BIID Awards Sponsor: Havwoods celebrates wood on all surfaces

Havwoods, the prevailing name in beautiful wood flooring design, has recently expanded their product portfolio from the extensive range of over 400 wood flooring products into all wood for all surfaces. This move has seen the launch of many exciting new wood surface collections suitable for walls and ceilings.

Elegante Veneers is one of the new collections introduced by Havwoods. With versatility, flexibility and sustainability at the heart of the range, the new collection is part of Havwoods’ new journey to enhance its product portfolio to offer ranges that go beyond the floor. Meticulously milled in the rolling countryside of the Pesaro e Urbino province of central Italy, the new Elegante Veneers offer three-dimensional beauty in intricate patterns that can add beauty and intrigue to any vertical surface.

Elegante Veneers are offered in a range of different surface styles including Fresato (milled), Costato (ribbed) and Ondato (waved). Each surface can be personalised to suit every preference, with each offering different levels of flexibility and adaptability to suit the surface in question. The collection is designed to meet almost any application from veneer-covered kitchen islands and furniture to feature wall and ceiling coverings.

First introduced at Clerkenwell Design Week in May 2023, the Elegante Veneers are made from reconstituted Italian ALPI veneer from Ayous trees. A tropical tree native to West and Central Africa, the Ayous tree is fast-growing and sustainably produced, offering a grain neutral timber that can be easily coloured and processed to create beautifully dynamic surface solutions that replicate any timber species.

The low-density structure means the veneer sheets are extremely lightweight compared to an alternate wood equivalent. As the products are sold in sheets, the result is a unique but colour consistent flexible surface solution that can be installed on walls, ceilings, furniture, cabinetry and subtle curved surfaces.

Elegante Veneers by Havwoods are available in three construction formats, 14 beautiful designs and 12 stunning colours. Contact Havwoods to find out more or to request samples, or visit one of the showrooms. Further details here.
