FAQ

About Our Products

What material do you use in making different types of furniture?

Most of our wooden furniture ranges like office desks, conference tables, cabinets etc are manufactured using the highest quality of E1 grade MDF, hard wood and natural wood veneer that impart a rich and luxurious look and feel to the furniture. There are also some product ranges that are made with laminates instead of veneer. (Read the section below to know more about laminates and veneers and other materials) The material used in our upholstered furniture like chairs and sofas ranges from high quality genuine leather to fabrics to artificial leather in some cases.

What is MDF?

Medium density fiber board (MDF) is a high grade, composite material that performs better than solid wood in many areas. Made from recycled wood fibers and resin, MDF is machine dried and pressed to produce dense, dimensionally stable sheets. Its smooth, controlled surface allows it to be easily painted, carved, rounded and applied with wood veneers and is a world standard for manufactured furniture.

Why MDF and why not solid wood?

Isn’t solid wood the best choice? This is a question we’re frequently asked and you may be surprised that the answer is “not necessarily.”

Often used as a substitute for hardwoods, MDF or medium density fiber board is generally believed to be a lower quality material. However, in many cases MDF is actually stronger and more stable than hardwoods. Since it’s an engineered material with no natural grain, it can be used without worry of cracks or splitting. Because it’s easily worked by saw, MDF is often needed to produce the detailed curves found in highly ornamented furniture and its smooth, controlled surface allows it to be easily painted or applied with wood veneers.

Another consideration is cost; here, too, MDF is often a better value. Solid wood is often more expensive and sometimes is not as readily available. MDF’s smooth and even surface allows paint and veneer to be easily applied to it which allows it to replicate the finish of most popular hard wood designs at a lower cost. It is definitely a substitute, but one which provides a host of unique benefits which cannot be replicated by hard wood products.

What is the life and durability of your products?

Our products are designed tested and manufactured in advanced state-of-the-art facilities using the highest grades of materials and technology. With a little care and maintenance they can last you for as long as you use them.

What are veneers? And how are they different from laminates?

Veneers are thin layers of wood cut from a tree that give a piece a more uniform natural exterior and appearance. Because they are natural wood they are richer and luxurious in their look and feel than a laminate which is an artificial substitute.

Not just the pretty face of your wood furniture, veneers can enhance durability while allowing you to create a consistent look in your office. Applied to the surface of other wood materials, Veneers can also increase the life of a piece by preventing the wood from expanding and contracting. Caused by changes in temperature, this contraction can cause solid wood to split over time. Since veneers are glued in strips of opposing grain patterns, they help stabilize the wood and prevent it from shrinking. The end result is a durable, high-quality piece that looks great.
