Plyboo® Plywood Edge Grain Plywood
Plyboo architectural plywood is made from 100% rapidly renewable bamboo. This plywood can be cut and sanded using conventional woodworking equipment and offers excellent dimensional stability. It can also be glued or mechanically fastened using the same materials and fasteners commonly used with wood. Available in both an amber and natural tones, Plyboo bamboo plywood is sanded to 180-grit and is a low-resin, open-grained material that takes stains and finishes exceptionally well. FSC certified bamboo, as well as PlybooPure no added formaldehyde panels, are now available.
