Marine Plywood

What is it used for

Residential
Marine plywood is often used in residential settings for areas exposed to moisture, such as bathroom subfloors and kitchen cabinetry. Its resistance to water and humidity ensures durability and longevity, making it ideal for environments prone to dampness.

Commercial
In commercial applications, marine plywood is commonly employed for exterior signage, cladding, and shop fittings. Its high strength and water-resistant properties make it suitable for use in areas that require robust and reliable materials, ensuring the structures withstand various weather conditions.

Industrial
Marine plywood is essential in industrial environments for constructing boat parts, docks, and other structures exposed to water. Its superior water-resistant adhesive and durable veneer layers make it perfect for heavy-duty applications, ensuring structural integrity and resistance to water damage over time.

What it’s Made From

Hardwood Veneers

Layers of high-quality hardwood veneers, usually from durable species like teak, are used to form the core and outer layers, providing strength and durability.

Phenolic Resin

A waterproof resin used to bond the layers of veneer together, ensuring resistance to moisture and marine conditions.

Waterproof AdhesivesSpecial adhesives that are resistant to water and weathering, enhancing the plywood’s ability to withstand harsh marine environments.
