Saviola ABS Edgebanding For Wide-Panel Tigerwood Applications
This is the 65mm ABS edgebanding in GSDU6 Lava, part of the Saviola collection from SALT International. The Tigerwood finish carries the bold grain pattern of the Lava decor onto exposed panel edges, closing the gap between a cut board and a finished component. The roll covers 54 linear feet and is sized for 19mm and thicker panel stock.
Key Features
- 65mm width provides ample overhang on thick panels, leaving enough material to trim both faces cleanly after application.
- 54-foot short roll suits single-project or small-shop runs without committing to a full production roll.
- 1mm ABS construction is chlorine-free, clearing specifications that exclude PVC edgebanding.
- Tigerwood finish in GSDU6 Lava matches the Saviola panel decor at the edge so face and band read as one surface.
- Vendor-matched color is produced by the same panel maker, ensuring the decor, gloss, and texture align across the joined surfaces.
Where Wide Edgebanding Pays Off
The 65mm width is the right choice when a panel edge needs to handle more than a flush trim. Thick cabinet sides, stacked bases, and double-panel constructions all produce edges that a narrower band cannot reliably cover. This width also suits any application where the edgebander is set for a generous overhang and both face and back trims are taken in a single pass. The Tigerwood Lava decor carries a strong linear grain, so a clean, full-width edge band keeps the visual story intact across a door frame or a wide shelf end.
Construction and Material
ABS polymer is the material of choice in European decorative panel programs, and SALT International sources the edgebanding to match its own panel production. The 1mm thickness is the standard specification for cabinet edgebanding applied by machine, thick enough to cover a core edge cleanly and thin enough not to build out at a joint. Because ABS is chlorine-free, it is compatible with green building specifications and projects where PVC content is restricted. The Tigerwood finish is a surface treatment applied by the vendor to reproduce the Lava decor, not a field-applied coating, so the color and gloss are part of the strip itself.
Who Should Use This Roll
Cabinet shops running Saviola Lava panels and needing to band panels thicker than 19mm are the primary buyer. The 65mm width is the widest in the Saviola edgebanding program and is the correct specification whenever the panel edge exceeds what a 23mm or 43mm band can span with adequate trim allowance. The 54-foot roll is also well suited to designers or custom shops who build in small batches and want a genuine manufacturer match without taking on a full production roll. If the job calls for a narrower band on the same Lava color, the 23mm and 43mm widths are available in separate listings.
Why is the roll only 54 feet when other widths come in 328-foot rolls?
The short roll is offered in the two wider widths, 43mm and 65mm, specifically because shops rarely need hundreds of feet of a wide band in a single color. A 54-foot roll gets a small or mid-size job done without leaving most of the roll unused on a shelf.
Is this edgebanding pre-glued?
No. This roll is unglued stock intended for application on an edgebander with a glue pot. It is not iron-on banding. For pre-glued application on a repair or field installation, a different product is needed.
Will this band match a Saviola Lava TFL panel exactly?
It is the vendor-produced match for GSDU6 Lava. Because the edgebanding is made by the same panel manufacturer, the decor and surface character are as close as a match can be. Natural variation in production runs means a sample comparison before a critical job is always sound practice.
Can I use this edgebanding on a panel from a different collection?
The band is color-matched to Saviola GSDU6 Lava. Whether it reads as a match on a panel from another collection depends entirely on whether that panel shares the same decor. If you are working with a non-Saviola panel in a similar Tigerwood tone, request a physical sample before committing to the roll.
The Right Edge for the Right Decor
A panel edge that matches the face is what turns a cut board into a finished part. This 65mm Saviola ABS edgebanding in GSDU6 Lava delivers a vendor-matched Tigerwood edge on wide stock, in a roll size that fits the way most custom shops actually work.
