No, we do not produce marine plywood (i.e., truly waterproof plywood). We only produce moisture-resistant plywood (FSF), which can be used outdoors in air humidity above 85%, provided it is covered with a film and the edges are painted. The price list for moisture-resistant FSF plywood can be requested from our managers through the feedback form on our website.
For furniture manufacturing, high-density LDPB is preferable. It ensures stronger products that can be assembled and disassembled multiple times, with screws holding securely.
Impact of LDPB density:
- Strength and Durability: Higher density LDPB provides greater mechanical strength, load resistance, and durability, which is crucial for furniture subject to intensive use.
- Moisture Resistance: Dense LDPB has lower porosity, reducing the likelihood of moisture penetration and swelling, thus improving the product's moisture resistance.
- Hardware Attachment: Higher density allows for better retention of fasteners (screws, nails), preventing them from loosening or pulling out over time.
- Geometric Stability: A dense material structure ensures better geometric stability, preventing warping and sagging.
Benefits of High-Density MFC:
- Surface Quality: Fewer defects and chips during cutting and processing due to the more uniform material structure.
- Durability of the Finish: Better adhesion of films and decorative coatings increases the lifespan of the decorative layer and prevents peeling.
- Environmental Safety: Lower porosity and improved moisture resistance help prevent the release of formaldehyde and other harmful substances, enhancing the product's environmental characteristics.
- Aesthetics: A smoother and more uniform surface ensures high-quality finishing and an aesthetically pleasing appearance of the furniture.
High-density LDPB, with its improved physical and mechanical properties, is the preferred material for producing high-quality and durable furniture.
Both FC and FSF plywood can be used as a subfloor in residential premises. However, in terms of environmental safety, FSF plywood has lower formaldehyde emissions.
For more information, please refer to the article "What is the difference between WBP and MR plywood?".
You can order MFC decor samples through the nearest Lamarty dealer or via the feedback form on our website. Please provide your contact information and our manager will contact you to finalize the order details.
In the units you mentioned, only particleboard (measured by the perforator method) is evaluated. For E0.5 emission class, the formaldehyde content in 100 g of absolutely dry board should not exceed 4 mg, with an actual value of 3.8 mg. LDPB is evaluated for formaldehyde emission using the gas-analytical method: the standard is no more than 1.75 mg/m², and the actual value is 0.95 mg/m².
For more information about the advantages of our products, including the low formaldehyde emission level, please visit the Advantages page.
In August 2012, "Syktyvkar Plywood Mill" LLC mastered the production of E0.5 emission class particleboard. Furniture made from Lamarty LDPB fully complies with European standards for E0.5 formaldehyde emission and meets modern quality requirements.
Laminated particleboard used in furniture manufacturing contains formaldehyde, which can be released into the air. The emission intensity depends on the temperature and humidity in the room. To minimize emissions, all exposed edges of LDPB are coated with protective film. The formaldehyde emission class reflects the standard for free formaldehyde content in 100 grams of dry board: the lower the number after the letter E (0; 0.5; 1; 2), the less formaldehyde is released.
Formaldehyde is a chemical compound consisting of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. In its concentrated form, it is a colorless gas with a strong odor and is a carcinogenic substance. Formaldehyde is toxic and negatively affects genetic material, reproductive organs, respiratory tract, eyes, and skin, causing allergies.

According to the supply contracts for plywood raw materials with "Syktyvkar Plywood Mill" LLC, the supplier is responsible for forest restoration and bears full responsibility for it.
We adhere to sustainable forestry principles, which is confirmed by our participation in international and Russian ecological programs. Our raw material suppliers are required to restore the logged forests, following strict regulations and standards. Each year, they plant thousands of trees in the logged areas, ensuring the ecosystem's restoration.

We use epoxy putty based on "Colofill" and the hardener "Covet" in production. For painting, we can only recommend painting the edges of laminated plywood with waterproof paint from the "VAPA" company.
To achieve the desired shade, several steps are required. First, the material needs to be primed and dried. If defect correction is necessary (for example, on lower grades of plywood), the material should be puttied, dried, sanded, primed, and dried again. Only after all these steps can the plywood be painted.
Alternatively, you can use SyPly PRIMER plywood, which is covered with special protective paper allowing paint to be applied without additional surface preparation. Plywood sheets laminated with primeTEG film have a perfect surface and are immediately ready for painting. SyPly PRIMER plywood saves time and materials: paint goes on in one coat, and priming is not required.
Plywood for painting is convenient for constructing playgrounds and creating various interior solutions where adding color is necessary.
Laminated and melamine plywood are not intended for contact with food, and their surfaces are not resistant to knife cuts.
We produce chipboard, laminated chipboard (MFC), and plywood. OSB is a different product, and we do not manufacture it.
