Understanding Plywood Grades and Quality Standards

When choosing plywood for your construction or furniture projects, understanding the different grades and quality standards is crucial for making the right decision.

Plywood Grades Explained

Plywood is typically graded based on the quality of the face and back veneers. The most common grading system includes:

• A Grade: Smooth, paintable surface with minimal defects
• B Grade: Solid surface with some small defects
• C Grade: Some knots and defects, suitable for structural use
• D Grade: Large knots and defects, typically used for sheathing
