Mahogany Face Ply Marine Plywood Sheet from China

This plywood panel features a face ply of genuine mahogany (Swietenia spp.) over a laminated core, designed specifically for boat building and marine applications. It qualifies under HTS 4412.51.31.41 because it is blockboard-style plywood with at least one outer ply of tropical mahogany wood, not surface-covered in a way that obscures the natural grain. The panels are typically 4x8 feet and meet strict water-resistance standards.
