Birch Plywood – Structural & Engineering

Birch plywood panels featuring a consistent high density and grain structure provide a very high strength to weight ratio which is ideal for a wide range of structural and engineering applications. Having a consistent density and grain pattern, birch panels are one of the very few plywood products that have reference tables giving loading values for bending strength and modulus of elasticity.

The unique properties of birch plywood provide a multi-purpose, high quality product which can be easily machined and worked to fine finishes and tolerances. Due to its clean and aesthetically pleasing appearance it can be used for clear decorative purposes or overlaid with many different laminates for industrial and functional applications which may require specific performance criteria.

Our extensive range of birch plywood for structural and engineering industries is produced by a range of manufacturers who are renowned for their technical knowledge and ability to produce very high-quality plywood. Products are produced using selected premium birch logs to ensure that all stringent requirements are fully satisfied.

Environment

Hanson Plywood’s Birch Plywood is sourced from well-managed, FSC® and PEFC™  chain of custody certified forest management units.

The company’s robust FSC® Chain of Custody management system ensures that this certification is respected and adhered to throughout the supply chain. For further information, please refer to our Environment Page.

Birch  Plywood also emits extremely low levels of formaldehyde and is CARB Phase 2 compliant. This means the product’s glue line is tested by the California Air Resource Board to meet a permissible level lower than that which is dictated by the European Standards (E1 under EN 717-2).
