Edge Tapes
At Joinery Supplies Tasmania
In the cabinetry, joinery, and furniture industries, edge banding, also known as edge tape, edging, or edge strip refers to a narrow strip of veneer or plastic applied to the exposed edges of panels or boards.
Edge banding is used to cover the raw edges of substrates such as MDF, particleboard, and decorative panels, providing both a finished appearance and additional protection. When decorative materials such as laminate, melamine, or timber veneer are pressed onto the face of a panel, the internal substrate remains visible on the edges. Edge tape is applied to seal and finish these edges, creating a clean, professional result.
Joinery Supplies Tasmania stocks a wide range of decorative edge banding solutions to suit cabinetry, furniture manufacturing, and interior joinery projects.

Veneer Edge Tape
Veneer edge tape is a natural timber edge banding solution used to finish panels with a genuine wood appearance. Made from thin slices of real timber veneer, these edge tapes are designed to match timber veneer panels and natural wood finishes.
Veneer edge banding is commonly used in high-end cabinetry, furniture manufacturing, architectural joinery, and interior design projects where the natural look and feel of timber is required.
Benefits of veneer edge tape include:
- Genuine timber finish for a natural appearance
- Can be sanded, stained, or finished to match timber veneers
- Suitable for furniture, cabinetry, and architectural joinery
- Provides a seamless look with timber veneer panels
Veneer edging is typically supplied in pre-glued or fleece-backed rolls, allowing cabinet makers to apply the edge using standard edge banding machinery or heat activation methods. This type of edging provides the authentic look of solid timber while maintaining the stability and cost efficiency of panel-based construction.
