Overview

Mini-Reed is a series of parallel grooves of differing depths giving an interesting effect. With a width of 3-10mm and a difference between the highest and lowest points of approx 3mm, this pattern can be supplied as a single-layer or composite in minimum thickness of 8mm.

Although it is available in a range of materials and finishes, and can be produced in specific panel sizes & sets, Mini-Reed is typically supplied using coloured MDF in a standard panel size of 2400x1200mm

In detail

While removing material from one side of any panel can often cause it to cup towards the machined face, the machining in this case is very subtle, so the risk of cupping is minimized.

These panels are often ordered with a diamond pattern of relieving v-grooves machined into the reverse in order to help keep the panel as flat as possible. Alternatively, a laminate can be bonded to the reverse or an additional panel such as 18mm MDF can be used in place of the laminate. This increases the overall thickness, but offers additional bulk to help with hidden fixings

This machined design repeats on a 2400x1200mm basis. However, we would advise against classing any design constructed of multiple layers of different colours as a repeating set
