After the hurricane there was a severe regional shortage of plywood, especially exterior plywood.

A specific grade or type of this construction material

We stock exterior plywoods, interior plywoods, and furniture plywoods.

Board produced by gluing several layers of veneer on top of each other; used to make furniture, transport carriages and concrete shuttering
form of laminated wood with the grain of the alternate layers set at right angles
A panel (normally 4' X 8') of wood made of three or more layers of veneer, compressed and joined with glue, and usually laid with the grain of adjoining plies at right angles to give the sheet strength
{i} board made from compressed wood chips; laminated wood
A wooden panel that is made up of several thin sheets of wood bonded together
Any sheet of wood made of 3 or more thin layers of wood that has been bonded together with glue
A type of construction material supplied in sheets, and made of layered wood, several layers being glued on top of each other
– an assembled product made of layers of veneer held together by an adhesive, the chief characteristic of which is the alternate cross layers, distributing the longitudinal wood strength It consists of three or more layers of veneer, firmly glued together with the grain direction of the middle layer at right angles to that of the two parallel outer layers
A piece of wood made of three or more layers of veneer joined with glue, and usually laid with the grain of adjoining plies at right angles Almost always an odd number of plies are used to provide balanced construction
A building material made of thin layers of wood or veneer glued together, each succeeding layer laid with the grain perpendicular to the grain of the ply beneath it
an assembled product made of layers of veneer held together by an adhesive, the chief characteristic of which is the alternate cross layers, distributing the longitudinal wood strength It consists of three or more layers of veneer, firmly glued together with the grain direction of the middle layer at right angles to that of the two parallel outer layers (Forest Management Bureau)
A sheet material made by gluing thin layers of wood together with the grain direction of each layer running at right angles to the next one
Wood sheeting consisting of three or more layers of veneer joined with glue The alternate layers, or "plies," usually are arranged with grain running at right angles for added strength
A glued wood panel made up of thin layers of veneer with the grain of adjacent layers at right angles, or of veneer in combination with a core of lumber or of reconstituted wood
A piece of wood made of three or more layers of wood veneer laminated together with glue
Layers of wood veneer bonded by adhesive, forming a panel
a laminate made of thin layers of wood
Layers of wood attached in a cross grain method to assist in preventing the contraction and swelling of wood surfaces from humidity changes in the air
A wooden "layered" core material that is extremely sound in structural integrity and consistent surface smoothness to allow the application of laminated materials The Designer cabinetry line from Dura Supreme uses this material for the cabinetry end panels, tops, bottoms and backs of every cabinet Wood veneer materials are frequently applied to this material
A fabricated wood product usually laid with the grain of adjoining layers at right angles It is constructed of three or more layers of veneer joined with glue
A piece of wood made of three or more layers of veneer wood bonded with glue For strength, the middle layer is usually placed so the grain runs perpendicular to the layers above and below it
A material composed of thin sheets of wood glued together, with grains of adjacent sheets oriented at right angles to each other
Pieces of wood made of three or more layers of veneer joined with glue, and usually laid with the grain of adjoining plies at right angles Almost always an odd number of plies are used to provide balanced construction
A common type of wood product sold in 4' x 8' sheets Plywood is made of a number of thin sheets of wood laminated together with the grain of the adjacent layers perpendicular, except for the two outside plies, which are parallel to provide stability
Plywood is wood that consists of thin layers of wood stuck together. a sheet of plywood. a material made of several thin layers of wood that are stuck together to form a strong board. Manufactured panel made up of three or more thin plies (layers) of wood. Each ply is laid down with its grain running perpendicular to the one before it. Like other glued-wood products, plywood provides a strong, inexpensive alternative to solid wood. It is widely used both in cabinetmaking (for chests, dressers, wardrobes, and tables) and in house construction (for walls, ceilings, subfloors, doors, and in forms for casting concrete)
A panel made up of thin sheets of veneer which the grain direction is at right angles to each other
A wood panel composed of an odd number of layers of wood veneer bonded together under pressure
Wood made up of three or more layers of veneer bonded with glue
plywood saw
A saw for cutting plywood that has a fine-toothed blade to minimize tearing of the outer plies of a sheet of plywood. An extra set of teeth on the curved upper edge of the blade allows starting of a cut on the inside of a panel (away from the edge) without having to drill a starting hole. The standard plywood saw blade is 11 inches long and has 14 tpi (teeth per inch)
