Plywood for Home Modifications

(11 products)

In Australia, when working on home modifications —especially those involving structural supports, cabinetry, ramps, or kitchen alterations—selecting the right type of plywood is critical for safety and accessibility.

In home renovation for the aged and people with disabilities, plywood must be critically selected—only structural, properly sealed types are suitable for load-bearing or wet-area applications. For ramps and flooring, non-slip or anti-grip finishes (R13 European Standard) are essential to ensure safety and prevent falls.
