4X8FT PLYWOOD
Plywood is one of the materials with exceptionally diverse applications. It can be used as construction formwork, product packaging, pallets for the marine industry, or furniture manufacturing. One of the most popular types of boards is the 4×8ft Plywood board. Let’s learn about this type of board through the article below.

➦ What is 4×8ft plywood?
4×8ft plywood stands for “4-foot x 8-foot plywood”. People used to call plywood by its default size. Where the foot is the international unit of measurement, the international foot is defined as equal to 0.3048 meters (equivalent to 304.8 millimeters). The international standard notation for the foot is “ft,” so size of 4ft x 8ft would equate to a size of 1220mm x 2440mm.
➦ Advantages:
Like other types of boards, 4×8ft plywood is made from veneered boards, which are bonded together by a special glue. Then it is pressed and dried at high temperature, so it has many advantages compared to natural wood, such as:
-
Good heat and water resistance, no warping or shrinking in
-
Smooth flat surface, easy to use, water-resistant, and high bending
-
High-quality elasticity, smooth surface, anti-adhesion, saving construction cost and time.
-
Easy to use, easy to manufacture into products with high aesthetics.
➦ Classification:
There are 4 main types of 4×8ft plywood in terms of surface level: A, B, C, and D. Each board has two sides and can be used simultaneously with two levels, such as AB and BC. The first letter refers to the front veneer. The second letter refers to the back. Plywood, plywood in Vietnam, is often classified by surface.
- Grade A: This is the highest quality plywood surface and costs the most. The board’s surface is sanded flat, smooth, and can be painted directly.
- Grade B: This surface type is slightly less smooth than grade A. The surface may have minor defects that have been corrected. Type B may also have some knots 2-3cm in diameter or some minor flaws.
- Grade C: The surface has an uneven color of 2-3cm diameter knots.
- Grade D: This is the cheapest plywood. Surface defects have not been corrected, with knots up to 5cm.
➦ Specifications:
The size of plywood is essential when choosing to buy. There are many different plywood sizes available. However, the most commonly used is 4ft x 8 ft. You can also cut into smaller sizes according to your needs.
When talking about specifications in addition to dimensions, the thickness of the plywood also needs to be considered. The thickness of plywood is more or less related to its durability and is the most important thing when buying plywood. Depending on the thickness, plywood will be suitable for each different project. There are many types of thickness, but the most popular are 8mm, 5mm, and 10mm.
