We have Imported bending plys for close on twenty years (20) and as a result probably know more about the product than anyone else in South Africa, both as sellers and users, we can advise you on most applications.

With a new order about to be placed and with some stocks here already, we are looking for suitable board stores and timber outlets to become stockists.

We can email you an up to date PDF on the product, please contact me at roy@ckdboats (dot) co.za or on
27 (021) 790-3859 phone and fax line.


We can offer thicknesses in 3mm, 5mm , 8mm and grain directions both long and cross grain.


For retail we expect an order of at least a pack lot, packs are around 460mm high x 1.23 mtrs x 2.45mtrs.



 The AriesVane Gear mount was also made with Superform bending ply.


These pictures are just some details of a yacht built using Superform bending plywood in Cape Town, South Africa. It is waterproof and also CE approoved, so suitable for both your local and export orders.

 A 3mm pack holds 150 pcs, a 5mm pack 95 pcs and the 8mm pack 55 pcs, we can prepare mixed packs at an extra handling charge.

Delivery country wide by our courier or your own transport.

We have been supplying this for some years, one South African boat yard will use no other product, even
after trying some sheet veneers locally made and at less cost.


Click on the pictures to see the high standard of joinery finish on this South African yacht.

This is a fifty foot catermaran, the wood is American Cherry, we bring in matched Cherry veneer on a
Craft paper backer, its so easy to handle and work with that you can bend it around a pencil without
the veneer cracking or breaking.


Imported for each boat to keep the batch matching, we do hold reserve stocks in our store.


Check the perfection and quality,the same yard won the Boat Of The Show in Miami a few years back, also with Perform veneers we supplied.

Some write it as BandG, the full name being  Brookes and Gatehouse, nice gear, even the older and used Network ones in the display below.

Making corners has been a way of life since I started importing bending plywood.
Each year I get the local tecnikon students asking for advice on how to use it, I tell them the same each time.

Use it yourself and find out how much it will bend to see how flexible and strong it is? yes, its also waterproof and CE aprooved.


The side, corner and top panel of the instrument display panel,  were made from one long strip of 8mm
thick Superform plywood (honest) you do have to tease 8mm ply around such a tight radius but as we can
see its quite possible.
