12mm Birch Plywood Price in Ahmedabad
12mm is the balance point — stiff enough for shutters, drawer sides and light shelving, but lighter and cheaper than 18mm. Greenply and CenturyPly birch in stock at Lati Bazar, Ahmedabad.
12mm Birch Plywood — Price & Specification
12mm birch plywood is priced at ₹190 per sq ft in Ahmedabad — roughly ₹6,080 for a full 8 × 4 ft sheet (32 sq ft). It sits between the structural 18mm board and the thin 8mm panel, and it is the thickness most often used for anything that opens, slides or divides.
A 12mm birch sheet carries about 9 cross-bonded plies. That is enough stiffness for a cabinet shutter or a drawer side without the weight of an 18mm panel — which matters on hinges, on soft-close runners and on any tall shutter where every extra kilo shows up in the hardware.
For a painted finish, 12mm birch gives the same smooth, even face as 18mm. Designers use it for shutters, wall panelling and partitions where the surface is on show but the panel is not carrying load.
12mm Birch Plywood Rate
Rates per square foot. A standard 8 × 4 ft sheet is 32 sq ft; an 8 × 3 ft sheet is 24 sq ft.

12mm Birch Plywood — Frequently Asked Questions
What is the price of 12mm birch plywood in Ahmedabad?
12mm birch plywood is ₹190 per sq ft at Samta Plywood Centre, Lati Bazar. A full 8 × 4 ft sheet (32 sq ft) comes to about ₹6,080 and an 8 × 3 ft sheet to about ₹4,560. Prices exclude GST — call 8460783619 for today's rate.
How much does one sheet of 12mm birch plywood cost?
About ₹6,080 for a standard 8 × 4 ft sheet at ₹190 per sq ft. That is roughly ₹960 less than an 18mm birch sheet, which is why 12mm is preferred wherever full structural thickness is not needed.
Can 12mm birch plywood be used for wardrobe shutters?
Yes — 12mm is the usual choice for shutters. It stays flat, takes paint beautifully and puts less load on hinges than an 18mm panel. Use 18mm for the wardrobe carcass and 12mm for the shutters.
How many plies does 12mm birch plywood have?
About 9 cross-bonded birch plies. The tight, void-free core is what keeps a 12mm shutter from bowing over time and lets the raw edge be sanded and painted without filling.
Is 12mm birch plywood strong enough for shelves?
For short spans up to roughly 2 ft, yes. For longer shelves, wardrobe carcass or anything carrying real weight, step up to 18mm birch plywood.
