sample_ply_beech_european-e1434573813912

General Characteristics:

European Beech grows in the U.K., Europe, and Western Asia. It contains very little white sapwood with the majority being a pale pinkish heartwood. European Beech is also hard, stiff, and brittle with a straight closed grain. Most European Beech sold in the U.S. is steamed to darken the color of the wood. It is most commonly sold as an Alder substitute due to its similar color.

Birch Plywood, Chinese: White, Natural & Red

Back to top ^

sample_birch_chinese-1-e1434573992961

General Characteristics:

Birch plywood from China often tries to follow domestic face and back grade rules. The core is a Chinese Poplar that is less stable than domestic plywood, although the Chinese are getting better at machine drying the core and holding the tolerances. The face and back veneers of the Birch are usually cut from Russian logs and the panels are available with Rotary Cut Whole Piece Faces and Backs. The core will contain more plies than the typical domestic plywood. These panels are available with Moisture Resistant (MR) glue. Natural Birch panels are being used for painted applications and White Birch panels for stained applications. Most of these products are being used in the construction of residential cabinets, store fixtures, closets, entertainment centers, and other furniture applications.
