CUZI PLY manufactures anti-slip plywood for industrial floors, service platforms, vehicle bodies, staging, walkways and removable access panels. Choose a wire-mesh or hexa-pattern phenolic working face, a smooth or functional reverse, and a poplar, combi, hardwood or birch-led core with exterior bonding and sealed factory edges. Standard 1220×2440 and 1250×2500 mm formats are available in 9–27 mm, with 8–12% moisture for Standard Export and Premium constructions. Quotations state overlay weight, surface pattern, slip-test condition, abrasion endpoint, core density, dimensions, edge treatment, packing and the USD 320–900/m³ export price range.
State pedestrian or equipment contact, footwear, dry or wet use, oil, grease, mud or dust, incline, drainage and cleaning frequency.
Select wire mesh or hexa against a physical pattern sample, then state overlay, colour and a smooth or functional reverse.
Name core, lay-up, bond, thickness, size, factory edge treatment, site cuts or holes and the required resealing method.
Name the exact slip, wear or bond method, surface condition, conditioning, classification or threshold and the party responsible for the document.
State quantity, pack protection, handling, destination, required documents and target date.
A mesh or hex embossing is pressed into resin-impregnated paper over a cross-laminated plywood substrate. Core species, ply count, bond quality, overlay mass, reverse face, edge protection and dimensional control complete the specification and explain why visually similar sheets can differ in weight, machining and service performance.
Use this page to compare patterned panel constructions for fabrication. Film Faced Plywood covers smooth formwork faces, while Structural Plywood covers panels supplied with declared structural properties. Installed supports, fastening, loads, drainage and maintenance are then coordinated with the selected anti-slip panel.
Slip resistance is measured for a particular pattern, method and surface condition. Pattern geometry influences grip, drainage and cleanability, so the order identifies the proposed method, dry or contaminated condition and requested result together with the physical surface sample.
Value-led combi or eucalyptus/poplar construction with a lighter patterned face and smooth reverse for controlled, supported industrial use.
Working baseline with selected hardwood/combi lay-up, heavier patterned phenolic face, smooth reverse, sealed edges and written lot inspection.
Selected hardwood or birch-led multi-ply construction with tight calibration, project pattern, enhanced inspection and documents matched to the installed duty.
Wire-mesh or hexa tread, colour, overlay mass and pattern sample.
Poplar, combi, hardwood or birch-led core with exterior bond.
1220×2440 or 1250×2500 mm, normally 9–27 mm.
8–12% for Standard Export and Premium constructions.
Slip, abrasion and bond methods matched to the stated condition.
USD 320–900/m³ with construction, quantity and packing stated.

Patterns, moisture, testing, installation and pricing
Anti-slip plywood is a cross-laminated plywood panel faced with resin-impregnated paper pressed into a wire-mesh, hexa or project-selected tread pattern. A complete order states the core, lay-up, exterior bond, face and reverse overlays, pattern reference, edge seal, dimensions, moisture and selected slip or abrasion test.
Wire mesh and hexa are distinct working-face geometries, while the reverse face is a separate construction choice. State the pattern sample, overlay system and mass, colour and press texture, then identify the reverse as smooth phenolic or a second functional pattern. The slip method and surface condition complete the performance specification.
Moisture resistance is built through the selected exterior bond, balanced plywood lay-up, resin-impregnated face and reverse overlays, continuous factory edge sealing and compatible resealing of every site cut and drilled hole. Supported joints, drainage, drying and ventilated storage complete the installed moisture-control system.
Select combi, eucalyptus, hardwood or birch-led construction from panel density, machining, fastener holding, edge quality and installed duty. The order states the ply schedule, gap and overlap limits, repairs and the applicable exterior-bond method so we can quote the same construction.
Common options are 9–27 mm in 1220×2440 and 1250×2500 mm formats. Project formats of 1525×3050, 1220×3800 and 2100×2800 mm are quoted after confirming pattern continuity, press capacity, flatness, full-area handling, packing, loading and payload.
Test the selected pattern under a named method and operating condition. State the dry, wet or contaminated surface, direction, incline where applicable, slider or footwear and required classification for EN 16165, AS 4586 or the buyer's project method. The report then identifies the tested surface and condition.
Water, oil, grease, mud and dust change contact and drainage at the tread, so each important service condition is stated separately. Include the expected contaminants, cleaning interval, footwear or wheel contact and required result in the enquiry.
State the wear method, conditioning sequence, cycle count or visual endpoint and the exact overlay-pattern construction. Compare the tested and delivered surface with the selected sample, including pattern loss, film exposure and the point at which the tread no longer meets the agreed visual or slip requirement.
Original edges receive the agreed factory coating. Every site cut, drilled hole or damaged corner exposes the core and must be cleaned, kept dry and resealed with the compatible system before exposure, then inspected under the assigned fabrication responsibility.
The installed-system design states support centres, supported joints, fastener type, edge distance, penetrations and concentrated load cases. The Anti-Slip Flooring, Stages & Platforms application guide connects these values with the selected panel construction and tread surface.
Outdoor service combines the selected exterior bond and sealed edges with drainage, drying, ventilation, UV and temperature inputs. Use compatible cleaners, remove contaminants without damaging the tread, inspect faces, edges and fixings, and state the replacement criteria for the project.
A comparable RFQ confirms the approved pattern and colour sample, face and reverse overlays, core, lay-up, bond, dimensions, tolerances, edge and cut treatment, slip-test methods, wear documents, quantity, packing, destination and target date. Our team can recommend suitable options for any open fields and prepare the quotation against one consistent construction.
