Flexible plywood is a type of plywood that can be curved in one direction. It is created by pressing and glueing a number of thin layers of wood veneer together, where the grains are perpendicular to the direction of the curve.
Flexi ply is often used to create curved surfaces, such as boat building, architectural millwork, signs and furniture making. It has also been used in the transportation industry to manufacture buses, trucks, and trailers.
Flexible plywood is a common material in art and craft projects as it is easy to cut, shape and paint.
Besides its flexibility and dimensional stability, flexi ply exhibits other qualities which include:
