Before the purchase order
Common options include C/D for utility and concealed work, BB/CC for selected furniture substrates, and B/BB or a custom selected grade for visible interiors. Each quotation states the grading convention, permitted knots and repairs, colour range, sanding, exposed-edge appearance, all-poplar construction and reference sample.
The available constructions target approximately 400–580 kg/m³. Actual sheet weight follows density, size, thickness and moisture; an 18 mm reference sample can be weighed for component, handling and payload planning.
Poplar plywood provides a lighter construction for furniture, interiors and long components. Hardwood plywood generally provides a denser option for demanding edges and fasteners; the final choice follows the component, joint, finish and weight target.
Yes, 1220×3800 mm is available as a made-to-order long-format option. The quotation confirms lay-up, thickness, flatness, full-length support, packing, loading quantity and destination handling.
Both sizes can be produced to order after the construction, press capability, flatness, support geometry, panel weight, packing and container arrangement are confirmed.
Yes. A substrate and finish trial can confirm moisture, sanding, repairs, surface telegraphing, adhesive or primer compatibility and the required appearance.
Continuous level support is maintained during inspection, storage, packing, transport and unloading. Aligned bearers, suitable spacing, protected edges and full-length support reduce local sag and handling damage.
Structural applications use a construction with declared structural properties, the required bond and applicable test documents. General furniture and interior poplar plywood is selected for supported component use.
Send the face/back grade, all-poplar construction, density or sheet-weight target, moisture, bond, exact size and thickness, tolerances, machining, finish, long-panel support, quantity, packing, destination and required documents.
