Product Details
Made from soft hardwoods (Poplar/Gum) or Southern Yellow Pine, these durable, APA-rated Plytanium PlyFrame panels provide a quality, easy-to-work-with material. Special core construction is designed to limit core gaps to 1/2″ or less to improve the quality of your product line – and custom inner plies with two or three-piece centers grip screws securely for added strength. The consistent quality of these solid panels reduces waste and allows maximum utilization of each panel.

FAQs
Plywood panels classified as “Exterior” are suitable for applications subject to long-term exposure to weather or moisture.
Yes, plywood can be painted using one coat of acrylic latex primer and at least two coats of acrylic latex paint. Oil-based paints are not recommended.
Yes, Georgia-Pacific plywood and OSB panels only use moisture resistant adhesives that contain no added urea formaldehyde resins, and are therefore exempt from U.S. EPA and California formaldehyde regulations due to their very low emission rates.
Plywood and OSB panels from Georgia-Pacific are made from wood sourced through a system that is third-party certified to the Sustainable Forestry Initiative® procurement standard.
No, span ratings for similar thicknesses are the same.
Class III or C
