In the harsh Russian climate, the birch trees grow slowly and thus the wood produced is close grained and very durable. Russian birch is similiar to American birch as it is a hard, heavy wood used for construction, carving, and flooring. The veneer core plywood is used for drawer sides, toys, children's furniture, seat bottoms, chair backs, or any application that requires superior panel strength or exposed edges such as store fixtures.

It is commonly praised for its strength, lighter weight, and edge quality. The hardness and durability distinguishes this material in comparision to plywood made from other wood species. This product is the best scrollwork plywood available.
