From roofing decks and concrete formwork to kitchen cabinets, flooring, and outdoor structures — Tujenge Marine Boards are the go-to choice for contractors, builders, and homeowners who need material they can rely on long-term.

Phenolic glue resists moisture, swelling & delamination
Tropical hardwood core — stronger than standard plywood
Marine boards — also referred to as marine plywood — are a step above ordinary construction boards. Unlike standard plywood that weakens and warps when exposed to moisture, marine boards are specifically engineered to perform in wet, humid, and high-load environments. Tujenge Marine Boards are sourced from Jinsen International Wood Industry, a globally recognised manufacturer, and made from dense tropical hardwood veneers layered and pressed together with waterproof phenolic resin — giving them exceptional structural integrity throughout their lifespan.
Each 4ft × 8ft sheet is uniform in density, free of core voids, and sanded smooth on both faces — making them ready for any application from roofing substrates to interior furniture work.
