Neopolitan

Plyboo Neopolitan architectural plywood is made from 100% rapidly renewable bamboo. This plywood can be cut and sanded using conventional woodworking equipment and offers excellent dimensional stability. It can also be glued or mechanically fastened using the same materials and fasteners commonly used with wood. Neopolitan bamboo plywood is sanded to 180-grit and is an open-grain material that takes finishes exceptionally well. Urea formaldehyde-free (PlybooPure) panels are now available.
