Furniture manufacturing involves different materials and production processes, from veneer preparation and panel production to the handling and packaging of finished components. Waco offers a range of adhesive tape products for different industrial requirements. Explore the relevant applications and identify products suited to your process.
Veneer pieces must be held edge to edge to form a usable sheet, often across different wood species.
Sheets can shift during preparation, veneering and pressing if joints are not held in place.
On pale or thin decorative veneers, the joining material should not show through as shadows or impressions.
Much of today’s furniture is built from plywood and veneered panels. Decorative face veneers are joined into wider sheets, laid over core material and pressed — and each of these stages places different demands on the materials used to hold veneer together.
Tape selection therefore depends on the task: a pale, thin decorative veneer needs a joint that won’t leave visible marks, while a sheet going into a press needs to stay aligned under heat and pressure. Choosing by stage and material matters more than choosing a single all-purpose tape.
Determine the material, the manufacturing stage and the task for which tape is required.
Review Waco's documented product uses and specifications to identify an appropriate option for the intended application.
Confirm suitability and relevant application requirements, then use the product according to its specifications and instructions.
Waco offers separate products for decorative veneer, face veneer and core veneer, so each stage can use a tape designed for it.
Veneer tapes help join veneer pieces closely, and Decorative White Veneer Tape helps join and repair cracks in decorative veneer.
Face Veneer Tape helps prevent veneer sheets from shifting during preparation, veneering and pressing.
Match the product to your conditions — for example, Core Veneer Tape is formulated to withstand hot-press heat and pressure.

In veneered furniture production, veneer tapes are commonly used to join, repair and hold veneer sheets during preparation and pressing. Veneer splicing can also be done with glue thread on veneer stitching machines.
Decorative White Veneer Tape, Face Veneer Tape and Core Veneer Tape cover decorative, face and core veneer work. KUPER Glue Thread is available for hot-air and electric veneer stitching machines.
Start with the material and stage — decorative surface, face veneer or core — then compare each product’s documented use and specifications. If you are unsure, share your process details with Waco to confirm suitability.
