Our 5.5mm Plywood - Chinese Hardwood Faced Poplar Core/Poplar External Grade Plywood B/BB CE4, is a fantastic choice, offering an unbeatable combination of strength, finish, and adaptability.
This plywood is manufactured with meticulous precision, featuring a high-grade B/BB class and meeting BS EN636 Class 2 standards, making it suitable for various applications. Its square-edged and smooth sanded veneer finish allows it to be paintable, providing a touch of creativity and personality to your projects.
Measuring 2440mm x 1220mm, our 5.5mm plywood 8x4 offers a generously wide working surface area suitable for a range of applications. Whether you need materials for wall construction, roof installations, or flooring solutions, this plywood has you covered.
Despite its lightweight at 7.37kg, this plywood is sturdy and durable, ensuring long-lasting reliability for your construction needs. Its poplar core, a wood species renowned for its stability and strength, adds a robust character that guarantees performance. Originating from China, this plywood speaks volumes of durability and functionality.
The panel, engineered to CE4 product standards, can withstand interior and exterior conditions when treated appropriately. It's designed to endure, although it’s classified as non-structural plywood. Moreover, it's important to note that the plywood's E1 (Low) formaldehyde level ensures it's safe to use and minimizes harm to the environment.
While this 5.5mm plywood isn't moisture-resistant, treating it will boost its weather resilience. It also lacks a fire rating, emphasizing that it should be kept away from fire or heat sources.
