Wisa – SP Exterior Plywood

wisasp

WISA-SP Exterior plywood products are designed especially for cladding facades and balcony walls in buildings, for eaves and roof soffits, vehicle body constructions, traffic signs, advertising boards, etc., which are to be painted. WISA plywood suppliers craft WISA-SP as a hard, compact and smooth painting exterior plywood. The coating endures well wear and impacts and prevents hairline cracking, which commonly occurs when uncoated plywood is painted.
