The First to Be 303 BWP Certified in Kerala & Karnataka

Until recently, no manufacturer in Kerala or Karnataka had achieved this elite certification. The process of becoming 303 BWP certified plywood involves stringent audits, in-house quality controls, and the use of high-grade raw materials. AK Apple Plywood’s success in obtaining this license reflects its industry leadership and the cutting-edge manufacturing techniques it employs.

This also positions the company as a regional pioneer, setting the benchmark for waterproof plywood in Kerala and reshaping expectations across the southern market.

 

Why This Matters for Builders and Homeowners?

Choosing 303 BWP plywood ensures long-term durability, safety, and peace of mind—especially in regions like Kerala and Karnataka, where climatic conditions often bring high humidity and heavy rainfall. This plywood is:

  • Highly water-resistant: Withstands boiling water and prolonged moisture exposure.

  • Structurally strong: Built with superior bonding for extended life.

  • Termite and borer resistant: Offers enhanced protection for your interiors.

By securing the plywood license in Karnataka and Kerala, AK Apple Plywood guarantees that its products are not only strong but also officially recognized for their performance under the most demanding conditions.

 

Empowering the Local Market

This achievement has broader implications for the regional economy. Previously, most builders had to rely on plywood imported from other states to meet BWP standards. Now, with a certified local manufacturer, there’s easier access to high-quality materials without the added cost of shipping and middlemen.

It’s a boost for local craftsmanship, and a win for eco-conscious builders looking to reduce their carbon footprint by sourcing locally.
