Plywood comprises of multiple layers of thin wood veneer glued together. Layers alternate the wood grain at 90 degrees making the material extremely strong and dimensionally stable. Our POPLAR plywood is a fast grown timber species and is less dense than the commonly available Birch plywood. Poplar is ideal for applications that require thick light weight sheets where stength is not crtitical.
Finishing
For internal use edges can be left unfinished. For external use / internal use where exposed to moisture painting or varnishing is recommended.
Cutting Edges / Cleaning
Cut / Etched parts will have some burn marks from the laser process. These marks can usually be removed using methylated spirits. Alternatively via a light sanding with fine grit paper (approx 200 grit). If required we can apply masking to the plywood before cutting to significantly reduce burn marks.

1-3mm thick material = approx. 0.3mm
4-6mm thick material = approx. 0.3mm
6-9mm thick material = approx. 0.4mm
