Baltic Birch Plywood is unlike traditional plywood you're used to seeing. It is manufactured in the Baltic region of northeastern Europe using solid one-piece Birch veneer for each ply. The plys are cross-banded (alternating grain direction) and held together with strong interior grade glue. This results in a plywood that not only looks good but has exceptional stability and strength. Our Baltic Birch Plywood is top grade without voids or glue pockets. No added formaldehyde.
