Our prefinished plywood from Columbia Forest Products is a domestically manufactured material. The UV finish has to be factory applied where the epoxy acrylate finish is cured using ultra violet light. This produces a very tough finish that resists scrapes, chips and is easy to clean.

Yes we do. While there are trace amounts of naturally occurring Formaldehyde in most living things, all of our plywood from Columbia Forest Products is manufactured with "Purebond" adhesive, which has No Urea Formaldehyde. The plywood can also be ordered prefinished using a NO VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) Finish. Our Flake and MDF can also be ordered as NAUF (No Added Urea Formaldehyde) and FSC certified as well.

Depends what type of backing is used on the veneer. If 10m, 20m or 2ply veneer a white PVA glue is recommended. On phenolic backed veneer contact cement is acceptable as well as a PVA glue. A veneer manufacturer does not warranty a contact cement application for veneer to a substrate board.

Composite veneers are a machined product that will ensure consistency across every sheet. This is a viable option for an area that may be high traffic or high use and will sometimes need to be replaced down the line. Natural veneers are exactly that. They come from the specific tree mentioned and usually there is some differentiation between each log. Also with composite veneers you have the ability to get looks of species that are currently not available or have a high cost factor.

Yes we do, in any species and in any backer. 10 mil, 20 mil, 2 ply wood backer, and poly backer. Also to go along with the custom veneers we can manufacture custom panels to your specifications. Cut to size or full panels as well as Blueprint match panels.

If the product is in stock at one of the other Atlantic Plywood branches we use a transfer system to ship stock between branches to make as much stock as possible available to our customer base, usually within a week. When it is an urgent time issue, Atlantic Plywood also uses LTL methods to ship product to our customers as quickly as possible. If the product needs to be ordered from the manufacturer we give as accurate a lead time that can be established by that company.
