Typical applications include internal wall panelling, furniture and fitments, interior door skins and ceiling linings. Interior plywood must not be used in exposed, wet or damp conditions.

Shopfitting
Shopfitting is an application where the use of Hoop pine is increasing rapidly. It is easily worked with conventional wood working tools and, being assured of an "A" grade face can save costly time spent trying to improve a lower grade plywood. A wide range of sizes offer cost effective alternatives when a smaller panel size than 2400x1200mm is required.
Take care in free standing applications
Plywood is a natural product that can be affected by changes in ambient weather conditions, possibly causing previously flat sheets to bow. At Austral Plywoods all precautions are taken to ensure flatness at time of dispatch, however once the plywood has left our factory we cannot guarantee sheets to remain flat unless fastened. This is particularly important where free standing kitchen/cabinet doors are concerned.
