Edge Banding 0.6mm: How Much Does It Cover?348

As a leading Chinese furniture edge banding manufacturer, we often encounter inquiries about the coverage of our 0.6mm edge banding. Customers want to know how much linear footage a single roll of our 0.6mm edge banding can cover, which is a valid concern when calculating project requirements and budgeting.

To determine the coverage of 0.6mm edge banding, several factors need to be considered:1. Width of the edge banding: 0.6mm is the thickness of the edge banding, not the width. Most edge banding, including ours, comes in standard widths ranging from 15mm to 60mm.
2. Length of the edge banding roll: Edge banding is typically sold in rolls of varying lengths. Common lengths include 100 meters, 200 meters, and 500 meters per roll.
3. Edge thickness of the furniture substrate: The thickness of the furniture substrate (e.g., particleboard, plywood) determines how much edge banding is needed to cover the edge.

Considering these factors, here's how to calculate the coverage of 0.6mm edge banding:1. Calculate the edge length: Measure the total length of all edges that need to be covered with edge banding. This includes all visible edges of the furniture piece.
2. Determine the edge banding width: Choose the appropriate width of edge banding based on the desired coverage and aesthetics.
3. Calculate the area to be covered: Multiply the edge length by the edge banding width to get the total area to be covered in square meters.
4. Convert square meters to linear footage: Edge banding is measured in linear footage. To convert the area to linear footage, divide the area by the edge banding width.
5. Consider the edge banding thickness: The 0.6mm thickness of the edge banding adds negligible additional coverage. For practical purposes, you can ignore this factor.

Example:Let's say you have a furniture piece with edges totaling 20 meters in length. You choose 20mm wide edge banding and your furniture substrate has an edge thickness of 16mm.
Edge length: 20 meters
Edge banding width: 20mm (0.02 meters)
Area to be covered: 20 meters x 0.02 meters = 0.4 square meters
Linear footage coverage: 0.4 square meters / 0.02 meters = 20 meters

Therefore, a roll of 0.6mm edge banding with a width of 20mm and a length of 200 meters would be sufficient to cover the edges of your furniture piece.

It's important to note that the coverage calculation is an approximation. Factors such as the shape of the edges, the application method, and potential wastage can affect the actual coverage. Always order slightly more edge banding than calculated to account for these factors.
