Construction Details ApplePly is constructed from 1/16″ Birch innerplies using a two-step lamination process and no added urea-formaldehyde adhesive. Innerplies are first assembled into a core blank and size sanded to a metered tolerance before being overlaid with selected face and back veneers. This process insures a solid, smooth and flat product and eliminates telegraphing of imperfections in the core. The all-hardwood construction machines beautifully without tear-out or burn. Because of its machinability, ApplePly is often substituted for solid wood. ApplePly is made with soy and phenolic adhesives. Birch inner plies are imported from Poland or Russia; the product is manufactured in Eugene, Oregon. Environmental ApplePly is constructed without the use of urea-formaldehyde adhesives. It exceeds CARB 93120.12 and qualifies for LEED IEQ Credit 4.4 for Low Emitting Materials. Similarly, ApplePly is typically constructed from FSC Certified inner plies, but you must specify FSC Certified material to receive proper documentation.
