Phenolic Film Faced Plywood is used for concrete shuttering where a smooth face to the concrete, when set, is also required. A sheet of 120gm/m2 phenol impregnated paper is hot pressed on to each surface of the plywood to provide a very smooth and non-absorbent panel. After pressing the edges are also sealed to prevent moisture ingress. If cutting is required the exposed edges should be sealed with a rubber based paint in order to prevent any swelling.

Key Features

• Ultra smooth phenolic film faced surface (as pictured) for concrete shuttering
• Multi strike with careful handling up to 20 strikes are possible
• High resistance to water and chemicals
• Can be cut with hand or machine tools

Application
Primarily designed to enable multi strike smooth faced concrete sections Phenol Film Faced Plywood has a high resistance to chemicals and water, as such it could also be used for furniture in chemical laboratories.
