328-Foot ABS Edgebanding Roll for Production Cabinet Runs
This SM'art collection ABS edgebanding in color SMM023 Epic closes the cut edges of decorative panel casework with a factory-matched surface in the Manhattan finish. The 43mm width is sized to trim flush on panels up to 1-1/2 inches thick, and the 328-foot roll keeps a production shop running through multiple cabinet runs without switching stock.
Key Features
- Color-matched to SMM023 Epic — produced in the same decor as the SM'art panel collection so face and edge read as one continuous surface.
- Manhattan finish — the texture and sheen character align with the SM'art panel face for a consistent appearance at every visible edge.
- 43mm width — covers panels up to approximately 1-1/2 inches thick with enough overhang to trim cleanly on both faces.
- 1mm ABS construction — chlorine-free polymer that holds color through machining and resists chipping on handled cabinet edges.
- 328-foot production roll — volume footage for commercial and shop runs where short rolls would mean constant changeovers.
Where This Edgebanding Fits the Job
A 328-foot roll at 43mm is a production-floor decision. It suits cabinet shops building runs of box components, shelf stock, and door frames in the SM'art Epic color where every exposed edge needs to match the panel face. The 43mm width handles the 19mm panels that dominate frameless casework and stays wide enough to manage a 25mm shelf edge without a second banding pass. Closet and storage jobs that cover a lot of linear edge footage in a single color are the natural home for this roll size — the footage is there when the run demands it, and the color stays consistent from the first cabinet to the last.
Material and Finish Details
ABS edgebanding is extruded from acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, a chlorine-free polymer. That matters on commercial specifications that restrict PVC, and it makes the material the default choice for European-aligned panel programs like SM'art. At 1mm, the band has enough body to resist the edge impacts a cabinet sees in daily use while remaining thin enough to glue down cleanly on an edgebander without a visible seam. The Manhattan finish is applied in production to match the corresponding SM'art panel decor, so the color relationship between face and edge is engineered, not approximated.
Who Reaches for This Roll
Cabinet shops and millwork operations that have already committed to SM'art Epic panels for a project are the primary buyer here. The 43mm width and 328-foot run length are overkill for a single custom piece but exactly right for a commercial fit-out, a multifamily housing package, or any shop that pulls this color regularly and wants a full roll in inventory rather than ordering short. Designers specifying SM'art Epic for a large run should confirm this SKU alongside the panel order so the color match is guaranteed from the same production program.
Will this banding work on a standard automatic edgebander?
Yes. At 1mm thickness and 43mm width, this roll feeds through most production edgebanders without special setup. Confirm your machine's minimum and maximum banding width before loading, as feed tolerances vary by brand and model.
Does the Manhattan finish match exactly across the panel and the banding?
The banding is produced by SALT International to coordinate with the SM'art SMM023 Epic panel in the Manhattan finish. Color and texture alignment is engineered within the same collection, but panels and banding are manufactured separately, so a sample verification before a large run is always sound practice.
Is ABS banding acceptable on projects that specify no PVC materials?
Yes. ABS is a chlorine-free polymer, which is the typical basis for PVC exclusions in green building and commercial specifications. Confirm the specific specification language with your project team if the requirement is formal.
Is a shorter roll available in this color and width?
The 328-foot roll is the standard run length for SM'art edgebanding at 43mm. Short rolls in the 54-foot length are available in the two wider widths only — not in the 43mm width. If the 328-foot commitment is more than the job needs, coordinate with your sales contact to explore options.
The Right Edge for a Color You Have Already Chosen
When the panel is already specified, the edgebanding is a match decision, not a separate one. SMM023 Epic in 43mm delivers the footage and the finish to close out a production run cleanly, so the edge disappears into the face and the job ships looking the way it was designed.
