Marine plywood manufactured to the Australian standard AS/NZS 2272 is regarded as the highest plywood grade available.  Marine plywood conforming to the standard uses only “A” grade veneers from a designated marine species (i.e. Araucaria – hoop pine) and has an “A” bond glue system, sometimes referred to as WBP (water boil proof).

Designated marine species such as Araucaria (hoop pine) are selected based on density, bending strength, impact resistance and surface finishing characteristics.

Austral ‘O’ grade marine plywood (AS/NZS 2272) is also available and recommended as a cost effective solution for applications where the aesthetic of the face veneers is not critical, such as applications where the plywood is overlaid, painted or fibre glassed. 

Note that most "marine plywood" available today lay claim only to a "marine bond" but fail the other requirements of a true marine plywood. Austral Plywoods is the only manufacturer of marine plywood that complies with Australian standard AS/NZS 2272.

All plywood by Austral Plywoods is manufactured with a "multiply" core as standard.

For a tough, waterproof and slip resistant floor panel, consider Austral CrocPly, which comes with a multiply Marine core as standard.
