Structural Hardwood Ply
Our Hardwood Structural Plywood is manufactured to AS/NZS 2269 from tropical hardwood veneers, using an “A” bond, WBP glue with veneer quality selections from B to D and a minimum F14 stress grade.
Structural Plywood is very stable and workable and is suitable for all applications, including permanent exposed and structural applications for the building, shop-fitting and cabinet-making industries. The most common grades of structural plywood available are C-D and D-D.
Quality Assured
All structural plywood is branded with the “PAA Tested” stamp. The engineering properties of structural plywood are tabulated in AS/NZS 2269. The tropical hardwood timber species used provide the stress grade to minimum F14 and common in F17.
