Plywood

Premium Industrial Grades

Rayonier owns a plywood facility in St. Maries, Idaho that manufactures a wide range of plywood products, principally for industrial grades such as panels for boats, truck beds, and RV applications. The St. Maries facility has annual capacity of 150 million square feet (MMSF 3/8” basis).

The secret to our plywood’s strength, integrity, and appearance are the high-quality veneers we use, and a composed core technology called Precision Core™, which essentially provides a one-piece core veneer. We supply high-quality western-fir panels in a variety of proprietary and APA grades. Our panels are produced with no-added urea formaldehyde (NAUF) exterior grade resin.
