Importance of the finish

Where appropriate types of wood-based panels are used, for example as external cladding, infill panels or soffits, it is important that the finish applied is suitable for external use and provides the required protection to the panel. Paints and stains formulated for external use on natural timber can be used on wood-based panels.Marine Grade Plywood is a sturdier, higher-quality material manufactured with high-quality face and core biologically durable hardwoods throughout. This type of wood's thin sheets of veneer (plies) is usually set up perpendicularly as part of a process called cross-lamination that helps add extra strength to the material.
