At Canoe Plywood, we know that a premium floor is only as good as what’s underneath it. Our Supreme Underlayment panels are precision-engineered in British Columbia to provide the ultimate smooth, stable, and durable base for any finish, from luxury vinyl and ceramic tile to hardwood and carpet.

Why Professionals Choose Canoe Underlayment

Our underlayment panels are manufactured using high-quality Canadian softwood veneers, specifically selected and composed to eliminate voids. This results in a “puncture-resistant” core that protects your finished floor from heavy furniture legs and concentrated loads.

Key Product Features

• Solid-Core Construction: Specifically manufactured to meet strict floor-covering criteria, ensuring a uniform surface free from open defects or core gaps.
• Precision Sanded: Calibrated to industry-standard thicknesses (including 8.5mm) with a fine-sanded face that eliminates grain telegraphing through thin vinyl or resilient flooring.
• Non-Staining Nail Grid: Every panel comes with a factory-applied nailing grid using specialized non-staining ink. This ensures fast, accurate installation without the risk of ink “bleed-through” or discoloration on your expensive floor coverings.
• Eco-Friendly Performance: Bonded with waterproof, exterior-grade phenolic resin adhesives with No Added Urea Formaldehyde (NAUF), meeting the highest indoor air quality standards.
• APA Certified: Fully rated by the APA (Engineered Wood Association) and meeting or exceeding all CSA standards for structural integrity and moisture resistance.
