How to choose and buy plywood?

Because plywood contains more glue than other boards, it always emits a not very pleasant smell. But because it is relatively cheap, it is still very popular in the market. In order to choose better plywood, today Miaozhuang Xiaobian will tell you the tips for buying plywood.

1. Appearance inspection
When choosing plywood, you must pay attention to the fact that the plywood has two sides, front and back. Carefully observe whether the wood grain of the plywood is clear, and carefully check the front of the plywood. The front of the plywood is smooth and not rough. It is a high-quality plywood that is flat and smooth. Of course, in addition to this, the plywood should not have defects such as damage, bruises, hard scratches, scars, and no degumming.
2. Check the joints
When purchasing, you must observe carefully. Many plywoods are made of two veneers with different textures glued together, so you must pay attention to whether the joints of the two veneers are tight and whether there are unevenness.

3. Check the adhesion
When buying plywood, you must pay attention to the adhesion of the glue in the plywood. If you choose to use plywood, then there will be glue anyway. The quality and adhesion of the glue should be good. When choosing plywood, pay attention to choosing the plywood that does not loose glue. You can try to knock on various parts of the plywood with your hands. If the sound is crisp, it means that the quality of the plywood is good; if the sound is dull, it means that the plywood has loose glue, and this type cannot be bought.
4. Pay attention to color coordination
When buying plywood, pay attention to choosing wood grain colors that are similar. It is best to coordinate the color of the board with the color of the furniture paint, so that it can reduce a lot of trouble when using it.
5. Pay attention to environmental protection indicators
This is still very important for buying plywood. No formaldehyde, no glue. Although plywood will inevitably contain formaldehyde, the processing technology and the quality of the glue used by each manufacturer are different, and the formaldehyde content released by the plywood produced in the end is also different. Choose plywood with low formaldehyde emission produced by environmentally friendly glue.
