About This Product

Exquisite hardwood grains run along the length of this PureBond Maple Plywood Project Panel, featuring rotary-cut veneers from domestically grown, sustainably harvested trees that exhibit the warmth and timeless quality of natural timber. The 5-ply panel is comprised of 100% wood (no MDF or particleboard), boasting a yellow poplar core substrate layered in cross-band formation to fortify its flatness and strength. The soy-based PureBond technology is formaldehyde-free, producing a water-resistant, nontoxic decorative plywood panel that is not prone to warp like solid wood and will not emit harmful fumes like UF-constructed sheets. A cost-competitive alternative to composite panels that may degrade interior air quality over time, this hardwood plywood from Columbia Forest Products is a superb choice for DIYers and professional tradesmen looking for stellar results on their next woodworking project.

    When I purchase sanded plywood, there are tiny grooves on the face the length of the plywood. Will this plywood have those grooves? I want to make woodburning plaques but don't like the grooves. Sanding doesn't remove the grooves. Thanks

      Hi, what thickness do you recommend for linen closet shelving? And which wood would you recommend? Thanks!
      ByMar 21, 2024
      1 Answer | 
      Answer This Question

      Hi, I would definitely go with 1/2" or 3/4", depending on how much weight you will be holding with these shelves. As for the wood, that really is up to you and what would look/work best for your closet. They will all be very similar, just different faces due to the type of species you go with! If you have any more questions, you can reach me at alec.neugent@cfpwood.com.

                  Beautiful looking panel. Was hard to drill in, however, and it is heavy in weight. That is good depending on what you need it for. I used this for a craft project (used as base for paper mache dino skull--see pic), so was not used for house. I was impressed, however, with smoothness and custom cut they did for me. Shipping was fast, too!

                  Disappointing quality
                  For the price I would expect defect free appearance. This is not it. I purchased this based on other reviews but this is not what I was expecting, and unfortunately now I don't have time to return it so I'm stuck. I will not be purchasing hardwood plywood from Home Depot again.

                  I apologize for the issue. The plywood should not have the issues you describe in the review. I would like to discuss the issue with you and see what we can do to make it right. I can be reached at alec.neugent@cfpwood.com. Thanks.
                    Beautiful product
                    I use these plywood panels to build floating shelves for a pantry. It worked out great and I’m planning to use it again for other projects. The free cutting service was very accurate and a huge help!

                      Wood is ok good quality, but custom cut was completely wrong. Had to return, cutting in store is more accurate but long wait at times.

                      The finish is great. Shipping protective packaging was excellent. Have had it for over a month now

                      The 3rd party company (thru Home Depot) who sells the wood doesn’t pack the product well so it arrived pretty banged up. I had to return it 3 times. The final time I asked Home Depot to write a note to add padding to protect the wood but it was resent the same way. It was slightly dinged and I kept it bc I didn’t feel like returning it again.
