We are pleased to introduce Zero Edge Laser Edgebanded doors to our product line. This type of edgebanding eliminates the traditional glue line creating a seamless monolithic panel. Our laser edgebander, imported from Germany, produces cabinet doors with unmatched beauty and strength. How does it do this? Edge tape is manufactured by extruding a polymer through a die. For laser edge tape, a second layer of polymer matching the color of the base layer is co-extruded. During the edgebanding process the tape is fed in front of a laser, melting the new polymer layer allowing it to adhere to the substrate. Because the melted portion also matches the color of the panel, an invisible bond is formed. Another important element of our edgebanded is its servo controlled contour trimming unit. This produces perfectly rounded corners on every door ensuring the most beautiful results possible. The benefits to you, the cabinet manufacturer, are many. First of all, a product can now be offered that is equal to or better than the high end European cabinetry being imported into the market place. No importer can match the service and flexibility that you provide your customers. This offers a huge advantage as Zero Edge doors are increasingly sought after by designers and their clients for kitchens, baths and closets. In addition to their beauty, they are requested for health-care, restaurant and public use installations because there is no glue line to harbor bacteria. All of us here at Drees are excited about this shared opportunity. There are many choices in the market and more coming. The images shown on this page are samples from various Zero Eedge jobs produced recently. The following page shows jobs using PUR. We advise you to go to the various websites of the panel manufacturers to determine what colors and patterns are being offered. Many are in stock in Southern California and can ship within a few days. Out of stock lead times vary.

Not all panel substrates have a laser-ready tape available. For those applications we use PUR to create the thinnest strongest glue line possible. The electronic applicator on our edgebander applies a precise, consistent amount of glue making it nearly invisible.

We are also offering 5 piece edgebanded doors with a flush haunched joint. They are an attractive alternative to the standard doors offered in the industry.
This type of joint also allows glass doors to be made with the edgebanding applied to the inside of the frame before assembly, saving an enormous amount of labor over attempting to apply it to a routed slab after the fact. Works well with wood veneer doors also.
