Ficem Board is a light weight fiber cement board which is immune to permanent moisture damage.

Marine Plywood

Many Australians grow up with the belief that Marine Plywood is a 'special' product made with secret adhesives that make it virtually indestructible. This is an urban myth.

The adhesive (glue) that is used to bond the veneers of Marine Plywood together is the same as any other structural plywood that is manufactured in Australia.

Marine Plywood is designed to absorb these forces due to the fact that this plywood is the closest to solid wood. In fact it is better than solid wood with defects having been graded out.

What is the difference between bwp and bwr plywood?

bwp = boiling water proof bwr = boiling water resistant THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE !!!!!!!!!! Source: http://blog.positiveindians.in/plywood/bwp-vs-bwr-grade-plywood.html The acronym BWP stands for 'Boiling Water Proof', While BWR grade means 'Boiling Water Resistant' plywood. The general naming convention used in the industry is that BWR grading is used for marking plywood, while its counterpart BWP grade is used in the case of Blockboards. Technically speaking there is not much difference between these two terms. The quality tests on BWR grade plywood sheets, as well as BWP grade blockboards are quite similar. The glue used in the construction of both these types is synthetic plastic resin (phenol formaldehyde) which is considered better than Urea formaldehyde resins used in commercial MR grade (Moisture resistant) plywood sheets. If a board is marked with BWR it means that it is a waterproof exterior grade plywood, and if it is marked BWP then it should ideally mean that it is an exterior grade waterproof block board. Both BWP and BWR grades are widely used in the construction of furniture that is likely to get some exposure to water. Hence it is a preferred choice of material for making kitchen cabinets and other kitchen furniture. For quick difference between plywood and block board: Plywood -is thin sheets of veneer stuck together Blockboard - is blocks of solid softwood covered by sheets of veneer on both sides Or you can get it in detail at : http://blog.positiveindians.in/plywood/plywood-vs-blockboard.html
