Exporting plywood from Spain to international markets is no simple task. It is the result of a precise industrial process, a technically competitive product, and a flawless logistics strategy. At CATENVA, we’ve made it happen. And we don’t just export—we’ve become a trusted reference for international clients seeking quality, compliance, and reliability. From our facilities in Spain, we deliver our poplar plywood panels across five continents, tailored to each need, certified for every use, and ready to perform in demanding projects.

The foundation: poplar wood and responsible forest management

CATENVA’s plywood is manufactured exclusively from poplar wood (Populus spp.) sourced from sustainably managed plantations. This raw material stands out for its light weight, high mechanical strength, and ease of machining, making it ideal for a wide range of applications: construction, technical packaging, automotive, carpentry, furniture, and decoration.Our commitment to responsible sourcing is backed by forestry certifications such as PEFC and FSC®, which ensure the wood comes from forests managed according to environmental, social, and economic standards.In addition, we are part of the GROW (Group Recycling of Wood), which certifies the recyclability of our products at the end of their life cycle, promoting circular economy and environmental responsibility.

Technology and quality control at every stage

At CATENVA, we apply cutting-edge industrial technology to a controlled manufacturing process. Our plywood panels are composed of alternating layers of poplar veneer, which provide great structural stability and uniformity.

• Controlled veneer drying to prevent warping.
• Adhesives certified according to final use (structural, food-grade, decorative).
• Hot pressing with parameters adapted to each format.
• Final calibration and sanding to ensure a smooth, high-quality finish.

All this is carried out under a quality management system certified by ISO 9001, ensuring traceability, consistency, and continuous improvement across all our processes. Additionally, our panels bear the Plywood Quality seal (AEFCON), a distinction reserved for products that meet the highest technical standards in the sector.At CATENVA, we understand that good manufacturing isn’t enough—you must also ship properly. That’s why we have a team specialized in international trade that manages every export from the first contact to the arrival of the panel in the destination country.Our process includes:

• Technical and regulatory guidance according to the target market.
• Professional palletizing and proper protection for sea or land transport.
• Preparation of customs documentation, certificates of origin, invoicing, and technical declarations.
• Shipment tracking and post-sales customer support.

We currently export to countries such as France, Italy, Germany, Portugal, and many others, adapting formats, thicknesses, and finishes according to client requirements.
