Cypress Marine Boards

Our Marine board, also known as marine-grade plywood or marine plywood, is a type of plywood specifically designed for use in marine environments. It is engineered to withstand the harsh conditions associated with marine applications, such as exposure to moisture, saltwater, and humidity.

Marine boards are constructed using high-quality cypress wood veneers that are bonded together with waterproof adhesives. The construction process typically involves using an odd number of layers or plies, with each layer oriented perpendicular to the adjacent layer. This cross-grain orientation enhances the strength and stability of the plywood, making it resistant to warping, twisting, and delamination.

One of the distinguishing features of marine boards is their superior moisture resistance. They are often made with wood species that naturally have high levels of natural oils or resins, such as tropical hardwoods like cypress, meranti, okoume, or teak. Additionally, marine boards are treated with special preservatives and sealants to further enhance their resistance to moisture and fungal decay.

The face and back veneers of marine boards are typically of higher quality compared to standard plywood, with fewer knots and voids. This ensures a smooth and uniform surface finish, making marine boards suitable for applications where aesthetics are important, such as boat building, yacht construction, and marine cabinetry.

Marine boards are available in various thicknesses and grades to suit different applications and budget considerations. They are commonly used for constructing boat hulls, decks, bulkheads, cabinets, and furniture in marine vessels. Additionally, marine boards are also used in other high-moisture environments, such as outdoor furniture, docks, and waterfront structures.

Overall, our marine boards are valued for their durability, moisture resistance, and strength, making them an essential building material for marine and waterfront applications where performance and reliability are critical.
