Introduction To Plywood
Plywood is made from an odd number of constructional
veneers bonded face to face with the grain running
in alternate directions (cross bonding) it then goes
in between the shelves of a large hydraulic press,
these shelves are heated and squeezed together
tightly putting great pressure on the plies, the
heat dries the glue and sticks the plies together.
Then the plywood is trimmed and can be sanded to
give a smoother finish.
The reason for using an odd number of veneers is
that the sheet of plywood must be balanced as near
as possible to be stable. Plywood can still twist
even when it is balanced because no two veneers are
completely identical and the tensions are never
perfectly balanced. Another factor that can cause
warping is the wetting or heating of one face of the
ply; this will cause the veneer to expand or
contract, both of which can pull the board out of
true.
It shrinks, warps, twists and swells less than
ordinary wood and has great resistance to splitting
at the ends, this permits carpenters to fasten
plywood sheets with nails or screws close to the
edges. The outside veneer is called face and back
and the center ply or veneer is called core. The
quality of the plywood is defined according to its
face and back veneer grade. The simplest plywood is
made of three layers of veneer, with the grain
direction of the two outer sheets being parallel.
The greater the number of veneers the stronger the
plywood.
Plywood's main advantage is that by gluing together
an odd number of layers of veneer, a material that
is lightweight and workable, yet rigid and strong
can be obtained. Plywood can also be cut to exact
sizes worked into curved shapes and produced in
large panels with a smooth surface. Expensive woods
can be used for the face because only thin sheets
are needed, plastic or metal faces are sometimes
used to provide surfaces that resist starching.
Uses Of Plywood
Plywood is used chiefly for floors, to line roofs
and walls, and for wall paneling. It is particularly
suited for the forms used for shaping concrete for
homes, buildings, bridges and dam foundation.
Carpenters and cabinet makers find wide use for
plywood in furniture, cabinets and counters.
Manufactures use it in boats, lorry trailers, office
equipment, packing cases, trains, cars, road signs,
sporting goods and other products.
WOOD PANEL
Chippel Overseas Supplies Pte. Ltd. has been honored
to be appointed by some of the reputable

Indonesia, China etc. to market their various wood
panels eg. Raw Plywood, Block Board, Lamin Board,

and other species of tropical wood which are first
defibered, so as to loosen up the wood fibers from
their original structure, and later reconstituted
and pressed at high pressure and high temperature.
The result is a top strength, uniformed sheet to be
humidfied and processed further to the finished
desired size.

Introduction To Teak
BOARDS DECKING GARDEN DECKING
Teak--- (Tectona grandis) is considered by mariners
to be the world's most valuable and versatile
hardwood. The rare beauty of teak, its rich golden
brown luster, decorative grain and unique properties
or strength, stability, resistance to wear have made
it the most demanded wood for marine use. Teak is
known as the King of Woods. There are many uses for
teak and very few substitutes.
Teak is a pillar of the shipbuilding industry. Teak
has been used on aircraft carriers, tall mast
graceful clipper ships, exquisite cruise ships,
refined yachts, dinghies as well as rugged
workboats. For centuries teak decks have been the
paragon of excellence but few people know all of the
remarkable benefits and applications of this unique
wood. On the exterior teak decks are specified
because teak is the only wood that can withstand the
harsh dramatic changes of the sea water and broiling
sun and does not split, crack or warp.
The decks of the Titanic were covered with teak. The
wood is as good today as the fateful night, 15 April
1912, when she sank. The heartwood was just as
durable and golden brown as the day the tree was
felled.
FITCHES PLANKS POSTS
In boat interiors where there is high humidity teak
is ideal for doors, hatches and cabinetry because it
does not warp, twist or expand which could make
opening doors and drawers difficult or impossible.
Most woods when in contact with water will readily
crack. Teak, because of natural oils has a very low
coefficient of expansion and contraction so it
remains stable even under months in the hot sun or
submersed in ocean waters. Teak has high silica
content.
Silica is sand which gives traction to those walking
on a wet teak deck. Most of us have stepped on a wet
oak or pine plank and had our feet go flying out
from underneath us but this will not happen with
teak. In a marine environment metals corrode easily
turning woods in contact with the metal black with
oxidation but not so with teak by virtue of its
natural oils. Teak needs no paint or varnish and
over time will develop a silver gray patina.
Severe winter snow storms, monsoon rains, tropical
heat and even the scorching dry conditions of
deserts do not diminish the strength of teak. Teak
has natural resins called technoquinines that
naturally repel termites, marine borers and resist
rot. Teak is a relatively easy wood to machine or
work with hand tools. Craftsmen and sculptors revere
its attributes. There is no other wood or man-made
material that has the versatility of teak.
Teak is a precious resource. Teak is probably the
best-protected commercial species in the world. Teak
is not a tropical rainforest species. It grows
sparsely in mixed deciduous forests. Many companies
are anxious to invest in teak plantations because
potential returns are enormous.
