Termite-Proof or Just Treated? What Contractors Must Know Before Selecting Plywood in 2025

Termite damage is no longer just a rural issue. With rapid urban expansion in areas like Sarjapur, Yelahanka, and Kanakapura Road, even premium projects in Bangalore face termite threats due to soil treatment gaps. Not all “termite-resistant” plywood is made equal.

Common Misconceptions:

• Spraying chemicals on surface ≠ termite proof

• Non-BWP boards often claim termite resistance falsely

• Cheaper plywoods use temporary treatments that fade over time

How to Identify Truly Termite-Proof Plywood:

• Should be treated during manufacturing, not post-production

• Core and face veneers must be chemically seasoned

• Should carry ISI 710 or IS 303 certification depending on application
