Blockboard
We stock Far Eastern and Chinese Blockboard. Blockboard is only suitable for interior use.

Brazilian Plywood
We stock both Hardwood (Amescla) Plywood and Softwood (Pine) Plywood from Brazilian manufacturers in a full range of sizes and thicknesses. We also hold stocks of Medium Density Overlaid (MDO) panels which are suitable for concrete formwork.

Chinese Plywood
Chinese Hardwood Faced Panels offer a good quality face veneer and the poplar core makes the plywood lighter than similar panels con­structed of other hardwoods. The surface is good for painting and veneering. We can also offer “hard­wood throughout” panels from China for applications re­quiring a stronger product.

Coniferous Plywood
From temporary hoardings to top quality flooring and concrete formwork, there is a panel suitable for the purpose. Obviously the cheaper grades of panel are unsuitable for demanding applications and a top quality panel would generally be too expensive to use for general purpose work. We stock a range of panels which will cover most requirements, including structural work where a CE2+ panel has been specified.

Far Eastern Plywood
Far Eastern plywood products are generally made from tropical hardwood and are manufactured in Malaysia or Indonesia. Portable Plywood stocks top quality plywood from well known manufacturers based in this region. A full range of sizes and grades including CE2+ panels are always available from stock. We are also able to supply to special order, cut-to-size, pre-painted and flame retardant panels.

Hardboard
We stock a full range of Standard, Perforated, White Painted and Oil Tempered grades. Hardboard is commonly used as a floor covering but can also be used in a wide range of panelling and cladding applications. Easy to cut and fix, it can also be painted.

Other Fibreboards
Portable Plywood hold stocks of Ivory Faced Insulation Boards and a range of Sundeala Boards. These are graded A for exterior use and either K or Class 1 FR for interior use. Sundeala is particularly useful for notice boards, office partition screens and similar applications.

OSB
Orientated Strand Board is an exterior grade panel which has many packaging and sheathing uses where a solid faced panel is required. The product is made to very strict manufacturing tolerances, is easy to cut and can be painted to give a durable finish. Portable Plywood stock OSB 2 (Standard Grade) and OSB 3 (Conditioned Grade) which offers more stability in moist conditions.

Russian Birch Plywood
Available in a range of sheet sizes, thicknesses and veneer grades, Russian Birch Plywood is widely used in joinery and packaging applications. The multi laminated construction and consistent quality of the veneers ensure the strength and stability of the panels.

Speciality Plywood
Portable Plywood holds stocks of French Okoume Plywood which is widely used in high quality joinery as is Flexible Plywood which is available in long grain and cross grain. A full range of film/MDO faced panels can also be supplied which are aimed at the concrete formwork and vehicle body building markets but which are also suitable for other applications where a smooth faced panel is required.
