The long laminated strip: 130 x 7.6 x 2.3 cm, white ash over a laminated core. Length and slenderness are the point — a long, light, curved line that covers a full-height back or a wide span without a joint, in a section thin enough to follow a pronounced curve.
What the dimensions mean
At 130 cm the strip covers a tall back or a wide span in one piece. At 7.6 cm wide it presents a clean line — the proportion for verticals and long horizontals rather than surfaces. At 2.3 cm the section is slender, which is what lets it follow a deep curve; the lamination is what lets it hold that curve at this length, where a solid blank would need exceptional grain straightness and would still be at risk of running out.

Where this size is used
- Full-height back slats — verticals covering a tall back without a joint.
- Long curved rails — horizontals spanning wide frames.
- Deep-curve elements — pronounced curves the section could not hold in solid stock.
- Lighting frames — long curved lines for shade structures.
Why laminate a strip this size
A 130 cm bend is where solid timber gets expensive. The blank has to be long, straight-grained and knot-clear — the further the bend, the more any grain run-out matters — and such blanks are rare. Lamination reaches the length reliably: thin ash veneers each bend easily, the mould holds the curve, and springback stays at 1–3%. The cross-layered core also keeps the strip stable along its length, where a long solid element would be more prone to twisting as it moves with humidity.
Faces and finishes
The ash faces finish like solid ash — oil, stain or lacquer, with the open grain reading clearly at this width. Edges show the layer lines; where the strip is seen edge-on, as back slats usually are, they read as a deliberate detail rather than a compromise.
Frequently asked questions
Can longer strips be produced?
Yes — lengths are made to order in laminated construction; 210 cm is our longest standard strip.
Is the face solid ash?
The faces are ash veneer over a laminated core; the edges show the layer lines.
Why not solid bending at this length?
Long solid blanks with the grain straightness a bend demands are rare and costly; lamination reaches the length reliably with better stability.
What radius does this section reach?
A pronounced curve comfortably — send the drawing and we will confirm feasibility.

Programme notes
Long laminated strips are scheduled around press and drying capacity, and the length is planned into the schedule rather than promised around it. For programmes running this strip at volume, the mould is the consistency asset: every piece comes off the same form, so a re-order matches the original within the documented tolerance. Where a programme also runs the shorter laminated strips, the same mould family produces them, which keeps the curves matched across a collection.
Strips are packed to support the full length of the curve — a strip that arrives kinked cannot be straightened at your bench. Inspection reports accompany each shipment, with the standard warranty against warping and cracking in transit and use.
