Blockboard

Blockboard is a panel with a solid wood batten core packed tightly together and faced with veneer on both sides. This construction produces a panel that is strong yet lightweight, ideal for large furniture pieces that are prone to warping when other materials are used.

  • Solid wood core — strong and lightweight
  • Minimal warping over long spans
  • Flat surface, easy to finish
  • Ideal for doors, tabletops, and partitions

Uses of blockboard

Blockboard is ideal for door leaves, long tabletops, partitions, and shelving because it does not warp easily over wide spans. Its light weight makes installation easy, while its flat surface is ready for a variety of finishes.

  • Lightweight yet sturdy door leaves
  • Long-span tabletops and partitions
  • Stable wall shelving

Difference from plywood

Unlike plywood, which is built entirely from veneer layers, blockboard uses a solid wood core, making it lighter for thick panels. When a thick panel needs to stay light, blockboard is often the choice; for all-around strength, plywood is superior.
