What is curved wood?
Wood bending has been used for hundreds of years, creating wagon wheels, and more. Curved wood is one of the techniques used in the processing of wood from a long time ago Even if it is particularly prominent, it is not actually a difficult technology (especially when using pure materials). Classic examples include ship, barrel, and container types. In Native American Indians, traditional curved wood is used to make snowshoes, sleds, and canoes. In Europe, this technology has been used to manufacture chairs for a long time, such as panel chair backs and chair ladders, which can often be seen in their woodcut paintings with the existence of medieval and bronze prints. This technology used in the old society to make decisions about their traditional snowshoes as "kanjiki". Their method of bending wood is to put the material directly in a pot, cover it, and steam it, while they just press it into the desired shape.
Modern curved wood originated in northern Europe. The main method of production is to put about 20 layers of wood veneer into a mold, use glue as the adhesive, and use high-temperature and high-pressure pressing methods to bend the wood veneer to the desired arc of the designer. The main materials used are mandshurica, birch, beech, poplar, and other materials with toughness as the inner core material. The surface can be combined with better decorative patterns such as mandshurica, birch, and beech as the outer decoration. It entered the Chinese market in the mid-1990s. Compared with traditional furniture varieties, the biggest feature of curved wood is its unique bending radian. Due to the full consideration of the ups and downs of human body curves in the manufacturing process, it can reduce the fatigue of users due to long-term sitting and make the human body feel more comfortable. Nordic style curved wood products are now mainly concentrated in Shandong, Qingdao, Weifang, and other places, with obvious regional advantages. With the improvement of people's awareness of environmental protection, the development of the curved wood industry has been further promoted. With its unique charm, curved wood is leading the entire furniture industry towards low-carbon, environmental protection, green and healthy development.
