There are two terms for plywood that you can use for internal wall lining and ceiling lining: interior plywood and plywood cladding.
Whether arranged horizontally or vertically, plywood for internal wall lining emphasises the wall or the ceiling surface of a room and transforms its appearance.
What is Interior Plywood?
Just as the name suggests, interior grade plywood is most suitable for applications to the internal wall lining in homes and offices.
It is your first choice for non-structural indoor applications which need an aesthetically pleasing finish.
Interior plywood is great for use in making indoor furniture, inner roof linings, ceilings, interior claddings, and walls.
We can make interior plywood with slots and perforations for specific acoustic properties. See our Sonapanel range of acoustic plywood for details.
Using Interior Plywood for Your Internal Wall Lining
Unlike exterior plywood which uses Phenol resin, interior plywood uses UF (Urea Formaldehyde) resin which does not counter moisture effectively.
It makes interior plywood prone to water damage. While decorative laminates using melamine or Phenol can increase its water resistance considerably, it is still most suitable to interior applications.
While storing and handling interior plywood, make sure that you keep it dry and under cover. The cover should not be tight and must not exhibit condensation.
