California Lumber Dealers Calilornia Outstanding Giant Selling Hardwood Plywood

Lumber dealers in California in the past few years have taken an increasing interest in stocking and selling hardwood plywood. They are selling this to carpenters, hobbyists, local cabinet shops, and also for interior decoration in new homes and for remodeling old ones.

Dealers can now get display racks, brochures on installation and finishing, as well as other literature of general interest to the ultimate consumer, from the various manufacturers and distributors.

When dealers sell hardwood plywood to homeowners they are creating new business, because they are usually replacing a product which they do not handle. They find that an installation of hardwood plywood is its own advertisement, as it often results in bringing other customers into their stores.

There is an almost infinite variety of hardwood plywood available today to suit every taste and purse. This includes cabinet hardwoods of rare beauty from all over the world. The increased demand has permitted manufacturing economies, as the result of which some manufacturers are offering certain species of hardwood plywood such as oak, walnut, and korina, formerly considered in the luxury class, at very reasonable prices.

In no other state is plywood as well distributed as in California. There are plywood warehouses and wholesalers everywhere, and no retail lumber yard is so remote as to be more than the shortest time away from a prompt and satisfactory source of plywood supply. No other building material is better merchandised. What coffee and toast and eggs are to the average breakfast table, such is plywood to the California building trade.

And it will probably always be that way, for the building tendencies are all in that direction. The beauty, the versatility, the practicability of plywood have from the beginning found understanding and welcome in California. That's why it remains the plywood champ; without challengers.
