phenolic—WPBP. Face and back are a minimum of 1.5mm thick with no
voids or patches in the surface or core. All laminates are rotary-cut Okoume
throughout. The careful selection of all layers, thickness, face and back
panels and special preservative insures you of a panel that is superior to any
other Okoume plywood on the market.
