Russian birch plywood, also known as Baltic birch plywood, is a high-end product commonly used as a substrate in the engineered wood flooring, hardwood plywood, furniture, and kitchen cabinet industries. Due to the sanctions imposed on Russian products, this material is no longer readily available across the US and Canada. We understand manufacturers are working quickly to identify alternatives PLYWOOD INSPECTION Testing is here to help.
Our two environmental chambers, operated at high-heat dry (4.2%EMC) and humid (15% EMC) conditions, can help you determine if a substitute product has the same level of dimensional stability as Baltic birch plywood. Paired with Janka hardness, screw withdrawal, falling ball indentation, and delamination testing, PLYWOOD INSPECTION Testing offers you a data-driven method to quickly screen alternative substrates, get your supply chain on steadier footing, and maintain the same level of product performance your customers have come to expect.
