ROCPLEX Anti Slip Plywood FAQ

Q: What is film-faced plywood?

A: Film-faced plywood is a type of plywood that is coated with a thin layer of phenolic or melamine film on both sides. This coating provides a smooth, durable surface that is resistant to moisture, abrasion, and chemicals. It is commonly used in construction for concrete formwork, shuttering, and other applications where a strong, smooth surface is required.

Q: What are the benefits of film faced plywood?

A: Film-faced plywood offers several benefits, including high durability, moisture resistance, and a smooth surface that ensures high-quality concrete finishes. It is also resistant to abrasion and chemicals, making it suitable for harsh environments. Additionally, it can be reused multiple times, providing a cost-effective solution for construction projects.

Q: Is film faced plywood waterproof?

A: Yes, film-faced plywood is designed to be highly resistant to moisture. The phenolic or melamine film coating provides a waterproof barrier, preventing the plywood from absorbing water and maintaining its structural integrity even in wet conditions. This makes it ideal for outdoor and concrete formwork applications.

Q: How thick is film faced plywood?

A: Film-faced plywood comes in various thicknesses to suit different construction needs. Common thicknesses range from 12mm to 25mm, with 18mm being a popular choice for many applications. The thickness you choose will depend on the specific requirements of your project.

Q: Which is better, MDF or MDO?

A: Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF) and Medium Density Overlay (MDO) serve different purposes. MDF is made from wood fibers bonded with resin and is typically used for interior applications such as furniture and cabinetry due to its smooth finish and ease of machining. MDO, on the other hand, is plywood with a weather-resistant resin overlay, making it more suitable for exterior applications and signage. If you need a material for outdoor or high-moisture environments, MDO is generally the better choice due to its enhanced durability and resistance to the elements.
