Welde Bi-Ply HEXA (BIRCH/POPLAR COMBI)

Welde Bi-Ply HEXA is a combination of birch and poplar plywood with a wear-resistant phenolic coating and a special hexagonal (Hexa) surface structure. It is designed for applications requiring high mechanical strength, wear resistance, and operational safety.

Compared to standard poplar plywood, the Bi-Ply construction provides significantly greater strength and load-bearing capacity while maintaining an optimal weight.

Description

The panels are manufactured by cross-bonding birch and poplar veneer layers with waterproof phenolic resin.
The bonding complies with the requirements of EN 314-2, Class 3 – the highest class for exterior applications.

  • High resistance to wear and scratching  
  • Taber Test (wear resistance): up to 700 revolutions

 

Surface 

Face side (Hexa structure):

  • Brown phenolic coating – 240 g/m²  
  • Hexagonal (Hexa) texture  

Back side:

  • Brown phenolic coating – 120 g/m²  
  • Smooth surface  
  • Other coatings or colours available upon request  
  • The edges are sealed with brown water-based acrylic paint
