Hot Press Veneer Professionals

Hot Press Veneer Professionals are More Successful and Profitable with Sing Core

For years, Sing Core has been providing high-end local and nationwide hot press veneer professionals with premium core material that eliminates the need for crossbanding.

Let’s face it, nothing can compete with the beauty and elegance of a perfectly hot-pressed panel, and for that sweet-spot in the marketplace, those clients that demand the best and are willing to pay for it. Millworkers choose to have Sing Core provide the substrate for their doors. Our substrate provides the best basis for laying veneer. The manufacturers and millworks that have Sing Core inside their hot-pressed products are making bank by specializing in these ultra-high-end projects.

Sing Core provides the perfect substrate for laying veneer. With our True Flat technology, the surface is always truly flat and smooth. If you are skilled with laying veneer, we recommend purchasing our panels with a 1/8″ MDF over 1/4″ plywood skin. The plywood provides additional strength while the MDF exterior provides a supremely smooth surface for veneering. If you plan to apply wood staves, then we recommend purchasing your panel with our AB grade plywood.

From the Inventor of Sing Core

Sing Core Inventor Peter Sing

I get asked by hot press veneer shops, if we are in competition with them? And the answer is, “No.” Even though we are specified by architects all over the country in large veneer projects, and mostly in huge veneer doors, we do not do the veneer. What we do is to provide our substrate to the best hot press veneer professionals we know. If a contractor contacts us first because we were spec’d on the job, we have him tell us which veneer company he wants us to work with, and my team is willing to help match up the best material and veneer services if they ask us for their advice, and that’s what we do.

I have invented patented and patent-pending solutions for high precision veneer projects that take the pain out of the challenges normally associated with big, long-spanning high-end jobs, anywhere from the San Francisco MOMA to the top of the World Trade Center’s Freedom Tower.

The top reasons the architects specify Sing Core is because

We use only the best hot-press veneer companies to apply the best veneers, because I understand that doing veneering really great is an art, and we suggest only using the best artist, as you would on any important project.

My company does what we do best, that is to provide the best substrate for veneer specialists to lay high quality veneer with the best guarantees in the woodworking industry.

The people and companies that I work with are the best in their field and they don’t have to worry anymore about if this will work or how to solve problems associated with weight, dimensional stability, warping, or long lifespan. We’ve spent years in R&D to make sure that the biggest doors in the world do not have to warp anymore, and the biggest door companies trust me to make it so. In the last 10 years, they have not reported a single failed door, even including doors of immense size. Not one.

My core is stronger than steel pound for pound and less than 1/3 the weight of doors made of solid wood core. Sing Core provides a high precision strong full bonding surface for veneering to that is so smooth crossbanding is not required. How high precision? Try +/- .oo6 inch, compare that to any other core material.

Sing Core has insulation for enjoying warmth in Winter and cool Summers, is sound deadening for peace and quiet, and more dimensionally stable than other type of core such as foam core, honeycomb core, wood-based core.

You may not see everything we do because it is hidden deep inside the door or panel, but it’s there and many people can sleep soundly at night knowing that we have done all the hard work in advance, so that you don’t have to worry about endless maintenance calls.

I am so proud of my invention, that I put my name on it: Sing Core

~ Peter Sing

What makes a hot-pressed panel worth so much more with Sing Core inside?

Architects are increasingly specifying their large high-end hot pressed veneer panelized walls, features, and doors have Sing Core inside (accounting for about one-third of all our products which are sent to the greater New York-area). The contractors generally contact Sing Core directly first, due to being specified. Though Sing Core does not actually do the veneering. Sing Core provides the high precision substrate that is shipped 3,000 miles from the manufacturing location in Washington State, to the high end millwork in New York (or wherever the nearest hot press specialist is near the construction site) to do the veneering there.

You will find Sing Core inside high-end hot pressed veneered ceilings, walls, floor, and doors in the most demanding architectural designs and projects.

Why?

Why must architects and designers go through such an unusual process to meet the needs of these high production and precision projects? According to those who are specifying and using Sing Core in their projects,

“There’s just no other way to do it.”

Large Size Concept Consideration

In an age when the biggest projects often include large spanning surface areas wrapped in beautiful wood veneer, the large scope of such a project is problematic. You are dealing with immense spans of material which is difficult to maintain straight and true, because at that size, most material will begin to move with changes in temperature, humidity, or other environmental variations. Sing Core is the only known method of keeping these spans straight and true. That is why the biggest door companies use Sing Core inside their doors that are over 9 ft. tall, because it doesn’t take much movement in a large door to render it inoperable. Then you do not have a door, you have an obstacle, or a bowed wall that needs to be dealt with. This leads to Sing Core’s primary function in these huge projects,

Warp-Free Hot Pressed Veneer

Particularly in high-end designs featuring the beauty of hot pressed veneer, the last thing you want is your project to express variances or changes. The desire is to have a completely flat surface that can span great length without warping. This is what Sing Core provides. It is the reason large doors (even extremely large doors) are guaranteed not to warp, bend, twist, or otherwise fail for 50 years, because they have Sing Core inside.

Highest Precision

High precision is a sought-after attribute of some of the most demanding clients, and Sing Core’s high precision (+/- .006 tolerance) gives them the high end performance that your clients are willing to pay extra for.

Lightweight Veneer Panels

Hot pressed veneer panels with Sing Core inside weigh less, not much more than a hollow core panel, but feature a fully insulated warp-free solid hybrid core that is 100% surface-area bondable.

100% Surface Bondable

That means, no weak spots like you might see in honeycomb-type cores, which offer only 10% or less surface bonding area. This full-bonded surface area inside the panel eliminates delamination over time.

Fully Insulated Veneer Panels

The insulation value is important in high-end hot pressed veneer applications for both climate control and sound deadening capabilities within expansive structure designs.

Less Expensive to Deploy and Install

Keeping these hot pressed veneer panels lightweight translates to less expensive shipping, handling, and hardware. They are easier to and less expensive to transport, manage and install on site with fewer risk of injuries, even if the panel is exceptionally large.

50-Year Guarantee

The non-warping hybrid core allows large door companies to build large doors that can be guaranteed not to warp, bend, twist, or otherwise fail, including delamination.

We Do Not Veneer

We always recommend using your local veneering professionals for custom veneer doors. We do not provide veneer or install it. It is our policy to subcontract veneering jobs to the best veneering professionals in the USA.

If you offer hot-pressed veneer services or cold-press veneering to your clientele, your highest paying customers will gladly pay you more if your panels have Sing Core inside.

Sing Core has the best and most efficient machines and technologies to provide the fastest delivery of the highest quality door panels in large quantities for our customers to build high end wood veneer doors, wood stave doors, even the strongest, lightweight, impact resistant, warp-free stile and rail door can start with Sing door substrate, then adding door trim molding to create this new generation of highly advanced door. Stronger, lightweight, warp-free, insulated, sound deadening doors in quantity at a much lower cost than your high-end conventional stile and rail door. Get a price quote, we will help you to improve your productivity without having to hire large production crews to meet your deadline. This is a much better solution as an alternative to conventional stile and rail door.

“We are here to support you.”

Our main business is building very large door substrates that are guaranteed to meet or exceed AWI standards.

You know everything. You know what you can do and you know where trouble is lurking. You don’t want your customers coming back to you, complaining about their door that has warped.

You’re careful to exclude certain items, such as those largest of doors on your door schedule. You’ve been in the business to know that you are competent and courageous enough to build a magnificent big door, but you also know that problems are just around the corner.

You also know you have nothing to worry about if you take advantage of the

50-year Sing Core Warp-free Solution

Our relationship with our millworks is a tight bond, where we both work with and trust each other. We do our part: to provide you with the best, most efficiently engineered warp-free substrate, with the skin of your choice or not. You decide how much work you want to do on the door in your shop. And you: Make our product look so beautiful.

Neither of us could do this kind of work without the other. This is a symbiotic relationship that we only share with the biggest and best millworks in the world with honor and integrity every day.

We make the best team ever, and you can now offer your clients the best in large doors of any kind with the best guaranteed results in the world.

How to get a price quote:

It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3: Length, Width and Thickness of the door substrate. In one click you can see a shop drawing of the Sing Panel that you are looking to purchase.

Sing Core supplies valuable components to the construction process. Patented Sing panels, posts and beams are integrated into projects where the characteristics of lightweight, high strength, insulation and alternative Eco-friendly manufacturing options are either sought after or used in solving the problems associated with large scale projects.

The process works something, like this:

The Architect specifies, “SingCore” inside the products, let’s say, a large pivot door
The General Contractor seeks out a qualified Millwork who obtains unfinished pivot door from Sing Core
Sing Core manufactures the pivot door blank to architectural specs and ships to millwork
Millwork finishes and installs hardware and provides finished pivot door to the job site
Installers hang and or install the pivot door

What we do the best…the best in the world:

We provide the best substrate for the millwork and door industries to build the best door in the world. The core makes all the difference. If you use LVL core, wood stave core, particle board core, aluminum core, or paper core you should try Sing Core. Millworks know LVL and wood stave is too heavy and warps, aluminum honeycomb core has no precision once the core is stretched, paper core is similar and offers very little support and no sheer strength.

We supply our Sing Core door substrate to the largest door manufacturers to replace their door cores as mentioned previously. One of our largest customers said,

“Since we switched to Sing Core, we never have any warping issue, which was the biggest problem for recalls no matter how hard we tried to make our LVL cores work.”

1. For a highly smooth paint grade surface, such as lacquer finish. 1 with MDF skin, 2 with AB plywood as surface skin. They have one thing in common; no matter which skin you select, as long as it is artisan grade, it will be guaranteed for the flatness, lightweight, and high strength, which is the highest standard in the industry.

2. Veneer-ready artisan grade Sing substrate panels for doors or high end millwork.

3. Wood stave-ready. By adding 1/8-inch to 3/8-inch hardwood to create a panel which looks and performs better than any solid wood or any other type of door core, guaranteed.

4. Metal door. Almost any metal, or non-metal skin can be use as Sing door finish material. It functions and looks better than any other method, such as welding, or use other type of frame technology. Sing metal panels are stronger pound for pound than any solid material, lighter in weight, and with the highest precision which means longer life span of the products.

5. Increase your productivity by using Sing door panels to replace stile and rail doors.

If you have a job with 10 different sizes and more than 40 doors which could easily jam up your production for days, if not for weeks, contact Sing Core. We could do it in less than 2 or 3 days and ship to you to add veneer, or add trim to make it look like stile and rail doors. Even the professional door maker could not tell the difference, but we guarantee your new type of veneer or stile and rail door will be stronger, lighter, and true flat. No other stile and rail door could perform like Sing Core. This is the reason Sing Core works with the most succesful high-end door manufacturers across the USA.

Get Things Done Right the First Time

Millworks and door manufactures are rightfully wary about building and installing large or oversize wooden doors using traditional techniques. That’s why the top millworks in the country choose SingCore for challenging projects where they need to get things right the first time.

Guaranteed Warp-free for 50 Years

Here at SingCore we set the bar exceptionally high with a lengthy full structural guarantee that exceeds any other offered in the industry. This covers not only standard size door panels but oversize door panels exceeding 30′ in length.

Renowned for non-warping large doors, inventor Peter Sing’s patented and patent-pending building materials can do so much more. Patented SingCore is suitable for use in unsupported spans of almost any length with proper design support from our “True Flat” estimating team.

Strength of Sing Panel

Peter Sing’s miraculous material just boggles the mind, and is something that you have to get in your hands, or under your feet, to truly understand. Just look at this 13′ span, easily supporting the weight of a man without deflection at only 1″ thick. By including Sing Core in your next project, you may for the first time have complete confidence that your oversize door installation will stand the test of time, with no complaints from your clients.

The SingCore factory, located in the pristine forests of the Pacific Northwest, also builds posts and beams for use in other types of construction applications. They are just as lightweight and strong, if not stronger, than SingCore doors. Our specialty is devising a way to make your next project in to a success, no mater what it takes

Lightweight of Sing Panel

How Strong is Sing’s Core?

Independently tested, Sing’s core is 660 PSI, many times stronger when compared to any other lightweight honeycomb-type building material which usually clocks in at between 10 and 110 PSI.

That’s why you will find Sing Core inside impact doors. Sing says, “If you kick other doors, they will crash,

“Kick my door and you will break your leg.”

While lightweight and fully insulated, Sing Core is stronger that steel pound for pound.

Finish to Match Any Style

SingCore offers a huge variety of skin materials, that allows you to achieve any design goal or match any existing element to perfection. Our specialty is in door panels, no necessarily door finishing, which is why we prefer to work with millworks on expensive projects. And, we often refer our clients to local millworks when possible.

: \

Surface lamination types include:

Veneer, any species
Wood stave, any species
Metal – cold rolled steel, hot rolled steel, aluminum, copper, other
HPL composites – Formica and Wilson Art
Specialty such as white board, black board, magnetic marker board
Veneer yourself (hot press ready)
Paint grade panels

Every lamination is eligible to receive Peter Sing’s iron clad 50 year guarantee.

If you offer hot-pressed veneer services or cold-press veneering to your clientele, your highest paying customers will gladly pay you more if your panels have Sing Core inside.

Hot-pressers Are More Successful and Profitable with Sing Core.

If you are a veneering professional, then we would like to work with you! Please contact us, we have plenty of veneering jobs to subcontract out.

For standard sized doors, we send our premium substrate to veneering professionals near the job site to be hot-pressed. If the doors are very large, we may have the veneering professionals prepare the veneer for us to cold-press in our facility.

For years, Sing Core has been providing high-end local and nationwide hot press veneer professionals with premium core material that eliminates the need for crossbanding.

Window Openings, French Doors, Man Doors, and Exotic Styles

Our perfectly straight true flat material is capable of fitting in to any form of door. Door openings are flexible and fully custom. Need a curved door? We can make you a custom curved door. Man doors? French Door? Other?

Any Size

Due to the incredible light weight of Sing Core and super strong resilience, the largest doors in the tallest buildings in the United States are built with Sing Core inside.

Perfect edges ready for the top floor of the World Trade Center

The last thing you want on the top floor of the World Trade Center, is a warped door, and that’s why you’ll find Sing Core inside those doors.

You could find Sing Core from beneath the depths of the sea (US Navy) to outer space (NASA) and everywhere in between.

Low VOA and Warp Free

Our friends at Crestmark Architectural Millwork found SingCore to be particularly useful in large cabinet doors for the Museum of Modern Art. Our warp free oversize panels combined perfectly with the museums need for low VOA materials for archival room use.

100-YEAR FURNITURE

SingCore has been used by the Seattle AIA for their flat back style office furniture. Unlike overseas competitors, who focus on quantity of quality, or furniture panels are designed and built to last a century or more. This makes sing core the go to companion for high end yet functional furniture installations. Coming it at 1/3rd the weight of all wood panels, SingCore is extremely popular in the modular or moveable furniture space.

A variety of travel industries are benefited by using Sing’s technologies, including, but not limited to hospitality, aircraft, aerospace, marine, rail, trucks, trailers, and RVs.

Most Sustainability of Any Other Building Material

Peter Sing’s gift to the world is this highly sustainable product which can virtually last forever with little or no deterioration, and can be repurposed on the fly, making it possibly the most sustainable building material in the world.

Can you afford to go without SingCore on your next project?

Millworks

Looking for a millwork to finish your SingCore project?
Find an AWI Millwork Near You

Our primary affiliation is with the millworks that are highly skilled and qualified to deliver an end product which exemplifies the highest and best use of our patented SingCore building materials. In fact, when we receive inquiries about our products, our first question is, “Who is your millwork company?” If they do not have one they are working with, we suggest they get one and have them contact us directly.

SingCore is an extraordinary building material that left to itself is not much more glamorous than any other engineered plywood, even though nothing can compare to SingCore’s unparalleled light weight and strength. Yet, in the hands of a skilled millwork, their specialized craftsmanship is what makes Eco-friendly SingCore shine with the beauty and elegance SingCore products are known for.

Millworks face many challenges when bringing the architect’s vision to life. In some cases, the limitation of available building material can render a potential job impractical or even impossible.

Problem

For instance, a particular project might include a large wooden door. If the large wood door is an exterior door over seven feet tall or over four feet wide (as is the case for most modern pivot entry doors) millworks and custom door manufacturers will simply pass on the large door portion of the job, forfeit the entire job altogether based on the oversized exterior door, or if they do take the job may agree to build the large door according to the architectural specifications but will not offer a warranty on the performance of the big door.

Large exterior doors, especially large wood doors, are a problem because millworks and door manufacturers know the doors will fail due to warping. It’s nothing personal; it’s just the nature of the beast being the wood grain itself which tends to move according to changes in temperature, moisture or other environmental conditions.

Solution

Patented SingCore when engineered by the warp-free team can prevent any large door from failing over time. Millworks are confident they can provide a solution for any project including large doors of any size if they have SingCore inside, guaranteed.

Clients may ask for a warranty on the large doors (that without SingCore inside could not be warranted) and the millwork can now offer the professional SingCore guarantee – in writing – that the doors with professional SingCore inside are guaranteed not to warp, bend, twist or otherwise fail for 50 years.
