Introducing Inner Beauty.
You can see it for yourself, right there in our core. Its multi-layer, 4' x 8' construction
of 60% imported Polish birch and 40% alder creates an attractive solution for those
wanting an exposed edge finish. And since it's available in any combination of hardwood
grade and species, Europly™ gives your customers something else that's hard
to find in hardwood plywood: choice.
Europly™ is more than attractive, however. It's strong and resilient, and
its nearly void-free construction provides excellent machinability. With a tighter
thickness tolerance than standard veneer core panels, it also processes more efficiently,
making it ideal for highvolume production.
Also, with its Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) ecolabel - which verifies the wood
in this product comes from well-managed forests, independently certified by SmartWood
in accordance with the rules of the Forest Sterwardship Council - customers are
assured that their panel is beautiful, strong and good for the environment. Contact
your distributor for availability.
