Lipping is similar to edge banding, but much thicker. It can be glued or nailed straight on the edges you want to hide/reinforce, but may also be fitted into a slot for extra strength.
Lipping can be trimmed to the same thickness as the main board, but it may also voluntarily form a "lip" e.g. to keep things from sliding off a shelf.
The material can be bought or cut from suitable pieces of wood with the table saw.
