Plywood is a highly versatile building material which spans a wide range of applications from wall and floor sheathing to designer interiors and glider fuselages.

There are many types of plywood available, including specialist tropical veneers such as marine plywood which, while having very good weather resistance and strength properties, comply to specific standards such as BS 1088 (plywood in marine use), rather than the structural standard code BS 5268-2:2002.

As this literature is designed for builders, it deals mainly with structural plywood, which can be sourced from Finland, Sweden, America or Canada.

Produced mainly in Finland, Nordic plywood is the predominant supply of quality plywood in the UK, offering a comprehensive range of sizes and types, whether decorative or structural, all complying to the highest standards, all sourced from sustainable forests.

With over 100 years’ production experience, Nordic plywood provides exceptional uniformity as well as quality, making it easy to use in building and construction projects, while constant research and development by the producing mills ensures all specifications meet today’s stringent building requirements.
