The process of plywood lamination uses hard pressing equipment and adhesives to permanently attach a number of sheets together. Homeowners used to have their plywood laminated after it was installed in their homes for a long time. But now they can acquire plywood that has already been laminated, if they choose pre-laminated plywood.

Before we get into why pre-laminated plywood should be preferred over standard plywood, let’s understand where these laminated ply boards are used. 

What are the applications of laminated plywood? 

Laminated plywood has a plethora of applications. 

  • It can be used for both interior and exterior furniture and construction
  • It can be used to make doors, partitions, false ceilings, sheathing, etc. 
  • Special laminated boards are available for billboards, electricity boxes, and other applications. 
  • Laminated wood is also used for interior decoration by huge companies, hospitals, airports, banks, hotels, etc.

As you can see, one can benefit a great deal from laminated plywood boards. Now getting to the main question as to why you should get pre-laminated plywood rather than have your furniture and design work laminated after it’s finished?

Why opt for pre-laminated plywood? 

  • Using pre-laminated plywood sheets saves a lot of time, money, and work compared to manually bonding laminates over plywood.
  • When you use pre-laminated plywood, you get a better notion of how the finished product will appear and feel.
  • When browsing through pre-laminated plywood, you can choose from a range of thicknesses. For example, AK Plywood offers pre-laminated ply boards with 0.7, 0.8 and 1mm laminates.

Please Note: If you already have a choice of laminate in mind you can have it pre-laminated on your plyboards before using it!

Overall, pre-laminated plywood is a good investment and is worth considering. Today, all the major plywood manufacturers are producing pre-laminated plywood sheets to eliminate the hassle of manually glueing the laminate to the plywood. 

However, you should be mindful to not confuse particle board with pre-laminated plywood. Pre-laminated plywood is not as widely available as particle boards. Therefore, you must be cautious when purchasing pre-laminated plywood.
