Carbon Black in the B-16-BE configuration is a deep saturated near-black panel from Europly's premium plywood line. The "B-16-BE" code indicates: B-grade face, 16mm thickness, BE (beveled) edge profile. Built for cabinet doors, drawer fronts, and architectural millwork where the chamfered edge adds visual character.
The Beveled Edge Detail
The BE beveled edge profile finishes the panel with a chamfered angled edge that catches light along the bevel line. The result is a panel that reads more architectural and dimensional than standard square-edge alternatives, with subtle visual rhythm at the panel perimeter that suits formal cabinet applications and design-led millwork.

Best Application
Modern transitional kitchens with refined dimensional detail, contemporary commercial interiors where the beveled edge reads as designed character, and architectural millwork projects where the panel face plays a substantial visual role. Carbon Black B-16-BE works especially well in larger kitchens with multiple cabinet runs where the bevel detail catches light consistently across the design.
Pairing Direction
Brushed brass, aged brass, and unlacquered brass hardware register beautifully against the deep dark base. The brass warmth contrasts the cool depth in a way that reads designed. Polished chrome and matte black both work as lower-contrast alternatives. For counters, white-veined quartz, soft Calacatta look-alikes, and warm cream marble all pair cleanly.
Fabrication Notes
The 16mm thickness with B-grade face suits standard cabinet door applications. The beveled edge requires precise miter cuts at corner joints, which is part of why this profile reads as substantial designed quality.
