Manufactured from sustainably sourced materials, this A1-grade plywood is suitable for a wide variety of projects, crafts and hobbies. Proudly made in the USA, this plywood features solid Hevea (Rubberwood) veneer cores that boast superior fastener-holding power, sanded-smooth veneers both front and back, and closed-grain wood veneers that take a finish beautifully. This plywood is graded as A1 – the letter A represents the face grade, and the number 1 represents the back grade. Simply put, it is the highest back grade possible – no large knots, but there may be some color variation or small, tight knots.
