Alder knotty hardwood plywood is an engineered wood product that blends the beauty of natural wood with the strength and stability of plywood. Here's an overview of its main features:
Composition:
Face Veneer: Made of thin layers of actual alder wood, it has a warm, light tone and a particular rustic character due to the presence of knots.
Core: Typically made of poplar, MDF, or another sturdy material to offer structural support and avoid warping.
Things to consider:
- Strength: Alder is softer than some hardwoods and may be more prone to dents and scratches, despite its high strength.
- Moisture Resistance: Not recommended for areas with heavy moisture exposure, such as bathrooms or outdoors.
- Knots: The distinctive knots offer a rustic touch, but they might be weak places that necessitate particular care when finishing.
- Grain: Alder's grain is relatively straight, with added texture from knots.
Additional points:
- Grades: Knotty alder plywood is graded based on the quantity and size of its knots. Higher grades will contain fewer and smaller knots.
- Finishing: Alder receives stains well, allowing you to achieve a range of desired effects. Sealing the wood is recommended for extra protection.
- Plywood Construction: Alder knotty plywood is often manufactured with an alder veneer on the face and back and a core made of another material such as poplar or MDF.
