What is shuttering plywood used for?
Shuttering plywood is commonly used for temporary construction work where a cost-effective sheet is more important than a decorative finish. Typical uses include concrete formwork, site hoarding, temporary boarding, protection and general building tasks.
This product is made from Elliottis pine, so it also sits within the wider softwood plywood category.
12mm or 18mm shuttering plywood?
| Thickness | Typical choice |
|---|---|
| 12mm shuttering plywood | Lighter temporary boarding, hoarding and formwork where the support and project design suit a thinner sheet. |
| 18mm shuttering plywood | Jobs where a thicker, stiffer softwood plywood sheet is required, subject to the support and project specification. |

Is this structural plywood?
Do not assume structural classification from the term shuttering plywood alone. Suitability for load-bearing work depends on the actual grade, certification, support, loading and project design. Where a structural plywood specification is required, check the required standard before ordering.
