- Material: Birch plywood is a type of engineered wood made up of multiple layers of wood veneer that are glued together to form a single sheet. It is made of birch wood, a type of hardwood that is strong and durable.
- Wide applications: Birch plywood is often used for furniture, cabinetry, and other woodworking projects. It is also used for flooring, decorative walls, shelving, and other interior design projects. Birch plywood is also an excellent choice for laser cutter projects. Its strength and stability make it an ideal material for laser cutting and engraving. Additionally, birch plywood produces a clean, precise finish with minimal scorching or warping.
-
Attention: A slight warp or deform may be caused by transportation and weather. Please allow a ± 1/2 inch variation for length and width sizes and a ±1/50 inch variation in thickness.
-
Attention: It is recommended to always run a test before performing the actual laser cutting project. When laser cutting thick cherry plywood, it's advised to use high power and multiple-pass at a high-speed setting to reduce laser dwell time and heat-affected area to minimize the burning edge. For your ease, we've prepared this ultimate guide to laser-cutting plywood.

What is birch plywood?
Birch plywood is a type of engineered wood made up of multiple layers of wood veneer that are glued together to form a single sheet. It is made of birch wood, a type of hardwood that is strong and durable.
How is birch plywood made?
Birch plywood is made by layering thin sheets of birch veneer, which are then glued together with adhesive. The grain of the adjacent layers is usually perpendicular to each other, which helps to strengthen the plywood and make it more resistant to warping. The layers are then pressed together and cured in a hot press, which helps to bond the layers together. Once the plywood is cured, it is then cut into the desired sizes and shapes.
