Molded PlyWood
Attributes

Plywood is an engineered material made by bonding thin layers (plies) of wood veneer. This laminated structure gives plywood strength, flexibility, and dimensional stability, allowing it to be molded into smooth, curved shapes without cracking or warping.

Curvature

Can be bent or curved in multiple directions, creating compound surfaces.

Strength

Cross-laminated structure provides strength, stability, and flexibility.

Choice

Design

Finishing

Even the most, complex, ambitious design visions are possible.

Staining, varnishing, or high-quality natural oils create stylish and protective surface.

Choose from a wide selection of A-surface veneers and laminates.

Flame Resistence

Can be designed to meet requirements for flame resistance.

Sustainably harvested

The wood used in our Molded Plywood products is sustainably harvested from PEFC-  and FSC- managed forests. This helps companies reduce their environmental impact while meeting green building or procurement requirements.

Molded PlyWood
Manufacturing

Molded plywood parts are made through a multi-step process combining automation and manual operations, producing durable, precisely shaped parts with excellent finish and integrity.

Veneer Production

We manufacturer our own high-quality veneer from FSC- and PEFC- certified logs. Veneer is cut to thickness and sorted for quality.

Multi-Axis Machining

The molded part is removed and placed in a fixture, where a multi-axis CNC trims away excess material to reveal the final shape.

Finishing

Parts that require a decorative or protective finish can be painted, stained, varnished, or oiled on an automated finishing line.

Pressing

Layers of prepared veneer are stacked in a mold, then shaped using a press that applies heat and pressure to form the final part.
