How Do You Choose the Right Plywood?
Many factors determine the appearance and cost of decorative veneers used in States hardwood plywood panels. Being able to choose exactly the right combination to achieve the desired appearance is part of what makes hardwood plywood such a popular choice for designers, architects, craftsmen and other woodworking professionals.
STEP 1
Choose the Substrate
The process of creating your custom hardwood paneling starts with choosing the core (substrate) of your panel. Core selection is often a balancing act of choosing between performance characteristics and price.
What types of plywood cores are available?
Veneer core is comprised of wood veneers laminated in alternating directions to achieve the desired panel thickness. Veneer core panels can be laminated in one step for maximum economy or constructed and sanded to a metered tolerance using a two-step laminating process.
Combination core is a hybrid substrate, combining composite crossbands with veneer innerplies to produce an exceptionally flat, smooth surface. These panels can be used when there is a need to have the weight, structural value and screw-holding ability of veneer core with the flatness and higher density of MDF.
Composite core is made by combining composite crossbands with veneer innerplies to produce an exceptionally flat, smooth surface. They’re valued for their flat, smooth surfaces and tight tolerances, as well as their relatively low costs.
STEP 2
Choose the Front and Back Veneers
Once you’ve chosen a substrate for your panel, the next step is to decide what veneers will cover the front and back of the panel. Choices to consider include the wood species, what type of cut, how the veneers are matched and what grade fits your project.
STEP 3
Choose Thickness and Length
We stock most items in a standard sized panel 4 x 8 sheet. Custom orders can be ordered and can include custom panel thickness, as well as extra short or extra long panel lengths.
STEP 4
Choose a Finish or Not
The final step in choosing your plywood panel is to determine whether you need a finished or unfinished panel. A wide range of options are available in both unfinished as well as UV-cured. States Industries offers their flatline finish NOVA line, anti-microbial NOVA SI, laboratory-grade NOVA LAB finish, popular NOVA Peak options or completely custom color matching for whatever you need.
