Commercial Plywood · 18 mm
18mm Commercial Plywood Price in Ahmedabad
Eighteen millimetres is the structural Commercial board. Main carcass, shutters, bed boxes and long-span shelves in dry rooms all sit on this thickness.
18mm Commercial Plywood — Price & Specification
18mm Commercial Plywood is priced at ₹65 per sq ft in Ahmedabad, which works out to roughly ₹2,080 for a full 8 × 4 ft sheet (32 sq ft).
When a piece of dry-area furniture needs to hold its shape for years, 18mm Commercial is the sheet it is built from. It takes hinge and runner screws on the edge without splitting, spans a full wardrobe shelf, and gives a shutter enough body to stay flat.
It is still Commercial grade — urea-formaldehyde bonded and for dry interiors only. For a kitchen or bathroom carcass, move up to Marine BWP instead.
Commercial plywood (IS:303) is bonded with urea-formaldehyde resin. It is the value grade for dry indoor work — bedroom furniture, wardrobes and living-room cabinetry. It is not meant for kitchens, bathrooms or any area that sees standing water.

18mm Commercial Plywood — Frequently Asked Questions
What does 18mm Commercial plywood sell for at Lati Bazar?
₹65 per sq ft at Samta Plywood Centre. That works out to roughly ₹2,080 for a full 8 × 4 ft sheet of 32 sq ft, before GST.
Is 18mm Commercial plywood sold by the sheet or by the square foot?
Both. The rate is quoted per sq ft at ₹65, and a full 8 × 4 sheet of 32 sq ft comes to about ₹2,080. Cut sizes are billed on the same per-sq-ft rate.
Is 18mm Commercial plywood strong enough for a wardrobe carcass?
Yes — in a dry bedroom that is exactly what it is for. It holds hinge and runner screws on the edge, carries a full shelf span and keeps a shutter flat. What it will not tolerate is moisture.
How does 18mm Commercial compare with 18mm MR Grade?
Same thickness, different glue. Commercial at ₹65/sq ft is urea-formaldehyde bonded and dry-area only; 18mm MR Grade at ₹74/sq ft uses a melamine-fortified resin that survives humidity. For a wet area neither applies — use 18mm Marine BWP. Thinner Commercial: 12mm at ₹51/sq ft.
