We Boards India Plywood are the Plywood Sheets Manufacturers in Kerala of Semi Hardwood Plywood in Oukume face veneer. Commercial grade plywood means a MR or moisture resistant plywood. It is the plywood generally used for domestic purposes like interior designing and home decorations.
We manufacture Commercial Plywood with different face veneers (top most layer of plywood that you see) like Gurjan, Oukume, Makkai, Solomon etc which are obtained by natural hardwood trees by means of a process known as 'Peeling'.
The main purpose of face veneer is to give smooth surface for aesthetic purposes as well as for Mica or lamination over it. In Indian Market, Oukume face veneer is famous for its low cost, light reddish wood grain patterns.
The important features of MR grade plywood are listed below.
It is an Interior grade plywood, which mean it’s for indoor use.
The term MR (moisture resistant) is only limited to atmospheric conditions like humidity. It has nothing to do with being water resistant. Water resistant plywoods usually come under Exterior grade plywood.
It is the most common plywood used for making home and office furniture. If waterproof plywood is needed for the furniture, one should opt for the higher quality BWR (boiling water resistant) grade plywood. It is waterproof and made up of phenolic resins. They cost more than commercial grade plywood. Still, it’s ideal to use them to build furniture that are prone to have water exposed on them
The BIS number of MR grade plywood is IS:303.
Features of Commercial Plywood
Commercial plywood has a very high internal strength. That’s precisely why it has takers in the domestic market. It adorns most of the interiors of homes and office spaces. It is suitable for making furniture like kitchen rooftops, wall mounted cabinets, file cabinets, doors, chairs and tables used inside a room. It has to be noted that MR plywood has the highest internal strength among all grades of plywood that are available. Because of this, it is easier to wrap and fold as required for the interior decors. This makes it a robust and durable grade. The life your furniture is helped prolong by the use of proper commercial plywood.
Urea formaldehyde is the agent used for binding the layers of an MR grade plywood. However, the synthetic resin that’s used in BWR grade plywood (phenyl formaldehyde) is Eco-friendlier, for the ones who are concerned with the same.
But it should also be noted that not all commercial plywoods are MR plywood. Commercial plywood’s range from basic grade to MR grade. The range increases with respect to factors like tensile strength, internal strength, durability, and wear and tear.
