Dragon Ply

From North America’s premier hardwood lumber and plywood supplier comes: Dragon Ply — a new standard in quality import plywood. Sourced from the finest manufacturers in China, Hardwoods Dragon Ply meets or exceeds domestic quality and standards.

Dragon Ply’s superior properties are a result of extensive on-site mill tours and rigorous inspections to ensure quality control standards for the best product possible. The result is cabinet ready and structural panels that revolutionize hardwood plywood sourcing.

Hardwoods Specialty Products is proud to announce that Dragon Ply®, North America’s premier import plywood, is now available CERTIFIED to meet the Phase I formaldehyde emission standards of the California Air Resources Board (CARB). CARB Phase I standards take effect January 1, 2009 and regulate the formaldehyde emissions for all interior wood products (cabinets, furniture, millwork etc.) that are produced in California or shipped into California. For additional information visit: www.arb.ca.gov/regact/2007/compwood07/compwood07.htm

Veneer

  • Manufactured and graded on-site ensuring HPVA and better veneer grades. Most are available in both plain sliced and rotary cut
  • .3 - .6mm veneer on all cabinet grade fancy plywood
  • .5mm veneer on all structural and platform grade plywood
  • All thick-face MPF veneer is composed by machine to prevent veneer overlap and separation. This ensures the highest quality veneer joinery
  • Cabinet grade veneer is sanded to 220 grit eliminating the need for sanding
  • .3mm wet lay up is available upon request in all fancy plywood species

Core

  • Multi-ply core construction combined with proper core drying results in a more stable, higher quality core
  • Core options include plantation grown Poplar veneer; Combination core; all Birch veneer core; light weight lumber core; Veneer core with MDF crossbands; MDF and Particleboard
  • All face and core veneers are machine dried before lay up and inspected to ensure 12% moisture content or less prior to shipping
  • Core is calibrated before application of face veneer to ensure HPVA or better thickness tolerance
  • MR glue line with WBP exterior glue available upon request
  • E-2 formaldehyde standard with E-1 and E-0 available upon request
  • Core construction better than K core quality as all core voids are replaced
