Maple Plywood
Maple plywood is a well-liked hardwood used for producing furniture and other things. This very white, durable wood is tight-grained and fine, and it easily creates a smooth surface. It is a popular option for high-end furniture since the natural grain pattern is considerably more delicate than that of many other hardwoods. Butcher blocks, drums, and other commonplace items like bowling pins are also quite popular due to the material’s hardness, uniform grain, and ease of fabrication.
Similar to other hardwood plywood, maple plywood often has a less expensive hardwood core and is veneered with maple on both faces. One face is regarded as the “good” face and is meant to be seen. The interior of cabinets and doors will continue to be the other face, which will be of poorer quality. The grade of plywood when purchasing maple plywood will describe both the faces and the core type. The costs will change based on these attributes.
Maple plywood is widely used, thus it is offered with a range of core types. The veneer core and fiber core are the two most popular core types. The fiber core offers the greatest finish and is easier to process.
Maple plywood often has “plain sliced” face veneer. This indicates that the veneer is cut off the log in a manner similar to how boards are cut. In contrast, softwood plywood veneers are virtually solely rotary cut when they are made. The simplest way to see rotary cutting is to image a large lathe turning a log as a knife peels off the veneer in a manner similar to how paper towels come off the roll. For Maple and other hardwood plywood, the veneer is plain-sliced because it produces a much better grain pattern that more closely resembles the appearance of wood planks.
The face veneers on the top grades of maple plywood will be “book matched,” giving the product the impression of being built of book-matched planks joined together. Lesser grades will be slip-matched, with all the grain pointing in the same direction, rather than book-matched.
Only plywood and other veneers include a specific variety of maple, known as “Birds-Eye Maple.” This version looks like thousands of tiny knotholes, each measuring only 1/4 inch in diameter. They are not knotholes and the wood is not at all weakened by them. As a result, they are not regarded as a wood fault. It only shows up once the veneer has been rotary cut. Birds-Eye Maple, like phenolic plywood, is only used for high-end furniture because to its extreme beauty and exorbitant expense. Its cost is higher than that of regular Maple plywood.
Flame Maple, Quilt Maple, and Maple Burl are a few distinctive and highly ornamental varieties of maple. The introduction of illness into the tree is thought to be the cause of these changes, despite the fact that the exact reason is unknown and highly unpredictable. Not one of these specific differences can be found in maple plywood.

Environmental
Since the wood of maple traps carbon, it is environmentally benign and sustainable. Additionally, maple is widely available since maple trees are not threatened and are widely distributed. Even scrap wood from plywood production can be used as a reliable source of bioenergy or fuel.
