Plywood is a sheet construction material manufactured from several thin layers of wood that are tightly glued together in thickness (the so-called veneer). The fibers are generally perpendicular to each other in the adjacent veneer layers, so the specific properties of plywood are shape stability and durability in various directions, which distinguishes it from ordinary wood. The plywood made of birch veneer is the most durable.

Birch plywood may be stored for a fairly long period, but it is important to organise a storage area properly and meet the following conditions...

Waterproof wood panels made of veneer are considered to be the most popular in concrete construction, interior and exterior finishing, decorating. Plywood has moisture resistant properties due to the adhesives based on synthetic resins, which are used to glue the sheets. At the same time film faced plywood is also very popular in the construction industry. This waterproof plywood has improved water-resistant properties and specific scope of application.

Birch plywood is a strong material made of at least three thin layers of birch veneer glued together under high pressure. To guarantee the best performance, the cross- and long-grain plies go one by one at right angles. It can be used for many interior and exterior purposes from interior cladding to formworks, from furniture production to exterior walls sheathing.
