Plywood
Plywood is an engineered wood made from multiple layers of thin veneer that are adhered together. Each adjacent layer is rotated by up to 90 degrees to reduce the risk of splitting when nailed in at the edges. This 'cross-graining' technique also improves strength, stability and prevents warping, making it an excellent general-purpose construction panel. At B&Q we only buy responsibly sourced wood. All of our plywood sheets are CE and FSC certified.

Plywood is a versatile and durable material widely used in construction, furniture making, and DIY projects. Composed of thin layers of wood veneer glued together, it offers strength, stability, and resistance to warping, making it an excellent choice for a range of applications. Plywood sheets are available in various thicknesses, such as 18mm plywood, 12mm ply, and 9mm plywood, allowing you to select the right option for your specific needs. For flooring projects, plywood flooring and plywood floorboards provide a robust and reliable base, offering excellent load-bearing capabilities and ensuring a smooth, even surface for final finishes. Its versatility makes it suitable for subfloors, structural layers, or as a finish itself when treated and sealed appropriately.
Plywood is also available in different grades, from durable, high-quality hardwood varieties to more affordable softwood options, catering to both decorative and structural purposes. Its ability to be cut, shaped, and painted makes it ideal for creating custom designs in furniture, panelling, and cabinetry. Whether you’re building a new floor, crafting bespoke furniture, or tackling a DIY project, plywood is a practical, cost-effective, and long-lasting material that delivers outstanding results for both professionals and hobbyists alike.
