CABINETS · WARDROBES · COMMERCIAL INTERIORS
Coordinate interiors, end panels and front edges. Include back grooves, shelf-pin holes and connectors with the final banded cabinet dimensions.
Choose sheet length around tall sides and dividers. Mark decor direction, supports and joints, with a full-length part where handling or flatness matters.
Match visible sets, reverse faces and edges. Bring hinge and handle details, gaps and component weight requirements with the selected plywood.
Include shelf spans, loading and repeated assembly. Choose the touched edges and cleanable finish with the fittings and support arrangement.
Show splash locations, plumbing holes and sink-base details. We can help select the bond, edges and opening protection for the furniture.
Plan the joints, cut-outs and fixings around the room layout. Include any project fire-performance and installation requirements with the panel construction.
CORE · LAYUP · FITTINGS
Our core options include poplar, hardwood, birch and eucalyptus. Specify an all-birch construction when you need birch throughout, or identify a mixed layup and outer veneer separately. The decor can remain the same while the core changes the part’s weight, edge appearance and machining requirements.
| Requirement | What to specify | What to inspect |
|---|---|---|
| Species and combination | Poplar, birch, eucalyptus or an identified hardwood construction; mixed or single-species requirement | Product identity, agreed construction and a representative cut edge |
| Veneer arrangement | Thickness, layup requirement and any declared panel direction needed by the design | Layer continuity and agreement with the selected construction |
| Edge connectors | Hardware type, location, drilling depth and component load or trial requirement | Machined hole walls, core gaps at the fitting and the assembled connection |
| Visible plywood edge | Permitted joints, patches, colour variation, filling and final edge finish | The finished edge under the intended viewing conditions |
| Covered edge | Band system, edge preparation, allowable core defects and finished width | Bond support, closed corners and the actual net edge build-up |
Plywood uses crossed veneer directions. For a loaded shelf or demanding connection, include the panel direction, thickness and relevant construction data with the design. Mark the printed decor direction separately on the cutting list.
Inspect long-edge and cross-edge offcuts, narrow strips, grooves and edge-drilled holes from the selected board. Agree the core joints, gaps and repairs acceptable at the fitting or visible edge, then keep that cut sample with the order.
Bring the hardware, engagement length, edge distances and required loading with the component drawing. A drilled and assembled piece connects the panel choice to the actual joint. See the European Panel Federation plywood overview for a material reference.
COLOUR · TEXTURE · REVERSE · EDGE
Choose solid colours, woodgrain, clothgrain or marblegrain with the texture and sheen your furniture needs. Browse the melamine colour catalogue, then send the decor code or finish reference you want to match.
Show what is visible with the furniture open and closed: door backs, shelf undersides and freestanding partitions may expose both faces. Choose matching or different decors and identify the reverse even where concealed.
Compare the actual face, band and corner under your project lighting. For an exposed plywood edge, include the veneer appearance, sanding, permitted filling and coating in the finish reference.

Keep woodgrain direction and neighbouring fronts together in the cutting schedule. For tall doors or long dividers, include the face-and-back construction, support and storage conditions with a full-size part for reviewing flatness.
Compare white, black, woodgrain and double-sided melamine plywood. If you want a real wood face for staining or clear coating, see natural oak veneer plywood. For HPL, send the laminate type, thickness, adhesive and balancing reverse so we can quote that build-up.
THREE FORMATS · CUTTING YIELD
Our standard formats are 1220 × 2440, 1250 × 2500 and 1500 × 3000mm. Compare the sheet against your longest part, printed pattern direction and machine capacity.
For 610 × 730mm blanks, two across with a 3mm kerf need 1223mm. With 10mm trimmed from each outside edge, a 1220mm sheet has 1200mm usable width, while a 1250mm sheet has 1230mm. That extra width changes the layout from one column to two, with 7mm remaining.
This cutting worksheet keeps the 730mm pattern direction along the sheet length, uses 10mm outside trim and 3mm kerfs, and keeps every part in the same orientation.
| Sheet | Usable rectangle | Grid across × along | Blanks per sheet |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1220 × 2440mm | 1200 × 2420mm | 1 × 3 | 3 |
| 1250 × 2500mm | 1230 × 2480mm | 2 × 3 | 6 |
| 1500 × 3000mm | 1480 × 2980mm | 2 × 4 | 8 |
Three rows occupy 3 × 730 + 2 × 3 = 2196mm; four occupy 4 × 730 + 3 × 3 = 2929mm. The layouts yield 3, 6 and 8 blanks per sheet before face selection or processing losses.
| Sheet option | Sheets needed | Purchased face area | Blank area share |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1220 × 2440mm | 8 | 23.8144m² | 44.9% |
| 1250 × 2500mm | 4 | 12.5000m² | 85.5% |
| 1500 × 3000mm | 3 | 13.5000m² | 79.2% |
The 24 blanks total 10.6872m². The area share divides that by purchased face area. Check sheet tolerance, edge condition, decor matching and useful offcuts before selecting the production layout, particularly the 7mm margin on the 1250mm format.
For sheet prices P, Q and R, the material costs for the three layouts are 8P, 4Q and 3R. The middle format costs less than the small format when Q is below 2P, or less than the large format when Q is below 0.75R. Compare equal core, thickness, decor and acceptance, then add cutting, handling, freight and any usable offcuts.
Send your cutting list for a layout around the actual panels and matched furniture sets. Include component orientation and machine limits with the sizes.
SAWN BLANK · PREPARED CORE · FINISHED PART
For a 611 × 731mm finished part with a net 1.0mm addition at each edge, the prepared plywood is 609 × 729mm. Removing 0.5mm from every sawn edge for preparation starts that part at 610 × 730mm.
| Stage | Width × length | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Sawn blank | 610 × 730mm | Includes 0.5mm preparation allowance on each edge |
| Prepared plywood | 609 × 729mm | One millimetre removed overall in each direction |
| Finished component | 611 × 731mm | Two millimetres added overall in each direction |
Measure the completed band-and-adhesive process from prepared core to finished outside edge. Nominal band thickness alone does not define that addition. Identify any edge with a different band, exposed finish or no band before calculating the blank.
With that 1.0mm net build, a hole centre 37.0mm from the finished left edge lies 36.0mm from the prepared core edge, or 36.5mm from the sawn edge before the 0.5mm preparation cut. Use the position required by your fitting, and name the face and edge datum so left and right parts stay correctly handed.
In the dimension worksheet, a prepared width of 609.0 ±0.2mm and an addition of 0.9–1.1mm at each edge gives a finished width of 610.6–611.4mm. Set the finished acceptance limit on the order drawing and allocate the cutting, preparation and banding tolerances to meet it.
If core repair or extra trimming changes the prepared size, update the final dimensions, hole datums and edge process together.
CUT · PREPARE · EDGE · FIT
Use the ordered thickness, core and decor for a straight cut, crosscut, groove, banded corner and critical fitting. This checks the visible face and veneer construction on the same furniture part.
Check the tooling, support, feed, orientation and scoring setup for the actual board. Inspect entry and exit faces, then the prepared core support beneath the band.
Include the tool’s deepest point, blind-hole depth, remaining material and any opposite groove or drill path. Inspect the cut before fitting the hinge or connector.
Check straightness, cleanliness, core joints and veneer support before applying the selected band and adhesive. Follow processing and curing instructions, then inspect the trimmed corner and joint.
Include sanding, filling and coating where the layered edge is visible. Mark routed handles, chamfers and grooves that expose plywood, with the finish needed on each area.
For edge-drilled connectors, keep alignment, engagement, hardware and any loading or repeated-assembly trial with the chosen core. Record the completed size after all edge operations.
FURNITURE USE · MOISTURE · CLEANING
Our range includes melamine-based and WBP phenolic bonding options. Choose the adhesive and plywood bond with the intended use, separately from the decorative melamine face.
Include contact, wear and cleaning products with the decor and band. For counters or frequently cleaned surfaces, send the abrasion, scratch, stain or chemical requirement with the panel brief.
Show splashes, plumbing, hidden edges and locations that stay wet. Plan the bond, edges, pipe holes, joints and later site cuts with the expected moisture and drying.
For wet or exterior service, send the installation and exposure so our team can plan the complete face, core and protective detail. Explore waterproof melamine plywood for that route. For a fibreboard construction, compare moisture-resistant melamine MDF with its own machining and core requirements.
PANEL DATA · CONSTRUCTION · TEST METHOD
The product moisture guide is 10–15%; the panel data record below reports 5.8% against a 4–13% criterion. Set the delivery moisture target, conditioning and measurement method with the selected core and order.
For load, hardware, surface or emission requirements, send the property and method your project needs. Our team will help match the relevant data to the plywood construction, thickness and intended component.
| Property | Table criterion | Recorded value |
|---|---|---|
| Moisture content | 4–13% | 5.8% |
| Density | 450–880kg/m³ | 730kg/m³ |
| Density tolerance | ±7.0% | ±1.4% |
| Thickness expansion after water exposure | ≤10% | 8.8% |
| Internal bonding | ≥0.45MPa | 0.49MPa |
| Bending strength, MOR | ≥20MPa | 26.8MPa |
| Modulus of elasticity, MOE | ≥2200MPa | 3280MPa |
| Face screw holding | ≥1000N | 1120N |
| Edge screw holding | ≥800N | 870N |
| Surface bonding | No limit stated | 1.28MPa |
| Formaldehyde — E1 record | ≤9.0mg/100g | 4.9mg/100g |
| Formaldehyde — E2 record | ≤30.0mg/100g | 20mg/100g |
These records cover different properties and configurations. Use the density and moisture condition of the selected core for weight planning, and keep the layup, direction, thickness, hardware and test conditions with mechanical results. The 730kg/m³ entry is not a density for every core option.
The E1 and E2 entries are separate mass-based records in mg/100g. Request the required method and destination classification with your chosen construction. They are separate from the 18mm SGS report’s mg/L results shown in Reports for this panel.
The order defines the required construction and acceptance values. For shipment weight, use its actual dimensions and density, then add packing and supplied fittings.
SHEETS · CUT PARTS · PACKED SETS
Keep the core, thickness, decor batch and drawing reference with the inspection record. Inspect before banding or hardware conceals the cut edge, groove or connection.
| Stage | Checks to record | Useful evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Incoming sheets | Identity, count, damage, face and reverse, thickness and dimensions | Pack labels, agreed measuring locations and photographs of exceptions |
| Freshly cut blanks | Chipping on both faces, core continuity, direction and blank dimensions | Long-edge and cross-edge offcuts from the actual cutting trial |
| Prepared and edged parts | Edge support, bond line, corners, colour match and finished size | A retained banded corner and dimensional record |
| Drilled assembly | Hole datum, depth, hardware fit and the specified connection trial | Representative fitting, drawing revision and trial conditions |
| Packed component sets | Part IDs, visible-face protection, decor grouping and quantity | Set list, packing sequence and agreed spare-part allocation |
State whether thickness includes both decorative faces, where readings are taken and the conditioning state. At 9mm, select one tolerance in the quotation from the listed thickness bands. Use the agreed final-part dimensions, support and flatness method when checking processed components.
Store packs on a level, supported base in dry, protected conditions. Keep separators clean, protect corners and spread restraint loads. Record receiving damage with identifiable parts and follow the selected material’s conditioning requirements before machining.
Our production and inspection service can connect dimensional checks, packing photos and part records to your order.
COLOUR FIRST · WORKING CORNER NEXT
Compare the broad face, reverse and completed corner under the project lighting. Include a banded edge or the sanded and coated plywood edge you want to expose.
Add the critical groove, blind recess or edge-drilled connector on the chosen core. Check cut quality, completed size and hardware fit with the actual fitting.
For tall panels, add a useful size to review handling and flatness. For furniture near water, include the actual edge, opening or joint. Keep the accepted decor, core, thickness, face designation and drawing revision with the production order.
Standard samples without special work or a logo have no sample charge; delivery is separate. Send the drawing and purpose for a custom processed sample.
PRODUCT REPORTS · ORDER RECORDS
The SGS report linked below covers 18mm natural hardwood plywood with melamine paper facing as configuration A and film paper facing as configuration B. Use configuration A when reviewing the melamine-faced route, and keep the facing and core identity with its results.
Send the required certificates, emission method or component criteria with your destination and panel specification. We can help connect product reports, the accepted sample, drawing revision, inspection records and packing documents to that order.
Keep any management-system certificate with the supplier information, and each product test with its identified construction. For other cores or thicknesses, include the required data in the enquiry so our team can arrange the appropriate document set.

PRODUCT-SPECIFIC QUESTIONS
Use it for cabinets, wardrobes, shelving, retail fixtures and decorative interiors. Choose the core, decor and processing around the part, its fittings and its use conditions.
Melamine plywood has a bonded veneer core; melamine MDF uses a fibreboard core. Compare the cut edge, weight, machining, hardware and finished appearance needed by your furniture. We manufacture both and can help choose the route.
Choose poplar, hardwood, birch or eucalyptus, 2–30mm thicknesses, and 1220 × 2440, 1250 × 2500 or 1500 × 3000mm sheets. Send your core, finish and size combination, including custom-size requirements.
The thickness bands list ±0.2mm for 2–9mm and ±0.3mm for 9–30mm. For a 9mm order, record one selected tolerance and whether measurements include the decorative faces in the quotation.
Yes. Send both decor references and identify the visible sides. Choose the reverse construction with the panel thickness and component size, then compare the face, reverse and edge sample.
Woodgrain melamine uses a printed decorative design. For a real wood face to stain or clear-coat, choose natural veneer plywood. For HPL, specify the laminate, thickness, adhesive and reverse as a separate build-up.
Yes. Send the finished dimensions, visible faces, edge schedule and fitting positions. We can quote cutting, edge preparation, banding, drilling and packing by set with the selected panel.
Yes. Include the veneer appearance, permitted joints or repairs, sanding and coating with the design. Review a finished edge beside the melamine face and retain the reference for production.
Send the moisture locations, plumbing openings and cleaning routine. We will help choose the plywood bond and protection at faces, edges and joints; the waterproof melamine plywood route develops those details around the installation.
Keep the printed pattern direction, sheet trimming and kerfs in the cutting layout. Calculate the sawn blank, prepared core and finished part separately so the band build-up and hardware positions match the drawing.
