Plywood is made of several thin layers (plies) of wood glued together crosswise, offering excellent strength and dimensional stability. Solid wood panels are made from assembled natural wood boards, preserving the material’s authenticity.
- Plywood: multilayer structure, uniform strength, generally more affordable price
- Solid wood panels: natural look preserved, varied grain patterns, price depends on the wood species
The choice depends on your priorities: natural aesthetics with solid wood or technical performance with plywood.
