Cladding Plywood
Plywood used for exterior wall cladding is specially manufactured to suit this application. The plywood is treated to Hazard level H3 for protection against fungal decay and insect attack.
Sonapanel®
Sonapanel is designed to produce interesting effects and answers any need for the elimination of sound reflection. This is the reason why this acoustic panel is popular for home theatre setups and music rooms. Acoustic plywood offers a Fire Retardancy Certificate, termite resistance and above all, a really effective acoustic solution.

Endurapanel
Endurapanel is a unique paneling system, predominantly used for ceilings.
It can be easily installed by a single person. Endurapanel has the appearance of a traditional slat wall or ceiling but with significantly easier installation. Applications include balcony ceilings, alfresco ceilings, internal feature walls & ceilings, restaurant ceilings.
Shadowclad
Shadowclad is a high quality wall cladding known for its versatility and durability. It is manufactured from sustainably-grown radiata pine from New Zealand.
While used primarily as lightweight exterior cladding, Shadowclad also makes ideal lining for interior walls and ceilings. This plywood is available in Grooved or Textured profiles and Natural or Ultra finishes.
Bamboo Plywood
Bamboo plywood provides an excellent alternative to traditional plywood. Made from high quality Moso bamboo fibres, this type of plywood offers comparable strength and durability to hardwood sheets.

Veneer Quality S
Veneer quality S defines an appearance grade veneer which permits natural characteristics as a decorative feature, subject to agreement. The type and frequency of the natural characteristics that are acceptable is to be based on a written specification, acceptable to both the manufacturer and the purchaser.
Veneer Quality B
Veneer quality B is an appearance grade veneer with limited permitted amounts of sound inter-grown knots and filled splits and holes. Plywood with a quality B face is suitable for high quality paint finishing.
Veneer Quality C
Veneer quality C is defined as a non-appearance grade with a solid surface. All open defects such as holes or splits are filled. Plywood with a quality C face is intended specifically for applications requiring a solid non decorative surface such as in plywood flooring which is to be covered with carpet or other flooring overlays.
Veneer Quality D
Veneer quality D is defined as a non-appearance grade with permitted open imperfections. Unfilled holes up to 75 mm wide are permitted in Veneer Quality D. Plywood manufactured with a quality D face has the lowest appearance grade of structural plywood under the standard. It is designed specifically for applications where decorative appearance is not a requirement and structural performance is the prime consideration. Structural plywood bracing is one such application.
