Backers & Crossbands

FormWood backers and crossbands support balanced panel construction, reliable lamination and consistent finished results. From stabilizing backers that help prevent warping to synthetic crossbands that offer uniform thickness and smoothness, these products help fabricators build better panels from the inside out.

Helps reduce movement

Backers and crossbands support more balanced panel construction and help reduce warping.

Improves consistency

Synthetic materials offer uniformity that natural wood products cannot always provide.

Application-specific options

FormWood can recommend the right backer or crossband based on your core, face, construction and finishing needs.
