Advance Ply Palladium is IS 710:2024 certified boiling water proof marine grade plywood that also carries IS 5509:2021 fire retardant certification. Both standards are printed on the edge of every sheet, alongside the ISI mark, the CM/L licence number and the TYPE-AA, CLASS-E1 classification.
That dual certification is rare in the Indian market. Most brands sell a marine range and a separate fire retardant range, so a project with both a moisture requirement and a fire requirement has to run two different materials. Palladium answers both from one sheet, and does it with a 36 year warranty.
The board is built from 100% tropical hardwood veneers bonded with E1 grade phenol formaldehyde resin, a low formaldehyde emission class suited to enclosed interiors. Average density is 0.75 g/cm³, screw and nail holding is above 1600 N, and compressive strength is above 5500 N.
Every sheet goes through the HEXAPRO process: four hydraulic press cycles and two chemical treatments before it leaves the factory. Resin penetration into the core is handled separately by HVRT, High Viscous Resin Technology. Preservative protection is Copper Chrome Boron with a published retention of 12.5 kg/m³, and the board carries the FBTT mark for fungus, borer and termite treatment.
Fire performance comes from two systems. NAFRG is nano alumina fire retardant glue used in the bond line itself, which Advance Ply states is the first use of nano alumina fire retardant glue in Indian plywood manufacturing. NFGC is a nano flame guard coating applied across the full board. Published figures are flame penetration above 60 minutes, flammability above 45 minutes and rate of burning above 30 minutes.
Why Advance Ply Palladium Performs Differently?
IS 710 + IS 5509
Dual Certified
Marine grade and fire retardant on one board, both printed on the edge with the ISI mark and CM/L licence number. Very few boards in India carry both.
Up To 200
Hours Boiling Water Proof
Boiling water proof for up to 200 hours without delamination. IS 710:2024 requires 72 hours, so the board is tested well beyond the standard.
36
Year Warranty
A 36 year manufacturer warranty, issued as a certificate registered against the invoice.
4x
Hydraulic Press Cycles
The HEXAPRO process presses every sheet four times and treats it twice. Additional press cycles reduce internal air gaps, raise density and improve bonding between veneers.
1600N
Screw Holding Capacity
Screw and nail holding above 1600 N, with compressive strength above 5500 N, keeps hinges, handles and load bearing joints tight for the life of the furniture.
60+
Minutes Flame Penetration
IS 5509:2021 certified. Flame penetration above 60 minutes, flammability above 45 minutes, rate of burning above 30 minutes.
HEXAPRO is the Advance Ply manufacturing process: six stages made up of four press cycles and two chemical treatments. Each press cycle compresses the veneer stack further, which is what holds density at 0.75 g/cm³ and keeps a screw above 1600 N.
HVRT is a separate technology doing a different job. High Viscous Resin Technology controls how deeply the resin travels into the core rather than sitting between the face veneers. Deep penetration is what keeps the glue line intact through up to 200 hours of boiling water.
Preservative protection is Copper Chrome Boron applied through the sheet with a published retention of 12.5 kg/m³, so the treatment can be checked rather than assumed. The board carries the FBTT mark, fungus borer termite treated, and an anti fungal mark alongside it.
Fire protection works in two places at once. NAFRG puts nano alumina fire retardant into the glue line, so the resistance is inside the board rather than only on its face. NFGC adds a nano flame guard coating across the full surface. That combination is what produces the IS 5509 figures in the specification table below

Frequently Asked Questions About Advance Ply Palladium
What is Advance Ply Palladium best used for?
Advance Ply Palladium is ideal for bedroom wardrobes, living room furniture, interior doors, office furniture, storage cabinets, and commercial interiors. Its IS 710 Marine Grade certification, E1 Grade Resin, and hardwood construction make it suitable for projects requiring durability, moisture resistance, and long service life.
What is the difference between Advance Ply Tungsten and Palladium?
Both are IS 710 marine grade with IS 5509 fire retardant certification, 100% hardwood, CCB treated and pressed four times through the HEXAPRO process. Tungsten uses E0 resin, is built in 13 layers, reaches 0.78 g/cm ³ density and 250 boiling hours, carries the IATC indoor air toxicity compliant mark and a lifetime warranty. Palladium uses E1 resin, reaches 0.75 g/cm ³ and 200 boiling hours, and carries a 36 year warranty.
What thickness is recommended for wardrobe construction using Palladium?
18mm Palladium is the preferred thickness for wardrobe carcasses, shutters, and furniture construction. 12mm is commonly used for internal shelves and partitions, while 6mm is suitable for back panels and drawer bottoms.
Is Advance Ply Palladium termite and borer resistant?
Yes. Advance Ply Palladium is treated with Copper-Chrome-Boron (CCB) throughout the panel thickness, helping protect against termite and borer attacks while improving long-term durability.
Does Advance Ply Palladium have fire-retardant properties?
Yes. Advance Ply Palladium carries IS 5509 Fire Retardant certification along with IS 710 Marine Grade certification. It is designed to help slow flame spread and improve fire safety performance while maintaining excellent moisture resistance.
