5-6mm plywood is commonly used to prepare floors in advance of laying LVT flooring. The additional factors that you will need to consider are as follows: - Suitable fixings to the subfloor - The ply must be well secured with the appropriate amount of fixings to avoid movement which would affect the finished floor. - Moisture - in high moisture areas product selection is more important. - Level - will self-levelling be needed to prepare the floor further

What Is 6mm Ply Wood?
Please Note: The term "6mm Plywood" commonly refers to plywood that is close to 6mm in thickness. Our product is precisely 5.5mm thick, providing the same quality and versatility as the traditionally referred 6mm plywood.

With its hardwood veneers and moderate moisture resistance this plywood sheet is suitable for furniture construction, general joinery, flooring, cladding, and more.
Our hardwood plywoods are suitable for use in humid conditions, and can be used in exterior applications if properly sealed. However, if the plywood gets wet for a long duration of time it can lead to warping, so it’s important to ensure that it is suitably protected when used outside.
When selecting plywood sheets, consider the intended use, grade, and compliance with timber regulations to ensure the correct choice for your project.

Applications and Uses
Furniture Construction

It is commonly used in furniture construction. Its stability and smooth surface make it ideal for creating cabinets, shelves, and other interior fittings.

Cladding and Interior Walls

DIY and Craft Projects

Packaging and Material Protection
The plywood sheet can also be used for packaging purposes or as a protective covering for delicate materials during transportation or storage. Alternatively, it can be also utilised as trailer linings.
Different Grades, Sizing and Quality
Plywood sheets are available in different grades, indicating their quality and intended use.
While the 6mm Non-Structural Hardwood Plywood Sheet is not graded for structural purposes, it is suitable for non-load-bearing applications.
It is essential to select the correct grade of plywood based on the specific requirements of your project to ensure its suitability and performance.
Thin plywood sheets start at 5.5mm and large plywood sheets go all the way up to 25mm, depending on your requirements; we have a wide variety of different thicknesses to suit the type of job you need to do.
It should be noted that Marine plywood, while thinner than our other plywood, actually has more density to it, so while the sheets can be thinner, they are actually more durable than a hardwood plywood sheet of the same thickness. For other details, please refer to our marine plywood page.

Q&A
Would this be suitable as underlayment?
The subfloor is fine (OSB) but need a smoother surface to glue self-adhesive LVT tiles to. I’m aware that priming the plywood is a must but was wondering if this thickness would work as it doesn’t need to be structural.
