15mm Marine BS1088 Plywood

PLYWOOD

Plywood is one of the most versatile and adaptable materials; it is extremely cost effective. It is a wooden board made from sticking multiple ‘plies’ together with glue to form a thicker board. The boards are alternated to reduce the risk of wood splitting, provide more stability, consistent strength across the board and reduces the shrinking of the wood. Here at Boardland, we offer a large range of colours, styles and finishes and is available in B/BB, BB/BB, BB/CP, CP/CP, C/C grades.

Marine Ply is designed for use in high-moisture areas or exposed to moisture; it is of high quality. Better quality veneers are used to protect it from the moisture. Ideal for priming, staining, varnishing, lacquering and painting. It can be used for structural, severe external applications, boats, general construction and specialist joinery.

PRIMED

If you choose your product to be primed, it will come to you following our priming process which consists of:

1. A first coat of primer is applied by spray to the product, which then must dry.
2. It is then sanded down to entail a smooth finish and is then given another coat.
3. The product is sanded for the last time and is quality checked by our QA manager.

GLOSS

If you choose your product to be glossed, it will come to you with a glazed finish ready to use. Gloss is recommended in busy thoroughfares as it can be cleaned easily and will maintain its gleam for longer. The process consists of:

1. The product is primed as listed above, following all 3 steps.
2. A coat of gloss is then applied and is left to dry.
3. Quality checked by our QA manager.

CLEAR LACQUER

If you choose your product to have a clear lacquer finish, it will come with a hard coating with a 30% sheen. This surface is very durable, perfect for lots of use. The process consists of:

2. It is wiped down and 2 coats of lacquer is applied.
3. Then, it is lightly sanded, which breaks down the grain for a smooth finish.
4. A further coat of lacquer is applied to seal and create the hard top.
