With a fine, light grain pattern and consistent color, Columbia Alder has a fresh look and great workability, making it a versatile choice for paneling, furniture and cabinetry needs. These panels from the Pacific Northwest work well with any interior design, from rustic to contemporary.

Featuring uniform colors in hues ranging from honey to pale brown, with no visible boundary between heartwood and sapwood, Columbia Alder panels are easy to both match and finish, accepting an array of finishes from clear to dark cherry.

The Veneer Core is made with alternating veneer inner plies. In North America, the innerply species are usually softwood (fir or pine) on the west coast and poplar or aspen on the east coast.

Veneer core panels are relatively light in comparison with composite panels, typically weighing about 70 lbs. per 3/4″ panel. Veneer core offers great strength and stability with better spanning properties than either particle board or medium density fiberboard (MDF). Veneer core does have a wider variance in thickness in comparison with highly engineered PBC or MDF.

Note that these panels are from a mill run production lot. Panels are shipped and accepted without regard to usability of any particular panel or portion of any panel due to any manufacturing defect or natural characteristic.Plain slice: Cutting logs in half lengthwise, then slicing the halves lengthwise produces a veneer with a unique grain patternPlank matching achieves a rustic, natural lumber effectGrade A-1No added formaldehyde (NAF)Mill run
