What kind of environmental code is hidden behind this seemingly ordinary board? ​

The birth of plywood was originally an efficient innovation of wood resources. It is made by rotary cutting logs into thin pieces, crisscrossing and hot pressing them together, which greatly reduces wood waste through the process of "replacing thickness with thinness". According to statistics, producing 1 cubic meter of plywood only requires 2.5 cubic meters of logs, while solid wood of the same volume requires 5-6 cubic meters, increasing resource utilization by over 50%. Of greater concern is the widespread use of small-diameter wood, thinning wood, and fast-growing forest wood in the production process of plywood, which has revitalized wood that cannot be used for traditional furniture manufacturing and effectively alleviated the contradiction between natural forest protection and wood demand.

Environmental performance is the core competitiveness of plywood. In the production process, with the popularity of formaldehyde free adhesives, plywood is gradually bidding farewell to the label of formaldehyde pollution. Biobased adhesives use natural materials such as soy protein and starch as raw materials to reduce formaldehyde emissions to almost zero, meeting the international environmental standard ENF level. Even after the end of its service life, plywood can still be regenerated through crushing, used as biomass fuel or pressed particleboard, achieving a complete cycle of "from trees to boards, and then back to nature". In Europe, over 60% of discarded plywood has been converted into new building materials or energy through recycling and reuse.

In practical applications, the reusability of plywood is fully demonstrated. In prefabricated buildings, plywood can be used as a temporary template and can be easily repaired before being put back into construction; In the field of furniture manufacturing, modular designed plywood furniture is easy to disassemble and reassemble, and the layout can be easily changed when moving, extending the product's service life. This' one-time manufacturing, multiple use 'model not only reduces waste generation, but also lowers carbon emissions throughout the entire lifecycle.

From efficient resource utilization to zero formaldehyde environmental protection, from closed-loop management of production to recycling, plywood is writing a new paradigm of green materials with technology and innovation. As more and more consumers regard environmental protection as a material selection standard, plywood is injecting a dual vitality of nature and the future into home life with its unique sustainable value. Perhaps in the near future, every piece of plywood will become a vivid footnote to the circular economy, witnessing a new chapter of harmonious coexistence between humans and nature.
