Phenolic plywood hardwood: what is it?

Phenolic plywood consists of plywood with a special plastic epoxy layer (phenolic coating) on the top and bottom. Also called a film. This is a smooth and waterproof layer that allows the sheet to be used for applications that require tougher materials. The core of phenolic plywood hardwood consists of tropical hardwood veneer layers. A sustainable production method. During the production of phenolic plywood hardwood, various tropical hardwood types are externally bonded. This means that the wood is also moisture resistant and the sheet has good resistance to moisture. Because various types of wood are used, not all layers have the same colour. Tropical hardwood is generally less smooth and also less stable than birch. Order phenolic plywood hardwood for structural purposes only. In addition to the core, the colour of the top layer may also vary per sheet.

In short: phenolic plywood hardwood is a real powerhouse and generally the most budget-friendly phenolic plywood variant. The sheet is suitable for intensive use in humid areas. Phenolic plywood hardwood is also known under the names concrete plywood, hardwood phenolic plywood, construction sheet.

Available thicknesses of phenolic plywood hardwood

Machining phenolic plywood hardwood sheets

It is important to countersink the edges and (screw) holes of phenolic plywood (at least 2 mm) and to finish well with epoxy filler and an edge sealer. Do not over tighten lock bolts. The top layer requires no further post-treatment. Phenolic plywood can splinter during assembly. Use sharp tools and preferably screw at least 2.0 cm from the edges. When these sheets are used outdoors, it is important to treat the sheet edges with an edge sealer to protect the moisture-resistant properties.

The melamine top layer does not need to be finished. Or take a look at our other types of concreteplex:
