Update On Plastic Plywood

Update On Plastic Plywood BUILDINGS Miscellaneous 24-6-35 Thank you for your article on our products in the last issue of FARM SHOW. Unfortunately, the prices quoted for plastic plywood in the article were not correct. We will be happy to provide readers with current, accurate prices on all our products. We sell three distinct plactic products: Plastic Plywood, Polyboard, and HDPE. These products all have similar advantages. They will not rot or corrode; they are weatherproof and maintenance-free; they can be easily cut and installed; and can be fastened with most common fasteners. Water absorption rate is very close to 0 percent. Each product has a different structure, texture, and finish. Plastic Plywood: Used as an alternative to plywood. Exceptionally strong and rigid. Excellent chemical resistance and can withstand high-pressure washing. Comes in 4 by 8-ft. sheets that are 1/2 or 3/4 in. thick. Polyboard: No painting is required but paint can be applied without peeling or chipping because the board is waterproof. Sheets range from 3/8 to 1 1/8 in. thick. Polyboard is manufactured in 4 by 8-ft. sheets and also as scuff liners that are 12 to 24 in. wide by 26 ft. long. Can be used for hog, chicken, dairy or horse barns; dividers, walls; exterior sheathing or paneling, bulkhead panels for van trailers, children's outdoor playhouses, marine boat sheds, docks, piers, etc. HDPE: Comes in sheets and rolls. The rolls are of varying thickness from 1/8 to 1/2 in., widths from 12 to 60 in., and lengths of more than 100 ft. HDPE is also available in 4 by 8, 4 by 10, and 4 by 12-ft. sheets and in corrugated versions for ceilings. HDPE has been used for lining manger and feed bunks, wagon & spreader beds, dump liners, etc. (Carolyn R. Kyle, North Brooks Farms, P.O.
