HIGHER GRADES
Grade B/BB
Generally, the best grade available for clear finishing.
Good clean appearance, only minor, natural features,
i.e. small pin knots permitted on the ‘B’ Face.
‘B’ grade is normally only available with ‘BB’ Grade
reverse. (See grading information below for BB).
Grades S/BB & S+/BB
S Face is similar to Grade B, but allows more natural
defects and the odd well-made patch – Generally good
enough quality face for clear finishing or painting.
S+/BB has a better face with no plugs. The reverse is a
standard BB Grade.
Grade BB
The main commercial or utility grade – both faces are
Grade BB – which allows patches and other knots/
imperfections. Suitable for all general work including
CNC Machining or where face grade not overly
important – However good quality BB grade boards
may be acceptable for clear finishing and furniture!
Available in Long or Cross grain construction.
LOWER GRADES – (Cores are still solid)
Grade BB/CP and BB/WG
Grade BB face with WG or CP reverse. Standard
commercial grades which are essentially only sound
(Good) one side – Reverse side can have numerous
large knots, open splits/defects and discolouration.
Grade CP
Russian Grade – In between BB and WG used where
face appearance not important, i.e. packing crates,
furniture carcasses.
Grade C
Similar appearance and use as Grade WG – may be
un-sanded with open defects and discolouration.
Grade WG
Large knots / patches / open defects, staining and
discolouration permitted – used for packing crates
and carcass work or where unseen, such as
upholstered furniture.
Birch Plywood Grades – ‘commercial availability’
A ‘Batman’ shaped plug or patch – often found on BB Grade
Plywood and lower. These patches are generally well made and
give a sound/solid face.
TimberIreland Birch Plywood is widely used for CNC Machining
as the core is solid all the way through.

How to specify Birch Plywood. Relevant Standards and Grades.
BS EN 635-2: 1995 Plywood – Classification by Surface Appearance. Part 2. Hardwood
Note: – within BS EN 635-2: 1995 Plywood, five grades are classified, E, I, II, III and IV – for ALL hardwood species.
However, European Birch plywood is generally graded according to a country’s own National Grading Rules – so only
approximate comparisons can be made with BS EN 635-2: 1995 Plywood, as the grades from the countries below
tend to be more stringent.
Therefore, for practical purposes it is often easier to specify by Grade Letter, i.e. Grade B/BB or by the grade and
country of origin, i.e. Finnish Birch Plywood, Grade S/BB or Latvian Birch Plywood, Grade BB – depending on end
use requirement. The Grades refer to the faces, as the core of Timber Ireland Birch Plywood is always sound
and solid (only very small minor core gaps may be present).
The bond type must also be specified, i.e. BS EN 314-2: 1993 Plywood. Bonding quality. Class 1, 2 or 3, depending
on hazard class and applications.
