Structure

Film faced plywood is structural plywood coated with a phenolic or melamine resin film on one or both sides.

Surface: Phenolic film (brown/black) or melamine (light).

Core: Multi-layered hardwood veneers with waterproof WBP glue.

Thickness: 12mm, 15mm, 18mm, 21mm (common for formwork).

Key Features

100% Poplar Core and Face Veneer
Built from uniform poplar veneers that ensure strong bonding, high dimensional stability, and reduced risk of delamination during construction use.

Lightweight yet Structurally Reliable
Poplar plywood is significantly lighter than hardwood or birch plywood, making it easier to lift, cut, and install on-site - reducing labor intensity and improving efficiency.

Excellent Surface for Formwork and Finishing
The smooth surface provides clean concrete finishes and can be laminated or coated with phenolic film for extended reusability in shuttering applications.

Moisture-Resistant Glue System
Available with MR or WBP (Weather & Boil Proof) adhesives to ensure durability and bonding performance under variable humidity and outdoor conditions.

Cost-Effective and Eco-Friendly
Made from fast-growing poplar timber, the board is both environmentally sustainable and competitively priced - offering builders a balance between performance and budget.
