Phenolic Plywood Chinese poplar dark brown: wat is dat?

Phenolic Plywood Chinese poplar dark brown is known for being very flat. It consists of poplar plywood that is interior glued, and is finished with a plastic epoxy layer (phenol coating) on the top and bottom. This makes the board suitable for many applications. These top layers are also called a film.

As the name suggests, Phenolic Plywood poplar is composed of poplar veneer layers. Poplar is a soft wood species. As a result, the edges are not nearly as strong as, for example, Phenolic Plywood birch. The veneer layers are interior glued by means of a crosswise joint. The cross-linking of the veneer layers makes the board stronger and prevents warping. However, it remains a wooden core, which is why Phenolic Plywood can warp.

The plastic top layer of this board material has a dark brown to black colour. A universal colour purely for constructional purposes. The board is suitable for intensive use. The top layer of Phenolic Plywood needs no finishing, so you can get straight to work!
