What is film faced plywood used for?

Film faced plywood is an exterior plywood used in building and construction projects.  It has a special film coating on its surface made from phenol or melamine on either or both sides. It gives the plywood a higher resistance to moisture, abrasion, chemical degradation and fungal attack compared to ordinary plywood.

Its increased stability and resistance to moisture, ultraviolet radiation and corrosive chemicals, film-faced plywood is ideal for outdoor applications such as the external surfaces of new buildings.  The extra film layer and acrylic varnished edges make it more durable and less able to distort when used outdoors in harsh weather and adverse conditions. Buildings in direct sunlight are less prone to wear and tear if they are made from film-faced plywood, at least as part of the overall structure.

Film faced plywood is lightweight, resistant to corrosion attack and water, easily combined with other materials and easy to clean and cut. Treating the film faced plywood’s edges with waterproof paint makes it highly water-and wear-resistant.

  • Field Of Application

Due to its durability and easily handled surface, it can be used in open environment in construction and building, e.g. warehouses, railway wagons, floors and sidewalls of trucks etc. Coating the film faced plywood with high-quality import films ensures hardness and damage resistance.

Film faced plywood can be used in conditions of high temperature drop, influence of moisture, detergent cleaning and provides protection against termites.
