About Marine Plywood
Marine ply can withstand severe climatic conditions. In order to maintain good quality standards, quality veneers of uniform thickness are bonded with BWP grade of P.F.resin conforming to IS 848:1974. Finally, it is treated in a vacuum pressure impregnation plant, using specified quality preservatives to render it resistant to marine organisms. It can be widely used in bus and truck bodies, railway coaches, kitchen accessories, sign boards, paneling, partitions, and bathrooms.
Marine Plywood has to be checked thoroughly for getting assured quality. Although routine vigilance of quality is done at every step the team makes sure that every piece should undergo double-checking by technically trained professionals. Marine ply can withstand rigorous climatic conditions and alternately dry and wet weather in coastal areas. This marine ply is dimensionally stable and ideal for long-lasting services even in very humid and seaside areas. It can resist boiling water up to the unexpected extent
