Waterproof Plywood
Waterproof plywood is engineered to withstand exposure to moisture, making it an ideal choice for construction, furniture, and outdoor applications where durability and longevity are crucial. Whether you’re working on concrete shuttering or moisture-prone interiors, waterproof ply sheets deliver superior performance compared to ordinary plywood.
What is Waterproof Plywood?
Waterproof plywood, also known as marine-grade ply or BWP (Boiling Water Proof) plywood, is made using high-quality hardwood veneers bonded with waterproof adhesives.
This ensures that the plywood sheets remain unaffected by water, humidity, and weather elements.
Fact: Not All Boards Are Created Equal
When it comes to shuttering and formwork, WoWBoards stand out from traditional materials like plywood and WPC in India. Made from 100% recycled plastic, WoWBoards are waterproof, durable, and reusable over 2.5 times — making them an eco-friendly alternative. Unlike plywood shuttering, they don’t absorb moisture, swell, or degrade after use. Contact us for more information about ply wood alternative.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Yes, high-grade waterproof plywood (BWP/Marine) can withstand prolonged water exposure without damage.
Absolutely. Waterproof shuttering ply is commonly used in formwork due to its strength and water resistance.
Technically, marine plywood is a type of waterproof plywood made to even higher standards, ideal for coastal or submerged conditions.
Waterproof plywood is a specially treated sheet material that resists water damage, making it ideal for areas exposed to moisture, such as bathrooms, kitchens, and outdoor applications. It is also referred to as water proof plywood or waterproof ply sheet.
Unlike regular plywood, waterproof plywood is manufactured using high-grade resins that make it resistant to water, humidity, and fungal attacks. This quality makes waterproof plywood sheets more durable and long-lasting in damp environments.
Waterproof ply boards are suitable for exterior wall cladding, marine applications, modular kitchens, and bathroom furniture. They are also used as waterproof shuttering ply in construction work that demands high moisture resistance.
Waterproof ply sheets are commonly available in sizes like 8×4 feet with thicknesses ranging from 6mm to 25mm. Always check with the supplier for custom options based on your project needs.
The water proof ply price in India varies based on brand, thickness, and grade. On average, it ranges from ₹60 to ₹110 per square foot. Prices may be higher for marine-grade or fire-retardant variants.
