What do the different grades of plywood mean?

Property	MR Grade Plywood	BWR Grade Plywood	BWP Grade Plywood
Moisture Resistance	Medium	High	High
Application	MR grade plywood is suitable for use in interior applications where moderate moisture resistance is required, such as in furniture, partitions, and panelling. It is not recommended for outdoor use, as it is not waterproof.	BWR grade plywood is ideal for exterior applications such as doors, windows, and frames, where high-level moisture resistance is needed. It can also be used for interior applications that require high moisture resistance.	BWP grade plywood is suitable for both interior and exterior applications that require very high moisture resistance. It is commonly used for panelling, cabinets, and furniture that will be exposed to moisture and water. It is also ideal for use in areas with high humidity, such as bathrooms and kitchens.

How is Plywood made?

Plywood is made by glueing together multiple layers or plies of thin veneer sheets. These veneer sheets are cut from different types of base materials, each with its own unique characteristics and properties. Here are some of the most common base materials used in plywood

Softwood: Softwood, such as pine and fir, is one of the most common base materials used in plywood. Softwood plywood is typically lightweight and strong, making it ideal for construction and furniture-making.

Hardwood: Hardwood, such as oak and maple, is another popular base material used in plywood. Hardwood plywood is known for its durability, strength, and resistance to wear and tear, making it ideal for high-traffic areas.

Birch: Birch is a popular base material used in plywood for its strength, durability, and resistance to warping and twisting. It is often used for applications that require a smooth and uniform finish.

Rubberwood: Rubberwood is a sustainable base material used in plywood that is known for its strength, stability, and resistance to shrinkage and warping. It is often used for furniture-making and interior applications.

Mahogany: Mahogany is a tropical hardwood that is known for its strength, durability, and beautiful grain patterns. Mahogany plywood is an excellent choice for high-end furniture-making and interior design applications that require a premium and luxurious finish.
