Calibrated Plywood
“Prestige” Calibrated plywood is manufactured using a two-way pressing system. Assembled core veneers are pressed in a hydraulic press and then sanded in the imported calibrated machine where the uneven thickness of the core veneer becomes flat after sanding. After getting a uniform size panel, it is laminated with a gurjan face veneer and again sanded with a wide belt sander to get the perfect finish. Prestige Calibrated plywood is ideal for the lamination of mica. Calibration is done for the plywood with both IS:303 and IS:710 specifications.
