About Our Plywood
Florida Southern Plywood takes great pride in all our products and services, even more so when it comes to plywood. After all, it’s in our name!
Florida Southern uses only a select few mills located throughout the world to provide a consistent and reliable product. Most of our domestic plywood’s have a fir core, which reduces the weight whilst also improving stability. Our imports, depending on the specific region of origination, will predominately have a fir or birch core.
Florida Southern Plywood stocks one of the largest selection of plywood in North East Florida and Southern Georgia; however, please don’t hesitate to give us a call if you can’t find the product you are looking for on our website!
