Hardwood Plywood
Hardwood Plywood is defined by the types of slicing, matching, and grade of the wood product. With various methods of slicing and matching, veneers can be customized to each wood species and project, resulting in multiple exceptional options to make any project uniquely artful.
Rotary Slice:
Rotary Sliced veneer is peeled from a whole log set in a lathe and turned against a special knife, resulting in a cut that roughly parallels the growth rings to produce a bold and often striated grain pattern. Like unwinding a roll of paper, the ribbon of veneer is then cut to usable widths. Rotary Slice creates exceptionally wide sheets with distinctive grain patterns. Rotary cutting is the only method of producing veneers that create Whole Piece Faces (WPF). This is generally the most economical way to create veneer.
Whole Piece Face Matching:
WPF Matching is a continuous piece of veneer peeled from a log using the Rotary Slicing method. The result is a single sheet of veneer that reveals a continuous grain pattern throughout the sheet. WPF is often desired as it displays the natural grain character of the wood species.
Why Natural Birch?
- Heavy, hard and strong
- Glues, stains and polishes well
- Generally straight grain with a fine, uniform texture
- Cost-effective
- Ideal for cabinetry, millwork and furniture
- Good bending properties
Hardwood Plywood products are made from beautiful hardwood, designed to showcase the stunning figure and allure of wood. Often stained or finished, these thin sheets are assembled using an engineered core—from veneer core, particleboard, to medium density fiberboard.

Specifications
The grading standard for Hardwood plywood comes from the Hardwood Plywood and Veneer Association (HPVA). Grade B plywood offers desirable appearance and natural characteristics. Colour characteristics are similar in appearance to A Grade plywood. More burls, larger pin knots and mineral streaks are allowed but not at the expense of desirability. B Grade plywood is excellent for richly colored application and more economical price points.
