What is Grid-Pattern Edge Banding?

Grid-pattern edge banding, also known as grid-pattern edging or reticulated edge banding, is a decorative and functional edge treatment for furniture and other wood products. It involves applying a strip of material with a grid-like pattern to the exposed edges of a piece of furniture, providing protection, enhancing aesthetics, and adding a unique design element. The grid pattern itself can vary considerably, featuring different thicknesses, colors, materials, and grid sizes. The "grid" can be formed by various methods, including embossing, carving, or even the inherent texture of the material.
