FAQ

Modern plywood is not normally utilized with lead because manufacturers strictly follow all safety precautions. However, the old ones treated with lead-based chemicals may not be safe. Given its use for furniture and wall panels indoors, check out if the supplier has treated the plywood with lead-free adhesives and treatments before installation.

Lead-lined plywood is mostly made and ranges from 12mm to 25mm in thickness, depending on the lead layer and type of application. It is often used in hospitals and laboratories where radiation shielding is needed. The thickness of the lead lining can vary depending on the amount of protection needed.

Lead-free plywood is manufactured without using lead-based chemicals or adhesives. Hence, it poses a very minimal risk of endangering its users from a residential as well as a commercial perspective. This plywood reduces the risks involved in health hazards due to lead exposure, such as respiratory complications and lead poisoning. It is commonly used where safety factors are a concern in furniture, panelling, and other types of indoor applications.
