What is Thanh Minh's main product?
Cost-effective film-faced plywood for concrete formwork, exported mainly to Europe. Furniture, interior and commercial plywood are also made.
What does cost-effective film-faced plywood mean?
A panel built for the number of pours the site needs, at a fair price. It is a matter of the right core, glue and film for the job, not a weaker panel.
How many times can film-faced plywood be reused?
About 12–15 pours with melamine glue and up to about 25 with phenolic glue, when panels are oiled, handled and stored correctly.

Yes. Each EU order can travel with a due-diligence file: where the logs were grown, plot coordinates as map data, and the FSC claim on the same paperwork.
How much do I need to order?
A full 40HC. Most buyers load a single product or a pair, for example film-faced plus a furniture panel; a wider mix is possible if we agree it before production.
