Edgebanding (or edge banding, same thing) is a finishing technique used to cover the exposed edges of materials like plywood, MDF, and particleboard. It's a crucial step in creating a polished, professional look for your woodworking projects. Without edge banding, the raw edges of these materials can look unsightly and be prone to damage.

Or, at least, that's the idea. Sometimes it looks like crap. Not ours. 

What is Edgebanding Made From?

Edge banding can be made from a variety of materials, each with its own advantages:

• PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride): Durable and easy to work with, PVC is a popular choice for its resistance to moisture and impact.
• Wood Veneer: This offers a natural look and can be matched to the wood species of your project. It's perfect for high-end finishes.
• Melamine: Affordable and available in many colors and patterns, melamine is a versatile option.
• Acrylic: Known for its glossy finish and modern look, acrylic edgebanding can make your projects stand out.

Common Edgebanding Problems

Despite its benefits, edge banding can present a few challenges:

• Peeling: Poor adhesion can cause edgebanding to peel away from the substrate. This is often due to inadequate application of adhesive or insufficient pressure during the bonding process.
• Gaps: Inconsistent edge banding application can leave unsightly gaps along the edges.
• Chipping: Low-quality edgebanding or improper trimming can lead to chips and cracks.
• Misalignment: Uneven application can result in a crooked or misaligned edge, detracting from the overall appearance of your project.
