Poplar Throughout Plywood

Poplar construction giving significant weight saving and very high quality faces.

Sustainable, lightweight, and extremely versatile for applications across many industries.

With an average density of 400 kilograms per cube metre, it is easy to transport and even carry, making it perfect for applications where weight is essential such as vehicle construction or furniture manufacture.

The appearance of the veneer is one of high uniformity with a barely perceptible grain. This means that there is a decorative quality to the board no matter the grade.

The Poplar used in Poplar Throughout Plywood is a very specific strain of the fast-growing I-214 Italian clone specifically developed for the plywood industry and it is harvested in Northern Italy on the banks of the River Po. The species is synonymous with environmental protection as it is known to improve the quality of air and water, protect the biodiversity of natural habitats and is a renewable and sustainable resource.

Panguaneta has implemented and plays a leading role in an exemplary programme for the sustainable development of the Poplar industry in Italy; the ‘100% Poplar Made in Italy’ label. The company is also a member of the world organisation ‘Pro-Populus’ which is active in the promotion and environmental safeguarding of poplar trees.

Panguaneta does not make use of wood harvested from areas where traditions or civil rights have been violated or where there are ongoing armed conflicts.
