MONARCH 'Marine Plywood' I.S : 710

Monarch Marine Plywood IS : 710 is a plywood of high degree of strength to withstand with vigorous conditions of changes in temperature, humidity bonded with high quality of Phenol Formaldehyde synthetic resin confirming to IS : 848- 1974 for bonding of veneer of Marine plywood. The plywood is given permanent preservative treatment by a pressure impregnation plant with a minimum retention of 12 kg/m of copper chrome arsenic composition as specified in IS : 5539- 1969.

The plywood is manufactured to withstand from marine organisms, fungus and insects of borer and has greater tensile strength and much more flexibility in bending in any shape.
