Comparison With Other Products
A poplar core is lighter and cheaper but gives fewer reuses than hardwood or birch. Choose it where the project is short or panels are hand-handled.
Use Guide
- Count the expected number of pours before choosing the core — poplar suits lower reuse counts
- Seal cut edges on the day they are cut
- Do not drop panels on edge; a poplar core bruises more easily
