What is AB Paint Grade Quality?
Paint Grade quality refers to timber that possesses all the top mechanical strength characteristics but exhibits natural color inconsistencies on its surface.
Attention: This product is intended exclusively for constructions that will be finished with opaque paints (solid colors).
Note: If the wood remains unpainted or is coated with a transparent varnish, the color variations between segments will be visible. This is the primary characteristic of this specific quality.

Technical Advantages of D-K-D Structure
3-Layer Composition (D-K-D): The combination of layers neutralizes the internal tensions of the wood, ensuring that the frame will never deform.
Optimized Stability: Laminated technology offers superior stability compared to solid wood, ensuring the flawless operation of hardware mechanisms.
Length Flexibility: With lengths ranging from 900 to 3000 mm, production planning is possible with the least amount of waste.
High Meranti Density: Ensures natural moisture resistance and excellent paint adhesion for a perfect painted result.

Applications
Wooden Energy-Efficient Frames: Windows and balcony doors using modern painting systems.
Interior & Exterior Doors: Constructions requiring robustness and a lacquered final finish.
Hotel Complexes: A cost-effective and quality solution for large-scale projects with painted frames.
