Abstract

A method to produce a veneered element, the method including applying a first layer on a substrate, applying a second layer on a veneer layer, applying the veneer layer with the second layer applied thereto on the first layer, such that the second layer is facing the first layer, pressing the first layer, the second layer and the veneer layer together to form a veneered element, thereby material originating from the second layer permeates into the veneer layer, and wherein, after pressing, the first layer is visible through a crack, cavity, hole and/or knot of the veneer layer. Also, a veneered element.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A veneered element, comprising
a substrate,
a first layer arranged on the substrate,
a second layer arranged on the first layer, and
a veneer layer arranged on the second layer, wherein the first layer is visible through a defect of the veneer layer, and wherein material originating from the second layer is present in the veneer layer.

2. A veneered element according to claim 1 , wherein no material originating from the second layer is present in the defect of the veneer layer.

3. A veneered element according to claim 1 , wherein the defect of the veneer layer is at least partially filled with material originating from at least the first layer.

4. A veneered element according to claim 1 , wherein the second layer is transparent or translucent.

5. A veneered element according to claim 1 , wherein the second layer is adapted to prevent material originating from the first layer from permeating into the veneer layer.

6. A veneered element according to claim 1 , wherein the first layer comprises pigments and/or dyes.

7. A veneered element according to claim 1 , wherein the first layer has a substantially uniform colour.

8. A veneered element according to claim 1 , wherein the second layer is free from pigments and dyes.

9. A veneered element according to claim 1 , wherein the second layer has a different colour than the first layer.

10. A veneered element according to claim 1 , wherein the substrate comprises a wood-based board, a particleboard, a thermoplastic board, a plywood, a lamella core, a veneer layer, a sheet, or a non-woven.
