Edge banding is the decorative material used on the exposed edges of furniture to cover and seal the wood. It is generally used on medium-density fiberboard, plywood, and melamine-coated particle board, whose edges look rather rough. Edge banding is a thin material used to seal the plywood's exposed and raw edges. The heat-sensitive adhesive on one side is employed on the board, while the other acts as a barrier against moisture and dirt. Edge banding is mainly done to cover plywood sides to match a cabinet's finished look, but it also shields the inner plywood from possibly warping. In addition, the uniform colors and quality provided by edge banding minimize the risk of the quality of solid wood lipping. Edge bandings materials in various widths and thicknesses can be used in a small crevasse and bent to a large extent as required.
