Marine/Construction Plywood
Plywood is widely used as a building material because it has many useful properties. It can be economically produced with precise dimensions in a factory. This sheet of wood does not warp or crack with climate changes or changes in atmospheric moisture.
The base material for marine plywood comes from durable face and core veneers with little to no defects. Therefore, it performs well in wet and humid conditions for longer periods without any delamination or fungal attacks.
The wood veneer is from tropical hardwoods, with negligible core gap, thereby limiting the chance of trapping moisture. Therefore, the glue bond remains strong and stable. We use the best in-class exterior Water and Boil Proof (WBP) glue for best results.
Plywood has many uses in the construction industry. Some of the most common uses are:
- Formwork for moulding wet concrete
- Part of flooring
- Shutters for concreting
Commercial Plywood
Commercial Plywood is an engineered product made from three or more thin sheets of wood also known as ‘plies’. These are glued to form a thicker, flat sheet called plywood. The logs required to make plywood are first prepared by steaming or dipping them in hot water. The logs are fed into a lathe machine, which helps to peel the logs into thin plies of wood. Each plywood sheet is between 1 and 4mm thickness.
Uses of Commercial Plywood in the building industry:
- For partition walls
- For furniture such as kitchen cabinets cupboards, and office tables
- For making shutters and light doors
