Product Details

The beauty and warmth of natural hardwood shines through on these PureBond Red Oak Plywood panels from Columbia Forest Products. Assembled using a soy-based PureBond technology, these 3/4 in. x 4 ft. x 8 ft. sheets feature American-grown timber throughout with decorative red oak face and back veneers that produce stellar results on DIY woodworking projects. Using a proper saw blade, these sheets can be custom-cut to suit an assortment of carpentry applications, including construction of furniture, shelves, bookcases, built-in cabinets, media centers, headboards and more. This formaldehyde-free plywood is a cost-competitive alternative to potentially health-hazardous UF boards that may release air-degrading fumes over time. It's as exquisite and robust as solid hardwood but without the expense and heft.
  • Hardwood plywood is assembled with smooth, patch-free red oak face and back veneers
  • PureBond hardwood plywood is an environmentally friendly, cost-competitive alternative to panels manufactured with urea formaldehyde (UF), which may degrade air quality over time
  • Contains 100% natural wood bonded with a food-grade soy-based adhesive that does not emit toxic air contaminants
  • Decorative top and bottom veneers, measuring approximately 1/42 in. thick, exhibit the beauty and timeless quality of natural hardwood and are suitable for painting or staining
  • Water-resistant composition has a higher moisture tolerance than UF panels and is less likely to warp than solid wood
  • Allow panel to acclimate to interior climate conditions for several days before customizing - for interior applications only
  • For best cutting results, use an 80-tooth (or greater) table saw blade intended for sheet goods or a carbide-tipped circular saw plywood blade
  • Common: 3/4 in. x 4 ft. x 8 ft.; actual: 0.703 in. x 48 in. x 96 in.
  • Direction of the grain is the length of panel

    Q:would this be ok to use as a bar counter top?

    Answer This Question

    A:  Hi, I would normally say yes, but with this being a bar countertop, there are chances that it will get wet, so I don't believe I would recommend this for that use. Thanks.

    by|Jun 9, 2023

      A:  As long as you coat it with a high quality finish. I would recommend using a two part epoxy finish like Dr.Resin

          Q:Can you use this as a subfloor under new vinyl flooring?
          by|Mar 17, 2023
          2 Answers
          Answer This Question

          A:  Sanded Oak 3/4 plywood can be used as an underlayment under vinyl as long as the edges are securely fastened and the joints are filled with a floor filler. However it is very expensive and 1/4 mahogany will accomplish the same goal and is much much less expensive

          by|Mar 21, 2023

            A:  Hello, Would not recommend for floor applications. The red oak veneer on the panel is thin and not designed to stand up to wear and tear of a floor application. For floor applications the veneer should be thicker. Thanks.

              Absolute Garbage Veneer
              The veneer on this tears out the moment you take a blade to it. I used a table saw, mitre saw with fine tooth finishing blade, and jigsaw fine tooth blade on the stuff. The veneer just crumbles off at the edges the moment you touch it. I think it's glued on with a kid's glue stick. Even 220 grit sandpaper causes it to fall off at the edges. It taught me a valuable lesson: don't buy plywood from Home Depot. This stuff is overpriced garbage and they know it.

              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.
                Sandable and paintable. Beautiful texture.
                It was easy to work with drill and router. Amazing final texture!!

                  Plywood is delaminating. Poor quality. Home Depot will not refund.

                    PureBond or PureGarbage. You decide, see pictures
                    Check out the picture ... every single sheet looks that way, both sides. Looks like maybe they sanded threw the oak veneer. Kinda ridiculous it ever left the mill in that state. Absolutely no way to use in any stain grade project.

                      Really Nice
                      We used this plywood to construct a Murphy bed and some bookcases with great results. Most of the pieces are entirely usable (which was important for the face of the cabinet) and the faces don't require much sanding (just a quick run with 220 grit paper get's it really smooth). One thing to note is long pieces may need additional structure to support keep them straight and take care handling the pieces to protect the edges and veneer; but, this is now our go to material for cabinets and shelving.

                        Terrible Product Do not buy!
                        We purchased a 4 x 8 sheet of this oak veneer plywood to build a couple of pieces of furniture for my sons dorm room. We quickly discovered how thin the oak veneer was on this product. Unless you are willing to omit final sanding altogether or use only the lightest touch, it is very easy to sand through the veneer and into the lamination beneath. Additionally, we found numerous voids in the lamination beneath the oak veneer after the paper thin oak laminate simply broke off into the hole. We were forced to use wood filler because we were too far along in the project but it looks terrible. I will never make that mistake again

                          This product barely worked for us, but not if you need both sides visible. Lots of holes in inner plys so if you need finished ply with visible edges may not be for you. We wanted to stain but had to end up painting most of the plywood.

                            Thin veneer with imperfections
                            lots of imperfections typically on one side. so if you are building something where both sides are exposed, this will be a bad choice. The dimensions and weight makes it difficult to screen through the pile at store, if you are by yourself. if HD does a quality check on their shelf stock, this would be a great help for the customers

                              The product was somewhat a disappointment. The finished product came out good but there was issues with the plywood that I was trying to avoid by buying it out of the same bundle. The three pieces took stain differently. It took a lot of time to match final stain color between the pieces. There were voids in the core. This made joining some of the pieces a bit interesting. I was able to finish the project with satisfactory results and used it this past week after final install.
