Hi-Tech Laminated Densified Wood
Ranprex® is a high density wooden laminate made according to Norm IEC 61061. For its production, specially selected veneers of red beech wood are used as well as thermosetting resins pressed under high temperature and pressure. At the beginning of the process, every single veneer undergoes metal inspection. After the pressing process the now homogeneous plate material is metal checked once again, so as to grant its integrity. Ranprex® is available in several standard plate sizes, as well as fully machined according to customer’s drawing.
