Non-Slip Surface
Eucalyptus Core
Moisture-Resistant Top Layer

Square mesh phenolic plywood combines the rugged durability of phenolic resin with a unique square mesh surface, creating a specialised panel ideal for demanding industrial and outdoor applications. The robust eucalyptus core of cross-laminated wood veneers is reinforced with a durable phenolic overlay, providing exceptional strength and moisture resistance.

This heavy-duty plywood excels in harsh environments, withstanding extreme temperatures, chemicals, and wear. The square mesh surface offers superior traction and slip resistance, making it perfect for walkways, stairs, ramps, and flooring in high-traffic areas. Its weather-resistant properties also make it suitable for exterior cladding, signage, and outdoor furniture.

Buy your phenolic plywood sheets cut-to-size at a fraction of the cost of Buffalo Board, with great customer service, fast delivery, and precision cutting techniques ensuring excellent accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions

What thickness should I use?

18mm melamine-faced plywood is suitable for shelves, countertops, and other furniture-based projects. Our thicker 24mm sheets provide extra sturdiness for heavy-duty uses, often used in commercial vehicles, trailers, boats and more.

Is melamine plywood heat resistant?

While melamine facing is fairly heat resistant compared to wood veneers, excessive heat can still cause damage. It should not be used as an unprotected cooking surface.

What is the difference between melamine and phenolic plywood?

Melamine plywood has a resin-impregnated decorative paper surface, while phenolic plywood has an overlay film made from phenolic resins. Melamine provides a smoother, more attractive finish suitable for visible surfaces, while phenolic is more industrial-grade.

Is melamine MDF better than melamine-faced plywood?

Melamine MDF (medium-density fiberboard) tends to be denser and has a smoother, more consistent surface than melamine plywood which has a veneer face over the wood plies. However, plywood is generally stronger and more rigid making it preferable for larger spans or weight-bearing applications.

How can I cut melamine plywood

Use a fine-toothed blade designed for plywood or laminates and make cuts slowly to prevent chipping the melamine surface. Generally, carbide-tipped blades work best.

In some of the plywood pieces, the glue layer isn't completely even, for example, the glue layer might start off one thickness, and then get thicker, and then go back to the original thickness, meaning that the adjacent wood layers become really thin to accommodate the thicker glue and to maintain a consistent overall plywood thickness. Maybe this is just normal for plywood, i don't know.
