Take your construction and DIY projects to a whole new level with our Chinese Hardwood Face Poplar Core External Grade Plywood B/BB CE2+ 2440mm x 1220mm x 18mm. Originating from China, this B/BB grade plywood is not just another piece of wood. It's a game-changer, particularly when used as 18mm plywood flooring.

Weighing in at a robust 32kg, this plywood stands the test of time, providing stability and reliability for both interior and exterior applications. However, for exterior usage, it needs to be treated to withstand all types of weather.

The poplar core offers the perfect balance between lightness and strength, enhancing its durability. It can seamlessly fit into your decor due to its paintable veneer finish that's smoothly sanded, leaving a clean and appealing surface. With an E1 formaldehyde level, this plywood keeps your environment healthier by maintaining a low emission rate.

Suitable for various applications, from walls and roofs to floors, this plywood is particularly well-adapted as 18mm tongue and groove plywood. Its square edging allows for easy and tight fitting, perfect for those seeking a seamless T&G plywood aesthetic in their flooring projects.

Though it lacks a fire rating, this plywood does adhere to BS EN636 Class 2 and CE2+ product standards, demonstrating its resilience under challenging conditions. Please note, this plywood doesn't carry an FSC certification, meaning it doesn't meet the criteria for being sourced from responsibly managed forests.
