How Sainik 710 Plywood Protects Your Home Against Termites and Moisture

Wardrobes, furniture, partitions, design elements- the homes and offices today are clad in plywood. Still, every time you go out to purchase plywood, your worst nightmares haunt your mind. What if it becomes a storehouse of termites in no time? Or worse, what if it starts to resemble a soggy sponge after a particularly humid monsoon?

We have all been there. Watching our investment and efforts put into a furniture piece turn into a buffet for creepy crawlies or cabinet doors warping into abstract shapes is heartbreaking for all. But not anymore!

CenturyPly brings you Sainik 710– the plywood that stands against it all. Think of it as a valiant knight (a Sainik- true to its name) fighting all the atrocities of moisture, termites and borers.

Why Traditional Plywood Often Fails

Traditional plywood, readily available in the market, is not always a strong defender against common problems. When we incorporate them in our furniture or interiors, we compromise the structural integrity and aesthetic appeal of our homes.

• Traditional plywood, at its core, is made of wood veneers. And what do termites love more than wood? The cellulose, in its true form, serves as a feast for these destructive insects.


• Secondly, untreated plywood is porous. It readily absorbs moisture from the surrounding environment. This absorbed moisture leads to swelling, warping and delamination.


• In some traditional plywood, inconsistencies in the glue or improper application can create weak points. This causes premature deterioration.



Often cheaper, traditional plywood may have very surface-level defences. Over the years, these treatments diminish, exposing the untreated plywood.

The outcome? Distorted furniture, sagging partitions, and a breeding ground for mould and mildew.

Against Termites: The Chemical Barrier of Sainik 710

Push all your worries aside when you choose Sainik 710 for your place. Here’s why:

• It comes with borer and termite proofing.


• It is chemically treated both inside and out. It comes with a powerful chemical treatment that repels termites and other wood-destroying insects. Thus, it is difficult for termites to penetrate and eat the wood.


• It features a special "Glue Line Protection" treatment. This serves as a barrier against borers and termites. It prevents them from damaging the wood by essentially making the glue lines between the plywood layers resistant to insect attacks.


• The plywood comes with an 8-year warranty.

It is best suited for use in areas that are prone to termite infestations, such as crawl spaces, basements and outdoor structures.

Against Moisture: How Sainik 710 Resists Water Damage

Is the fear of plywood swelling up causing you stress? Not when you bring home Sainik 710 because:

• The plywood is waterproof. We call it ‘Asli Waterproof’ plywood because it has stood firm in numerous tests. CenturyPly plywood is tested for water resistance by submerging a sample in boiling water for 72 hours. After the test, the plywood is evaluated for strength, structure, and shape. It was all intact!


• The best quality of this plywood is that it is gapless. This makes it stronger than any other plywood option.


• Being gapless and made of high-quality wood, the plywood offers enhanced resistance to bending. You need not worry about your cabinet doors or wardrobe shelves deforming under the influence of moisture.


• It is BWP-grade plywood, i.e., it has passed the boiling water test, which is the most rigorous test to determine if plywood is waterproof. The Sainik 710 plywood did not delaminate even after being subjected to boiling water for about 72 hours.

Before you set out to purchase Sainik 710, here is an important message!

We’ve noticed that several counterfeit plywoods have emerged in the market. To ensure that you get the 100% genuine Sainik 710, we bring the CenturyPromise app to our customers.

The application can easily be downloaded from Google Play or the App Store to your phone. Every Sainik 710 comes with a unique QR code on it.

If the plywood is genuine, the app will display confirmation with details like product name, plant details, and an electronic warranty card; if not, it will indicate the product is not authentic.
