Description

Plywood is a versatile and durable engineered wood product made by gluing together thin layers, or “plies,” of wood veneer. These layers are arranged with their grain patterns alternating, which enhances the strength and stability of the material. With a thickness of 15 mm and a standard size of 8 x 4 feet, plywood is commonly used in furniture making, cabinetry, flooring, and construction. Its lightweight nature, combined with its robust structure, makes it easy to handle while offering significant load-bearing capacity. The smooth surface of plywood can be easily finished or painted, making it suitable for a variety of applications. Depending on the grade and type of wood used, plywood can offer varying levels of moisture resistance, with marine-grade plywood being highly resistant to water. Plywood is also a cost-effective, sustainable option, as it utilizes layers of wood that might otherwise be discarded, contributing to its eco-friendly reputation.
