities and matching arrangement in the quotation.
Plan your groups and later phasesONE REFERENCE FOR DESIGN, PURCHASING AND THE WORKSHOP

YOUR NATURAL VENEER BUYING QUESTIONS
Choose the wood direction and the next step with confidence.
Which wood veneers can I choose?
The confirmed range includes red oak, walnut, beech, sapele, bintangor and okoume. Name the species and compare representative finished samples with the adjoining materials in your project.
Which thicknesses and cores are available?
Panels are available in 3–30 mm with poplar, birch or eucalyptus cores. Specify the selected construction and tolerances for the component, with the required bond and destination in the inquiry.
Can I order two visible faces and matching?
Single and double sided panels are available, with veneer matching. Mark the viewing surfaces and adjoining groups, and confirm the matching arrangement for the proposed wood and layout.
Which sheet sizes should I put on the schedule?
Start the veneer layout with regular sheets of 1220 × 2440, 1250 × 2500 or 1525 × 3050 mm. Request formats including 1220 × 3050 and 1250 × 3660 mm, or specified cut components, when developing larger elevations. Connect the chosen format to grain direction and the panel cutting plan.
What does natural describe in the offer?
Here it describes the wood veneer face and its grain and colour character. Specify the surface preparation, any supplied coating, core and bond separately, with product documents for your required emission standard.
How should I compare the wood with flooring and trim?
Use physical finished samples beside the actual adjoining materials under the project light. Include your edging and select a target with the variation range you want the room or furniture to carry.
How do I plan a continuous wall?
Provide a numbered elevation, grain arrows and the groups seen together. Select the matching arrangement and appearance range through the proposed veneer, and keep those references with the cutting and packing schedule.
Which page helps with decorative matching?
The fancy plywood guide covers matching and panel sequence. Compare walnut plywood or beech-faced joinery for defined furniture wood directions; discuss teak-faced panels as a separate decorative inquiry.
How can I request samples?
Share the veneers, construction, intended use and delivery country. Samples are free; you pay courier freight, which is credited in full against your formal order. Include a colour or interior reference when you have one.
Can natural veneer items go in a mixed load?
Yes. The minimum order is one container, with mixed loads available. List quantities by item and identify any selected matching groups, staged requirements and spare panels.
How do I prepare a repeat order?
Use the retained finished range, construction and item drawings. Name the FOB or CIF port, quantities and target receiving date, and identify any changed wood selection, finish or layout in the new inquiry.
How do natural and reconstituted veneers differ in the offer?
For natural veneer, name the actual wood species/cut and chosen physical character range. For reconstituted veneer, name the pattern code, constituent wood and proposed lot range. Compare both finished face types beside the same project materials.
Will a new lot reproduce the previous room palette exactly?
Use the retained finished target/range or pattern master with the original coating and drawing. Compare the proposed lot beside the adjoining material, then quote the selection scope and new group quantities. Prepare the repeat inquiry with changes and phased requirements.
How much veneer can my workshop sand or route?
Ask for the veneer schedule and preparation, then try your machining or sanding on the proposed construction. Check the veneer left after processing so the finished face meets your needs.
Can a pattern name describe the constituent wood or core?
The pattern is a decorative reference. Record the actual constituent wood of a reconstituted veneer and the plywood’s inner species/layer schedule separately. Request the item’s material file, including the method/results needed for its destination.
Should my spare panels be selected with the main viewing group?
Identify the spare’s intended wall, front or furniture group and compare it with that finished range. Label it separately while retaining the group and lot references. Include spares in the phase schedule with the complete quantities.
Will natural wood veneer look identical on every sheet?
Wood grain and colour vary across veneer faces. Select a physical finished range and matching arrangement for the groups seen together, with grain direction and panel positions on the design.
Which guides can help me choose this panel?
For this product, read Natural veneer approval: build an appearance range board or Veneer panel sequence: labels from cutting to installation. Use the panel comparison to compare your shortlist before requesting samples or a quotation.
