Douglas Fir Sanded Plywood Panel 3/4 Inch from Japan
This plywood panel consists solely of thin wood sheets with both outer plies made from coniferous Douglas fir wood, fully sanded on at least one face for a smooth finish but not further processed. Each ply is not exceeding 6 mm thick, and it is not surface-covered with anything that obscures the wood grain. It falls under HTS 4412.39.4012 due to the specific Douglas fir outer ply and sanding specification.
