Mister Ply & Wood - Choosing The Right Material

The strongest, lightest, most versatile utility and decorative product made from a renewable resource, plywood is kilo for kilo stronger than steel.
Plywood was the first type of engineered wood to be invented. It is made from thin sheets of wood veneer, called plies or veneers.

Structural Plywood is manufactured to AS/NZS 2269 from softwood veneers. It is available in grades based on face and back veneer quality from A to D, with a minimum F8 stress grade. Structural Plywood is a very stable and workable type of plywood, with numerous applications for the building, shop fitting and cabinet making industries.

Exterior Plywood is manufactured to AS/NZS 2271 and intended for use in non-structural, exterior applications where a high quality aesthetic finish is required. Imported exterior plywood may be manufactured to other international standards other than PAA, such as IHPA*or the JPIC grading standards.

Formply is made of a high-density overlay (HDO) of phenolic resin impregnated paper bonded to plywood. Formply is idea for concrete formwork. The overlay helps to protect the hardwood face veneer as well providing a sound surface for the poured concrete. It is manufactured to Australian Standards AS/NZS 2269.

Marine plywood is a premium quality plywood made of selected wood species based on density, bending strength, impact resistance and surface finish characteristics. Manufactured with an A-grade sanded surface face on both sides, as per the AS/NZS 2272 standard, with no core gaps and a permanent waterproof A-bond glue. Marine Plywood is perfect for boat and yacht construction and marine applications.

Tongue and Groove Plywood is strong and durable, with a pre-sanded C-grade face panel available in a range of thicknesses suitable for use in structural and non-structural flooring. It has a machined groove along its edges, with a single plastic tongue to form a tongue and groove joint between sheets.

MDF is a uniform density panel with a fine and smooth surface ideal for shaping and routing. MDF can be easily painted, cut, machined and cleanly drilled without splintering or chipping.

Particleboard is ideal for applications such as wardrobes, wall units, TV cabinets, shelving, toys, cupboards and wall linings. Particleboard is the most commonly used substrate for applying laminates in bench top applications, and provides the most economical option for general indoor building requirements.
