CDX Douglas Fir Plywood

The Industry Standard for Structural Strength and Versatility

When your project demands a balance of economy and structural integrity, CDX Douglas Fir Plywood is the go-to choice. Engineered for durability, this "Construction Grade" plywood is designed to provide a solid foundation for subflooring, wall sheathing, and roof decking.

Product Overview

The "CDX" label refers to the grade of the veneers used:

C-Grade Face: Sanded to a relatively smooth finish, but may contain visible knots and small splits (filled or unfilled).

D-Grade Back: Allows for larger knots and knotholes, focusing on utility rather than aesthetics.

X-Exposure Rating: Bonded with exterior-grade glue, allowing the panels to withstand moisture during the construction process (though not intended for permanent exposure to the elements).

Key Features

Douglas Fir Strength: Known for its superior strength-to-weight ratio and natural resistance to decay compared to other softwoods.

Structural Stability: Cross-laminated construction minimizes shrinking, swelling, and warping.

Easy to Work With: Holds nails and screws securely; easy to cut with standard power tools.

Reliable Bonding: Exterior glue ensures the layers won't delaminate if the wood gets wet on the job site.
