AK Appleply Diamond Plus – Fire Retardant Plywood (IS 5509 Certified)
AK Appleply Diamond Plus is engineered to deliver superior fire resistance while maintaining the strength, stability, and finish that quality furniture demands. Made from 100% Gurjan hardwood and bonded with BWP-grade resin, this plywood is designed to perform under the toughest conditions.
Each panel is treated with fire-retardant chemicals under vacuum and pressure, ensuring deep penetration and consistent protection. The result is plywood that slows down the spread of flames, minimizes smoke emission, and provides crucial extra time for safe evacuation during fire emergencies.
AK Appleply Diamond Plus is ideally suited for public and commercial spaces where safety is critical — such as offices, hotels, theaters, airports, hospitals, and schools.
