Product overview
Birch has a light, uniform face with fine grain that takes paint, lacquer and laminate well. That makes it the standard choice for visible-edge furniture and premium interior panels.
Kosmex lists C, D, E and F birch face grades. Core grade (A or AB) and glue system are agreed for each order.
