Koa veneer
Our sheets of Koa veneer are paper thin at roughly 0.6 mm thick. The backing material used in our veneers is called “Spanbond” and is a special fleece material that is very thin for maximum flexibility in the veneer without cracking. The veneers can be rolled up tight into a box for easy shipping and when unrolled in your shop they will lay flat right away and will be ready for adhesion to plywood or whatever substrate you choose.
