What IICL TB-001 specifies for container flooring plywood — thickness, species, bonding and test loads — and how to buy compliant 28 mm floorboards.

Short answer: a high-density film-faced panel, handled well, gives 20–40+ pours ; a low-quality panel can fail in under 10 . So the figure that decides cost.

Short answer: No. Plywood boxes and cases are exempt from ISPM-15 , because plywood is a processed (engineered) wood — the heat and glue used to make it.

Short answer: IS 710 is the standard for BWP (boiling-waterproof) marine plywood — a 100% phenolic-bonded board for constant water and humidity. IS 303.

Short answer: plywood is built from thin veneers cross-laminated at right angles — it is strong in every direction and the right choice for structural work.
