Marine / BWP Plywood · 6 mm
6mm Marine BWP Plywood Price in Ahmedabad
Six-millimetre Marine is the standard backing sheet for bathroom and utility cabinetry — flat, waterproof and stiff enough to stay true against a damp wall.
6mm Marine BWP Plywood — Price & Specification
6mm Marine / BWP Plywood is priced at ₹56 per sq ft in Ahmedabad, which works out to roughly ₹1,792 for a full 8 × 4 ft sheet (32 sq ft).
Where 4mm bends, 6mm stays flat. That is the difference that makes this the usual choice for the back of a bathroom vanity, the panel behind a washing machine nook, and the lining of a balcony storage box.
It is a backing thickness, not a carcass thickness. It will not hold a hinge screw or carry a shelf, but it will not swell, delaminate or grow fungus behind a wet wall either.
Marine (BWP — Boiling Water Proof) plywood is bonded with phenol-formaldehyde resin. It is fully waterproof and termite-resistant, which makes it the grade to specify for kitchens, bathrooms, utility areas and anywhere adjacent to the outdoors.

6mm Marine BWP Plywood — Frequently Asked Questions
What does 6mm Marine BWP plywood sell for at Lati Bazar?
₹56 per sq ft at Samta Plywood Centre. A standard 8 × 4 ft sheet works out to about ₹1,792 before GST.
Is 6mm Marine BWP sold by the sheet or by the square foot?
Both. The quoted rate is ₹56 per sq ft and a full 32 sq ft sheet is roughly ₹1,792. Cut-to-size pieces are billed on the same rate.
Is 6mm Marine BWP strong enough for a bathroom cabinet?
For the back panel, yes. For the cabinet body itself, no — a 6mm sheet will not hold hinge or runner screws. Build the carcass from 12mm Marine BWP and back it with 6mm.
How does 6mm Marine BWP compare with 6mm MR Grade?
₹56 against ₹38 per sq ft, and the gap buys a phenolic bond that survives standing water. 6mm MR Grade handles humid air only. If the panel will ever be wet rather than merely damp, pay for Marine. Thinner and more flexible: 4mm Marine BWP at ₹44/sq ft.
