In woodworking, veneer refers to thin slices of wood, usually thinner than 3 mm (1/8 inch), that typically are glued onto core panels (typically, wood, particle board or medium-density fiberboard) to produce flat panels such as doors, tops and panels for cabinets, parquet floors and parts of furniture.
Veneer is thin layer of wood, about the thickness of of 1/8 inch. It is created by thinly slicing a piece of wood. Veneer can have many different grain directions depending on process of cutting and slicing.

Veneer is used in the furniture industry and many others. In furniture you can have massive boards covered in veneer, this helps reduce the use of solid wood and can change a standard wood behaviour. In the end veneer wood is a thin sheet of wood. Which can be then added and joint together to greater sizes.

Particle board veneer offers a cost-effective option for furniture construction, as it is less expensive than solid wood. It also provides a smooth and uniform surface for finishing.

Additionally, the veneer can chip or peel over time, affecting the overall appearance of the furniture.
