E. M. Cummings Veneers, Inc., was founded in New Albany, Indiana in 1936 after E. M. Cummings developed glue size, a veneer treatment process, that would give Crotch Mahogany the stability and flexibility required to match and cut the material while still maintaining the integrity of the piece.

Along with the development of this process, Rohm & Haas developed Tego Glue.  With these two products in hand, E. M. Cummings was able to offer his customers a product that would not check or move; a thin flexible panel named 2-Ply.  Interestingly, both of these products were revolutionary for their time 71 years ago and even today, remain the best way to handle difficult or fragile species of wood.

We pride ourselves in producing a high-quality product!  Our customers vary in size from national furniture companies, to the custom furniture shops!  We also offer laser cutting of sketch faces which allow us to produce intricate designs and maintain tight tolerances for large or small production runs.
