Faces grade is AB/B so that the AB can be clear finished and the B face will provide a abse for a high quality paint finish.

Birch can be used both indoors and outdoors. The flexibility of the material is such that 1.5 mm thick birch can be bent through 180 degrees, this greatly extends the range of design possibilities.
