General Characteristics
Meranti has an open grain similar to Mahogany. It is brownish/pink in color with a Meranti or Tropical Hardwood core. Meranti is a product of Malaysia or Indonesia. These panels are usually Rotary Cut, Whole Piece Face with a Whole Piece, or Spliced back. Meranti is one of the most stable of import panels. Availability of this product varies due to logging restrictions or lack of logs in these two countries, driving the cost up. Meranti is available with Moisture Resistant or Exterior glue. Meranti is used as the substrate for countertops or plastic laminate cabinets when a veneer product is specified. It is also used in the construction of cabinet boxes, soffits of homes, and patterns. Meranti is one of the original substitutes for domestic plywood.
