Plywood - Kapok plywood

Description of kapok plywood:

Kapok wood is known for being very lightweight, making it suitable for applications where weight is an important consideration.

Kapok wood generally has a medium texture and a white to pale yellow color, with fine, uniform grains.

Its density is considerably low compared to other woods, which contributes to its lightness.

Despite being lightweight, kapok wood has moderate strength, making it suitable for a variety of uses, especially in applications where strength is not the most critical factor.

Ease of work: Kapok wood is relatively easy to work with both hand and power tools. It can be cut, shaped and sanded with ease.

Uses of kapok wood:

Lightweight furniture: Due to its lightness, kapok wood is often used in the manufacture of lightweight furniture, such as shelves, chairs, coffee tables and bookcases.

Packaging: Its lightness and moderate strength make it a viable choice for packaging that requires lightweight, durable materials, such as boxes and pallets.

Civil construction: Although it is not as common as other woods due to its lightness, kapok can be used in civil construction projects for non-structural elements, such as partitions and coverings.

Panels and coverings: Due to its natural texture and color, kapok wood is also used in panels and wall coverings to add a touch of lightness and rusticity to environments.
