About this lot

Brazilian WBP marine-grade plywood. Used for formwork, hoarding and structural cladding. CE marked. Located in Manchester — collection or arranged regional delivery available. Offered by Manchester Greenfield Contractors (contractor) from their Manchester yard, listed 14 days ago.

Site over-orders, cancelled jobs and careful strip-outs are where the best material bargains in the UK come from — this lot is one of them. This is unused, current-spec material — the only thing second-hand about it is the price tag logic.

Carbon & sustainability notes

With Part Z and embodied-carbon reporting moving up the agenda, documented reuse like this is increasingly worth recording in your project's carbon log.

Typical applications

  • Flooring, sarking and sheathing

Questions about this lot

Is this timber structurally graded?+

Where the listing states a grade (C16/C24) the stamp is on the timber. Reclaimed boards from Manchester Greenfield Contractors are sold for non-structural use unless re-graded by an inspector.

Will reclaimed boards have nails in them?+

The seller has metal-detected the stock; expect the odd missed fixing — budget 1 saw blades for a lot this size and check with a detector before machining.

How should I store it before use?+

Keep it stick-stacked, off the ground and under cover, and let it acclimatise on site for 7–14 days before fixing internally.
