Lightweight poplar plywood from 3 to 40 mm, in nineteen panel types, supplied across Europe.

Poplar grows fast and straight in the plantations of northern Italy and peels into wide, pale veneers. Cross-bonded, they make a panel that is light to handle, stable in the sheet and clean to machine.

03 Face grades

Face grades to EN 635-2

Each face of a panel is classed on its own, so a grade is written as a pair — I/II, II/III, III/IV. Specify the visible face for the finish you plan, and the reverse for what it has to do.

  1. E

    Clear

    Practically free of visible features. For the most demanding transparent finishes.

    Clear lacquer, premium fronts

  2. I

    Visible face

    Only a few small, sound pin knots; slight colour variation and neat, colour-matched repairs.

    Varnish, stain, veneering

  3. II

    Natural face

    Colour variation and sound, tight knots; small defects well patched.

    Laminate, paint, opaque finish

  4. III

    Open face

    Larger knots, splits and repairs allowed; can be filled on request.

    Concealed parts, carcass backs

  5. IV

    Utility

    All natural features that do not affect how the panel performs.

    Packaging, transport cases

Summary for orientation. The appearance classes are defined in EN 635-1 and EN 635-2; the grade supplied is stated in the written offer.
