CCX/CDX Structural Plywood

CCX and CDX is a sustainable plywood product derived from pine and eucalyptus trees grown and cultivated in Uruguay according to well-managed forestry practices and offers excellent performance, aesthetic, and environmental benefits.

Competitively priced CCX/CDX panels boast top certifications, including PS 1-07 and CE 2+ EN636 certification and technical documentation.

These high-qualities, sustainable panels are designed for construction and industrial use such as packaging, shelves, partitions and decking etc.

Structural Panels are truly WBP (Exterior) light density high performance panels bonded with low emitting formaldehyde resin. The panels are made with machine composed core to guarantee the best performance value. To ensure, dimensional stability of the panel, the central ply consists of two face to face laminated veneers in case of even plies constructed Plywood.

This unique technology provides the dimensional stability in the rigorous conditions involving wide changes in the atmospheric humidity.

Effect of humidity and moisture

• Wood veneer is a living material and is subject to moisture movement according to surrounding conditions, which affects the flatness of panels. It is important to condition the panels to reach a moisture content near to the equilibrium of their permanent environment.
  
  
• Like other wood-based panel products, Birch Plywood is also hygroscopic and its dimensions change in response to a change in humidity. A change of 1% in moisture content typically increases or decreases the length, width and thickness by 1% in dimensions and thickness. It is therefore desired that the edges are sealed with a suitable acrylic paint to prevent and/or control ingress of moisture and humidity and consequent swell in thickness and expansion in dimensions.

Preservatives

Plywood is made from natural wood Veneers grown and harvested in Uruguay and is free from any toxic chemicals except resin. As is common knowledge, all wood products are susceptible to insects or termites and/or borers present in different climatic zones in the soil or buildings. It is recommended that the users are applying the coat of suitable chemicals or insecticides on all exposed surfaces of wood in addition to treatment of masonry foundations of the building where the Wood products are required to be use. Fipronil emulsified concentrate at about 3% is one such chemical and effective deterrent against insects and pests or termites in tropical climate zones. However, the application should be in accordance with manufacturers guidelines for effective results. Users own discretion in selection of appropriate chemical and its doses or frequency of such treatment is advised for satisfactory results in the light of experience gained over the period of time.
