Pragati Gurjan is a premium Plywood . It is made of 100% Gurjan wood and bonded with an unextended Phenol Formaldehyde resin of BWP grade. Each of its veneer layer is treated with preservatives and is glue line protected to ensure complete protection from insects. This plywood is also boiling water proof bearing a density of 900 Kg/m3. Besides having a higher face thickness, all veneer layers have a uniform thickness construction.
Gurjan is the most unique and high density timber with natural bonding tendency and is termite and borer proof. It is reputed as a key timber species in making strong plywood. High density in woods leads to increased load bearing capacity. Hence the core and face veneers of the Gurjan wood increases the durability of the products.
