General information about plywood

We manufacture plywood from birch, alder, beech, pine, spruce and gaboon (okoume).  Usually plywood panel is made from different wood species e.g.: pine/alder, birch/pine, etc. The kind of wood used for outer plies determines the type of plywood i.e. hardwood plywood or softwood plywood. Inner plies might be of different kinds of wood.

*  plywood panels are not water resistant, same as wood of which they are made of. It is allowed to use plywood in exterior conditions only when all the surfaces of the panel are reated with special water resistant and of proven quality paint or lacquer. We recommend plywood panels to be used without direct contact with soil, ground or water.

Using glue for plywood manufacture does not cause it to cease being a natural product. The use of modern high quality resins results in plywood fulfilling requirements of hygienic class E1 (class A of formaldehyde emission according to EN 1084) or standard formaldehyde emission acc. to CARB phase 1 or 2.
