Description
epicPLY multiplex board with AFX coating – lightweight, stable, scratch-resistant
The epicPLY multiplex board with AFX coating is the perfect combination of extremely low weight, high stability, and an ultra-matte, scratch-resistant surface. It is moisture-resistant, durable, and makes every project an eye-catcher – whether in camper conversions, shipbuilding, or furniture making. The Country Blue variant is just one of 12 stylish colors from the AFX collection – ranging from timelessly elegant to modern and expressive.
Ultra-light & super-stable – ideal for lightweight construction
Our epicPLY multiplex board consists of 11 middle layers (at 15 mm thickness) and is up to 50% lighter than conventional multiplex boards – all while maintaining impressive stability. Whether you are building out your camper, planning custom furniture, or realizing lightweight construction in a boat: this board saves weight without sacrificing quality.

Why is the board so light?
The key lies in the material: Albasia wood, also known as Albizia or Paraserianthes falcataria, is an extremely light wood with low density. The cell structure of this fast-growing tropical tree ensures that our multiplex boards weigh significantly less than conventional boards – while maintaining the same stability.
Albasia grows in Indonesia, where degraded and deforested areas are being reforested. Thanks to the tropical climate with plenty of sun and rain, the tree grows particularly quickly – perfect for sustainable lightweight construction.
Is it sustainable? Absolutely.
We focus on genuine climate protection. Thanks to our partnership with Fairventures, we plant six new trees for every tree felled. Our Albasia plantations sequester more CO₂ than is generated during production and transport – which makes our board climate-neutral.

*Important note on board format:
Our epicPLY boards have a standard dimension of 242 x 120 cm. However, to ensure you can use the full, undamaged surface area, we ship the boards in a slightly larger format of 243 x 121 cm. During transport, the outer edges may sustain minor damage or impressions, for example from being secured with straps. These small blemishes do not affect the quality or function of the board and therefore do not constitute a reason for complaint. Should such minimal damage occur, you can simply trim the board to the specified dimension to utilize the full, undamaged area for your project. And if everything arrives perfectly, you have simply received a little extra board from us as a gift!
