Black Film Faced Plywood is a durable construction-grade plywood coated with black phenolic film on both sides. The waterproof surface resists moisture, abrasion, and chemicals, making it ideal for concrete formwork and demanding construction projects.
Made from high-strength wood veneers bonded with WBP glue, it offers strong load-bearing capacity, smooth surfaces for clean concrete finishes, and easy release after pouring. Lightweight yet strong, it is also suitable for scaffolding, flooring underlayment, temporary structures, and other heavy-duty applications. Its resistance to warping and delamination ensures long-term reliability, while the smooth film surface allows for multiple reuses, making it an efficient and cost-effective choice for contractors and large-scale construction projects.
Black Film Faced Plywood is a high-strength engineered plywood panel coated with a durable black phenolic film on both sides. Designed specifically for concrete formwork and construction applications, this plywood is manufactured by bonding multiple layers of hardwood or mixed wood veneers with waterproof adhesives under high pressure and temperature.
The phenolic film surface provides excellent resistance to moisture, abrasion, and chemicals, ensuring a smooth concrete finish and allowing multiple reuses in construction projects. Due to its superior durability, stability, and load-bearing capacity, black film faced plywood is widely used in building formwork systems, slab formwork, wall formwork, bridge construction, and other demanding structural applications.
This plywood is available in various thicknesses, core materials, and film qualities to meet different construction standards and project requirements.

1. Durable Phenolic Film Surface
Both sides are covered with high-quality black phenolic film that provides excellent wear resistance and protects the panel from moisture and damage.
2. Waterproof Bonding
Manufactured with waterproof adhesives such as WBP (Water Boiled Proof) phenolic glue, ensuring strong bonding and resistance to water exposure.
3. High Load-Bearing Capacity
Cross-laminated veneer construction provides excellent strength and structural stability, making it ideal for heavy concrete loads.
4. Smooth Concrete Finish
The smooth film surface allows easy release from concrete and produces a clean, uniform concrete surface.
5. Reusable Formwork Panel
Designed for multiple reuses in construction projects when properly maintained.
6. Edge Sealing Protection
Edges are sealed with waterproof paint to prevent water penetration and extend service life.
7. Anti-Slip Surface Options
Available with anti-slip patterns for safe use in construction platforms or scaffolding.
✔ Long Service Life
The phenolic film coating protects the plywood surface, allowing the panels to be reused multiple times in concrete formwork.
✔ Excellent Water Resistance
Waterproof glue and sealed edges prevent swelling, delamination, and deformation.
✔ Cost-Effective Construction Material
Reusable panels reduce overall construction costs compared to traditional timber formwork.
✔ High Structural Strength
Multi-layer veneer structure provides strong load-bearing performance for heavy-duty applications.
✔ Easy Handling and Installation
Panels are lightweight compared to solid timber and easy to cut, drill, and install.
✔ Consistent Concrete Appearance
The smooth surface helps produce flat and aesthetically pleasing concrete structures.
1. Poplar Core Film Faced Plywood
Made with poplar veneer core. Lightweight and cost-effective, suitable for standard construction projects.
2. Hardwood Core Film Faced Plywood
Manufactured with hardwood veneers for higher density and strength, ideal for heavy-duty formwork.
3. Eucalyptus Core Film Faced Plywood
High-density eucalyptus core provides excellent durability and higher reuse times.
4. Combi Core Film Faced Plywood
A combination of hardwood and poplar veneers, balancing strength and cost.

Q1: What is film faced plywood mainly used for?
Film faced plywood is primarily used for concrete formwork and shuttering in construction projects. It provides a smooth surface for concrete casting and can be reused multiple times.
Q2: Is film faced plywood waterproof?
Yes. Film faced plywood is manufactured with WBP (Water Boiled Proof) phenolic glue and coated with waterproof phenolic film, making it highly resistant to moisture and water exposure.
Q3: How many times can film faced plywood be reused?
The reuse times depend on the core material, film quality, and site handling. High-quality eucalyptus or full birch core panels can typically be reused many times under proper maintenance.
Q4: What is the difference between poplar core and eucalyptus core film faced plywood?
Poplar core plywood is lighter and more economical, suitable for general construction. Eucalyptus core plywood is denser and stronger, offering better load-bearing capacity and longer service life.
Q5: Does film faced plywood produce a smooth concrete finish?
Yes. The phenolic film surface ensures a smooth and uniform concrete finish, reducing the need for additional plastering or surface treatment.
