How Humidity Affects Plywood: Why Carbonized Plywood Performs Better in Damp Environments

In Taiwan's humid climate, excessive moisture in the air can be one of the biggest challenges for building materials. High humidity often causes wood boards to swell, deform, or even delaminate, reducing their lifespan and structural reliability.

The Stability Advantage of Carbonized Plywood
Tjipseng's carbonized plywood series is engineered specifically for humid environments. Through a high-temperature carbonization process, the wood’s internal capillary structure becomes more stable, effectively reducing water absorption and expansion.
According to SGS testing, Tjipseng carbonized plywood achieves an exceptionally low thickness swelling rate of only 2%, far exceeding standard requirements. It also passed repeated boiling and immersion tests without delamination, proving its superior waterproof performance.

Enhancing Water Resistance: Use of Wood Oil
For even stronger protection, we recommend applying Japanese Vaton Wood Protection Oil, a premium penetrating wood oil. It forms a natural waterproof layer while preserving the wood’s texture and breathability, extending its lifespan.
