General Characteristics
Okoume is pink in color on the face and back. Face veneers are usually Rotary Cut, Whole Piece Face. The core is a Chinese Poplar that typically has more layers than other imports. For instance, an 18mm panel will have 13 plies versus a 7 or 9 ply product from other countries. Having a Poplar core makes this product less stable than a tropical hardwood core.
Okoume is available with Moisture Resistant glue or Marine glue. Okoume is most commonly used in the construction of cabinet boxes. Okoume is a good substitute for Meranti, Virola, or Faveria plywood. The cost of Okoume makes this product more attractive than other import plywood.
