Blockboard is one of the complex plywood types that are engineered for uses such as furniture making, heavier worktops etc. Blockboard is a type of plywood that is manufactured in a unique way. It is pressed in such a way that the softwood strips are found between two layers of the wood veneers in the core of the sheet. This contributes to the dimensional stability of the board. The softwood strips in the centre ensure that the board is able to hold nails and screws better than the other engineered boards.
