It is appropriate for both commercial and residential environments, and all Durapalm products are formaldehyde free.

Durapalm architectural plywood is made from coconut or sugar palms that are past their fruit-bearing years. This plywood can be cut and sanded using conventional woodworking equipment. It can also be glued or mechanically fastened using the same materials and fasteners commonly used with wood. Available as a flat, edge or end grain product, Durapalm accepts stains and finishes very well.
