FAQ
What is DymaLux?
DymaLux is a resin-infused birch laminate that is dyed into warm wood tones as well as bright, multicolor patterns. The added resin and extreme pressure used during the production process give DymaLux its phenomenal strength and stability. The material is water & heat resistant, twice as dense as rock maple, harder than African blackwood, machines like a dream, and requires no finish coat.
Common applications for DymaLux include knife handles, pistol grips, bow grips, game calls, kitchen utensils, jewelry, and so much more.
What is Spectraply?
SpectraPly is a Grade A birch veneer laminate. Each individual veneer is colored throughout with vivid, water-based dyes. Once the veneers are arranged into a limitless number of stunning color patterns, they are then coated with non-toxic adhesive and pressed into panels in a variety of thicknesses.
Common applications for SpectraPly include rifle stocks, pistol grips, knife handles, game calls, kitchen utensils, walking sticks, pens, pepper mills, and so much more.
Both materials are composed of the same birch veneers, but because of the resin infusion, DymaLux is much harder and heavier than SpectraPly, which is simply a dyed veneer laminate. Regardless of size or color pattern, SpectraPly will maintain nearly the same physical properties as natural birch regarding weight, density, machinability, and finishing options. Since DymaLux is already 30% plasticized, it is very resistant to water, heat, dents, scratches, and although it requires no finish, it can be oiled or polished for a matte or glossy look. It is harder on tooling than SpectraPly, but machines very well.
