What is Large Plywood?

Large plywood sheets are made of three to nine layers of thin wood veneer sheets, which are bonded together. Each veneer has a grain perpendicular to the veneer beneath it (or tighter angles of 45 degrees in some plywood). By doing this, a product with outstanding dimensional stability, resistance to splitting, and resistance to warping are produced. Wood species used are red oak, birch, walnut, maple and many more).

The typical 3050mm hardwood log produces a large amount of B- and C-grade material.

Large Plywood Classification:

Our large plywood sheets come as Class 2 plywood which is suitable for use in humid interior or covered exterior applications offering limited resistance to moisture during the construction.

Large Plywood Analysis/Grading:

B and BB grades Minor flaws may be seen in the B grade plywood, which is smooth, flat, and elegant in appearance. BB grade often refers to the reverse of the item, which is slightly less attractive and has a few additional flaws.

The C and CC grades Grade C plywood is utilised when the material’s strength is required. There are surface flaws like open knots and fractures. Such grading cannot be used in applications where the material’s appearance and look are important. Plywood of the CC Grade is used when just one acceptable face is needed. Normal veneer construction includes CC-grade plywood at the bottom.

Features of Large Plywood Sheets
