Calibrated Plywood

These are designed to make several types of wood products that require an even surface and thickness. By offering calibrated plywood across various woodworking applications, we provide an incredibly useful option. Here’s why our plywood stands out:

• ● Precision: The uniform dimensions, consistent thickness ensures precise cuts in various woodworks where a flat surface is required. In automation systems like CNC machines, the flat surface is mandatory as it delivers evenness and reduces the wastage while giving a platform for making artistic patterns.
• ● Versatility: These have a wide scope of applications, including furniture making, modular interiors, decorative elements, doors, marine structures and coastal interiors and exteriors.
• ● Superior Finish Compatibility: Our calibrated plywood offers superior compatibility for various kinds of finishes. These can be painted, polished, and laminated to make luxurious furniture and decorative works.
• ● Excellent substrate: The evenness and uniformity of these plywood make them an excellent substrate for adhesives to build a modular kitchen cabinet or other furniture.

Applications Of Our Calibrated Plywood

The versatility of our calibrated plywood is quite high. From interiors to marine, these are widely used to make diverse kinds of woodworks and serve the different needs of clients. Here are the key applications:

1. Used in furniture like chairs, sofas, tables, wardrobes and modular kitchen cabinets.
2. The smooth surface is useful in making wall panels, partitions and false ceilings.
3. In BWP grade or marine grade, these are applicable in shipbuilding, decks, piers, and other elements exposed to high moisture.
4. Decorative home interiors, partitions, and designer elements.

How We Ensure Calibration

In the manufacturing process of calibrated plywood, we use hardwood with no core gaps. The timber is washed and dried, then moved into veneer veneer-making process. The veneers are cut using precise cutting tools into consistent dimensions. A layer of moisture-resistant adhesive is applied across both veneer surfaces. These veneers are bonded together with an alternate grain pattern to achieve high strength and stability. The pressing is done at high temperature and pressure.

To achieve calibration of plywood, i.e., to ensure the thickness and surface are uniform throughout the plywood, we employ a special process called four press technology. In this process, the veneers are pre-pressed under controlled pressure. It is then hot pressed for proper flattening at a controlled temperature. Then it is further pressed for optimal bonding. Finally, the plywood is pre-pressed under controlled pressure and then goes for sanding. The hot press here is hydraulic.

The sanding is carried out by a broad belt sanding machine to achieve a smooth, even surface and uniform thickness.

Advantages

Our calibration process gives many advantages to the whole plywood. Here are some of the many advantages of our calibrated plywood:

1. Easy to cut, shape, fit, CNC route, and make a diverse set of wood products.
2. Save labour costs on sanding.
3. Enhances the wear resistance and strength of the plywood.
4. Low risk of mould and fungal corrosion.
5. Withstand heavier loads, wear and resist tearing.
6. Even application of adhesives and laminates.
7. Easy to handle for various woodworking projects.
8. Excellent foundation for lamination, polishing and painting.
9. Ideal for high-end furniture.
10. Less prone to warping, swelling, twisting and cracking.
