Innovative plywood uses for your architectural project

For many, plywood might be just a useful, versatile woodbased panel used for roofing, walls, or paneling. However, plywood has many factors that make it an excellent choice for innovative architectural projects. Keep reading for some ideas that will help you knock your next project out of the park.

But first, what makes our plywood unique and innovative?

Our plywood is the perfect choice for various projects because of its attractive features:

• Our panels are made from plantation poplar wood which, together with a unique manufacturing process, make them incredibly unique in terms of quality.
• For select panels, we leverage innovative treatments that improve the fire resistance of the panel, as well as its durability in demanding, humid environments.
• Depending on your specific needs, the combination of our materials provides new and improved properties such as thermal or acoustic insulation, lightness, or resistance.
• Our timber comes from managed forest plantations that ensures our products are certified as sustainable panels.

These qualities guarantee that your next architectural project will be a success using plywood. Check out some of the most innovative uses of plywood in architectural projects here:

Innovative Architectural Solutions

Useful Interior Architecture 

Plywood use in the home is incredibly popular. It has in essence become a hallmark of American design, particularly in the construction of new housing. However, its specific uses in architecture don’t have to be limited to cabinetry or ceilings and walls. 

The versatile nature of plywood panels means that you can use it to create innovative staircases with storage, partitions, bookcases, desks, or even chairs. Plywood can also be used to create sliding doors, which helps to maximize space in interior areas and its many finishes and customizable options ensure a natural beauty and a long-lasting result. 

For structural construction purposes, our unique Fireshield range can help further ensure the safety of any space. It is an ASTM E-82 Class A and CAN/ULC S102-10 certified product (the highest available for wood!) sustainably sourced from plantations, a unique product leveraged for its excellent fire-retardant properties.

Cabinetry/Built-in Furniture

When building your next home or office, cabinetry and built-in furniture are essential to maximizing space. Frequently, cabinetry can be dull and identical, which doesn’t showcase the true beauty of the wood. If you’re looking to renovate your kitchen or cabinets, consider using plywood. With a number of finishes and hardwood options, in addition to the customizable nature of plywood panels, this is the ideal selection. 

Dynamic Ceilings 

Gone are the days of boring, white ceilings that do nothing to enhance a home’s natural beauty. With plywood, you can create unique and innovative designs that open up your space, giving it a unique and natural feel. Additionally, the acoustic insulation feature of our ultralight panels can also be produced to maximize soundproofing, allowing for both practical and stunning, dynamic ceilings. 

Transformative Walls 

If you’re looking to truly transform your next project or space, using plywood panels for walls can do just that. Plywood’s many properties, including being lightweight, resistant, and durable, will leave your walls looking natural and untouched over time. Additionally, we also have CE2+ structural certified panels, suitable for structural use.
