Russian Birch plywood

We have stopped buying Russian Birch plywood until the hostilities in Ukraine cease.

As an alternative, we recommend PlyLITE which is Italian Poplar plywood and is lighter and is less dense than Russian ply. It is particularly ideal for lower powered lasers. It can also be supplied with a Birch-faced veneer.
