What is Garnica® lightweight plywood?
Garnica® lightweight plywood is a material whose layers are primarily made from fast-growing poplar wood. Due to this composition, it is approximately 30–50% lighter than conventional plywood of equivalent thickness, while still maintaining good mechanical strength and stability.
The surfaces of lightweight plywood are smooth and uniform, making it excellent for:
- Laminating
- Veneering
- Painting
