Plywood — Sample (90 × 90 mm) Order a 90 mm × 90 mm plywood sample to evaluate face quality, core layup, edge integrity, and machining behaviour before committing to full sheets or cut-to-size parts. Ideal for confirming finish tests (paint/stain/clear), fastener hold, and whether an exposed ply edge suits your design. Ready to buy panels?

The multi-ply construction delivers excellent dimensional stability, good strength-to-weight, and clean, crisp edges. With options from softwood spruce to hardwood and birch, it covers everything from construction linings to furniture-grade interiors. What This Sample Helps You Check Face appearance: grain, patches, and sanded smoothness Core quality: veneer uniformity, glue lines, and void presence at the edge Machining: saw/rout/drill cleanliness; screw-holding near edges Finish workflow: primer/paint, stain/clear coat, and sealant adhesion Typical Uses (full boards / cut to size) Furniture & cabinetry (doors, drawer boxes, shelves) Decorative interiors with exposed ply edges Wall/ceiling panels, shopfitting, and displays General construction linings, sub-bases, and vehicle/van fit-outs (grade dependent) Key Features Stable cross-laminated core resists warping Good strength-to-weight and reliable screw-holding Smooth faces ready for clear or painted finishes (grade dependent) CNC-friendly for accurate, repeatable parts Available across species/grades/thicknesses to suit budget and finish Sample & Product Specs Sample size: 90 × 90 mm (nominal) Faces: Sanded (utility to decorative, varies by line) Core: Multi-ply veneers Bonding: Moisture resistance varies by product line (see full board page) Use class: Interior to protected exterior (per grade/spec) Master sheet sizes/thicknesses: see Full Board or Cut to Size (All Plywood MDF) Finishing & Handling Notes (full boards) De-dust; seal faces and especially edges before finishing Use sharp TCG/ATB blades; support cuts to minimise splintering For painted finishes, consider filler/primer to level end grain on ply edges Exterior/protected use requires appropriate grade and full sealing Why Order from MDF Direct Move from sample to production with Full Boards or Cut to Size (All Plywood MDF)—we cut on calibrated equipment to ≈0.1 mm tolerance for clean, square parts.

Safety Remember to follow safe handling guidelines for sheet materials when cutting or sanding. Use appropriate PPE and dust extraction. Frequently Asked Questions 1. Which plywood type should I choose? For premium interiors, consider Birch Plywood or Hardwood Plywood. For utility/structural linings, Spruce/Softwood Plywood is a good value. For traction floors, see Buffalo Board. 2. Can I leave the edges exposed? Yes—many designs celebrate the multi-ply edge. Sand and seal edges for durability, or apply veneer edging. 3. Is this suitable outdoors? Use depends on grade and bonding. For protected exterior settings choose appropriate exterior-bonded panels and seal all faces/edges. 4. Do you cut to size and CNC? Absolutely—order Plywood — Cut to Size or ask about CNC profiling for complex parts.
