Architectural Plywood

European Poplar Plywood is used by the world’s most prestigious manufacturers of furniture due to its high quality, light weight, strength, ease of cutting, flexibility, low formaldehyde emissions and its environmental certification.

In particular, its Forrest Stewardship Council (FSC) and E0 certification have made it very popular and perfect for environmentally responsible developments. A variation of Poplar is the Poplar Oriented Strand Board (OSB). This product is formed by layering strands of Poplar veneer at various angles and offers excellent workability.

Hoop Pine is a native Australian species, which is manufactured from sustainable and renewable log plantations in South East Queensland. Hoop Pine is known for its remarkable surface finishing capacity, which makes it an excellent substrate for high quality exterior paint, stains and sealants.

While Hoop Pine is perfect for laser cutting, it also sees use for non-structural, interior applications such as furniture, interior door skins, ceiling linings, acoustic panels and interior walls where a high quality aesthetic finish is required.

Birch Plywood is manufactured to European standard EN635-2 with a Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification, which means it meets all ten principals from the FSC, including reduction of environmental impact and appropriate monitoring and assessment activities to maintain the condition of forests. 

Our Birch Premium Plywood variety is the highest quality grade available for Birch Ply. The Birch face is graded as an A Face, which gives the product an incredible clean look with a distinct face that can be clear finished or stained. The B face may have several oval or butterfly shaped veneer patches, which replace any knotholes. 

Birch Ply sheets are recognisable by their warm, light coloured appearance and grain detail. These aesthetic qualities combined with the high structural integrity means our Birch Premium Ply is perfect for both interior and exterior applications.
