Rotary Peeled Veneers Hardwood Frequently Asked Questions PEELED vs. SLICED VENEERS How are Rotary Peeled and Plane Sliced Veneers made? Rotary peeled and sliced veneers are both made by drawing sharp knives through the log cutting thin layers. Rotary peeled veneers are made by cutting in a circular motion from the outside of the log into the center. Plane sliced veneers are cut length wise from one end of a log to the other end. What are the differences between Peeled and Sliced Veneers? • Rotary peeled veneers are generally less expensive because the process utilizes a higher percentage of the log. With some species, like oak and hickory, you can get a wide grain effect. (As you can see below label Rotary Peeled.) • Plane sliced veneers are most often used in high end furniture. It tends to be more expensive because it utilizes less of the log. Sliced veneers are very stable and have graining that closely matches solid wood flooring. (As you can see below label Sliced Veneers.) END Plane Sliced Veneers
