Birch plywood is a high-quality, multi-ply hardwood panel that provides consistency in strength with fine grain texture and ease of finishing. Birch also offers a high aesthetic standard and can be used untreated or stained. At Builders Marketplace, our range of birch plywood sheets will be suitable for any building project.
Birch Plywood is constructed using layers of birch, held together with resin, and has one of the highest strength to weight ratios because of this reinforced layer structure. Birch Plywood sheets are also an excellent choice for using with machines such as CNC boring machines and radial saws.
The BB Grade Birch Plywood comes almost flaw-free and creates a beautiful finish from all angles. As well as this, the BB/CP Grade means that one side has a few imperfections while the other side has a purer, cleaner finish. This duality gives you price scales for your specific requirements.
Birch is one of the most sustainable options for your projects or your clients. As a quick-growing tree, and currently, in abundance in Northern Europe, the felling of birch has minimal impact on the biodiversity levels when it is felled. Birch is also more resistant to warping than any other plywood sheets and the screws stay tight and secure in the holes.
Our Birch Plywood sheets are available as full 8x4ft sheets or smaller cuts in a variety of sizes from 4mm to 24mm.
The different grades of birch plywood are B/BB, BB/BB, BB/CP, CP/CP and C/C. All of these grades are different and can be used for various parts of a project.
Birch plywood uses veneers that are squashed together at right angles. This is called cross-bonding and it makes it stronger when more layers are added. Because of the interlocked pattern of the grain, you should pre-drill the sheet to make cutting the panel easier. We also provide a cutting service.
