What is plywood?
Plywood is an engineered wood panel material made from several thin layers of wood veneer that are glued together with each layer rotating the wood grain by up to 90 degrees. This cross-graining of the wood layers gives plywood board several advantages – namely consistent strength across the panel and a reduction in the wood’s tendency to split, shrink or expand.
Typically, a plywood sheet is comprised of an odd number of layers to give it balance. Depending on the quality and cost of the plywood, the wood grain can either be rotated in consistent 90-degree blocks or, in stronger plywood builds, 45-degree increments.
What are plywood sheets used for?
The simplicity, effectiveness and versatility of plywood sees it in regular use across a wide range of industries including building and construction, furniture manufacturing, interior design and the automotive sector, among numerous others.
The high stress and exposure properties of plywood mean that it’s commonly found in structural applications such as partitions and external walls, formwork and beams. Its strength and durability characteristics also make it ideal for a variety of non-structural works including floors and boxing.
