It is vital that the panel is bent to its final shape in a continual process to minimize the risk of

NB: The final breaking point of the panels is typically approximately 1/3 the recommended radius declared above EN 636-1 (interior applications): Plywood sheets usually offer high strength levels, rigidity, and durability. Flexible plywood is different. While flexi ply is strong, it does not have the same rigidity as a standard board. This difference is due to the way that flexible plywood panels are manufactured.It’s available in two different grain direction : long grain and cross grain.

Technical details:

Because it does not require any special equipment or prior experience, the use of flexible plywood in any curved project helps reduces the cost in labour and material to a minimum. Fixing to a suitably-spaced support frame allows complicated curved shapes to be constructed with ease.

The cross grain design of flexible plywood allows for a more natural feel and flexibility of use. For example, you can easily bend your flexible plywood into a tube that is the same width as its length. It is able to hold its shape while being twisted or bent around corners, making it an ideal material for craft projects such as table runners and placemats.

What Is Flexible Plywood? 

Fixings must be closely spaced in all areas, not only along the direction of the bend but also along the straight edges. Actual spacing can be determined by testing

The uses of flexible plywood are vast and vary significantly. Some of the places where bendy plywood is applied include: There are many uses that flexible plywood can be put to, for example, it is commonly used for furniture and commercial projects such as shop fittings. Wherever curves are involved, flexible plywood is often the material of choice for many designers and architects. As with all plywood types, flexible plywood sheets have to be Type A bonded and treated with preservatives to ensure that they last longer and perform well in any condition where they used. Common uses of flexible plywood sheets To make bendy wood sheets, the crafters make thin plies. The thin plies can manipulate into various curvy forms for a wide variety of uses. Features of bendy plywoodNB: The following panels are designed for internal use only. They must not be exposed to any form of moisture. Typical minimum bending radius: Flexible bending plywood is achieved by laying each individual layer (ply), with the grain direction running the same way on all the layers that make up the panel. Because of the thinness, even with finishes, flexible plywood is susceptible to water damage over time. Bendy plywood is more convenient and much lower in cost than premade wooden forms, as this flexible plywood will hold its shape once it is glued, laminated or veneered. This ability offers significant time savings, as curves & circular designs can be produced using flexible plywood without the need for a structural skeleton or special support. Flexible plywood is a form of plywood designed to bend and curve by force. It has a breaking point, like many things. If pressured too hard, the bendy plywood will split. Usually, the flexible plywood sheets resist bending.

Flexible plywood, often referred to as bendable or flexi-ply, is a specialised type of plywood that possesses a unique property: it can be bent or curved easily without breaking or splintering.

EN 636-2 (suitable for covered exteriors):

Due to its bendy composition, flexible plywood is ideal for creating curved surfaces in furniture and decorative projects (e.g. to board a circular building post/pillar).
