Saburi plywood price: quick answer (November 2026)

Saburi Ply, a Kolkata plywood maker founded in 1990, does not publish a price list; it sells through authorised dealers and quotes on request. IndiaMART dealer listings for Saburi Gold, its IS 710 marine series with a 35-year warranty, showed ₹115-125 per sq ft in November 2026, about ₹3,680-4,000 for a 32 sq ft 8x4 sheet. On the same IS 710 grade, CenturyPly Club Prime is ₹171 per sq ft including GST.

Who makes Saburi plywood

Saburi Ply is a Kolkata-based plywood manufacturer that, according to its website, Gajanand Munka started in 1990.

Its listed office is in Rajarhat, Kolkata. Its national presence page says it runs three plants: the original one in North 24 Parganas, West Bengal, serving North, East and Central India; a Vizag plant in Andhra Pradesh serving the South; and a third facility it does not disclose. Saburi's buying guide says a BIS licence lookup for its plywood should show Saburi Panel Private Limited as the certificate holder, a useful name to match when you check the CM/L number.

Beyond plywood, Saburi lists block boards (IS 1659), Saburi Flush Door Gold (IS 2202), Modwud chipboard in pre-laminated (IS 12823) and plain (IS 3087) forms, WPC boards and door frames, and Saburi Lam liner. Its site footer lists ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 alongside FSC, CARB, IGBC, CE and BIS certification.

Saburi plywood ranges and grades explained

Saburi organises its plywood by Indian Standard, so the IS number on the sheet tells you which tier you are buying.

Structural range: Titanium Plus, Perennial and Club H+ (IS 10701)

These three sit at the top. Saburi Perennial uses Burma Gurjan hardwood bonded with phenol formaldehyde resin, gets a three-stage vacuum preservative treatment, is calibrated on both sides and is listed as E0, in 4mm to 25mm and 10x4, 8x4 and 7x4 sizes. Club H+ is listed as calibrated, pressure impregnated with preservatives and E0. Titanium Plus is the series Saburi backs with its 10x money-back term.

Marine: Saburi Gold (IS 710)

Saburi Gold is the series most buyers ask for. Saburi lists it as IS 710 BIS certified marine grade with phenolic-glued veneers, termite and antifungal treatment, calibration, E0 emission and CARB certification, in 4mm to 25mm. The same page says Gold's Fireguard treatment is not IS 5509 certified, so specify Saburi FR where a fire-rated board is required.

General purpose: Saburi Scout (IS 303)

Scout is the IS 303 range, made from eucalyptus and poplar plantation timber with melamine-fortified resin, calibrated on both sides, listed as E1 and backed by 21 years. Its product header says BWR grade, while its FAQ says Scout comes in MR, BWR and BWP versions, so check the grade printed on each sheet. The MR vs BWR vs BWP guide explains which grade suits which room.

Specialty: Saburi FR, Gold Flexi and Shine Platinum

Saburi FR is treated with fire retardant chemicals as per IS 5509; read the fire retardant plywood guide before specifying it for a commercial job. Gold Flexi is the flexible plywood for curved work, listed with a 30-year warranty. Shine Platinum is shuttering plywood under IS 4990, meant for concrete formwork rather than furniture.

A note on emission labels: IS 303 defines E1 and E2 classes only. E0, which Saburi lists on Gold, Perennial and Club H+, is a brand claim tested to standards outside BIS, so ask for the test report if it matters for a bedroom or nursery.

Saburi plywood price in November 2026

Saburi does not publish list prices; its home page promises a personalised quote within 24 hours, so your price comes from a dealer.

The only figure on Saburi's own site is in its buying guide, which puts Saburi Gold 710 at approximately ₹1,600-1,900 per sheet without naming the thickness or tax basis, against ₹900-1,200 for an unbranded 18mm BWP sheet. Dealer listings for 19mm Saburi Gold are much higher, so treat the guide figure as a brand reference, not a quote.

City (IndiaMART listing, seen 3 November 2026)	Product as listed	Rate shown	Per 8x4 sheet (rate x 32)
Anantapur	Saburi Gold, marine grade, 19mm	₹115 per sq ft	₹3,680
Hyderabad	Saburi Gold, 19mm, 8x4	₹118 per sq ft	₹3,776
Visakhapatnam	Saburi Gold, 8x4, thickness not shown	₹125 per sq ft	₹4,000
Bhubaneswar	Saburi plywood, grade listed as IS 303 and IS 1659	₹110 per sq ft	₹3,520
Hyderabad	Saburi BWP Gold, 12mm, 8x4	₹82 per sq ft	₹2,624

The listing titles do not say whether GST (18% on plywood) is included, so ask. The Hyderabad 12mm listing (₹82) is about 70% of that city's 19mm listing (₹118), in line with the thickness steps in Greenply's April 2026 marine price guide.

Where a dealer will not quote in writing, use PlyPrice's verified 2026 bands for 18-19mm branded plywood as a check:

Saburi series	Grade	Branded band, ₹ per sq ft	Per 8x4 sheet
Scout, MR version	MR	₹85-130	₹2,720-4,160
Scout, BWR version	BWR	₹95-160	₹3,040-5,120
Gold	Marine (IS 710)	₹120-175	₹3,840-5,600

The Saburi Gold listings above sit around the lower edge of the branded marine band. For other brands' rates, see the marine plywood price guide and the plywood sheet price guide.

Saburi vs CenturyPly on the same grade

On published specifications Saburi and CenturyPly line up grade for grade; the practical differences are price transparency, warranty structure and where each is stocked.

Grade or job	Saburi	CenturyPly
IS 710 marine: sink base, vanity	Saburi Gold: IS 710, 35 years, E0 and CARB claims, calibrated	Club Prime: "ISI 710 compliant", 30 years including 10-year Total Cover, E0 claim, ₹171 per sq ft incl. GST (19mm)
BWP, general purpose	Scout BWP version (IS 303), 21 years	Sainik 710: IS 303 BWP, 10 years, ₹122 per sq ft incl. GST
MR and BWR interiors	Scout (IS 303), 21 years, E1	Win MR, Sainik MR: 5 years
Top tier	Titanium Plus, Perennial, Club H+ (IS 10701): lifetime with money-back multiples	Architect Ply: Total Cover for 10 years, then lifetime standard warranty; E0 claim
Fire retardant	Saburi FR (IS 5509)	Fire retardant properties as per IS 5509 on Club Prime and Architect Ply
Flexible	Saburi Gold Flexi, 30 years	Check with dealer
Price	Dealer quote only	National MRP including GST on Club Prime and Sainik 710
How to buy	Authorised dealers; zonal sales team for 100+ sheets	Dealers, a dealer locator and an e-shop

Saburi states longer terms in the IS 303 and IS 710 tiers: 21 years on Scout against 5 to 10 years on CenturyPly's Sainik and Win MR series, and 35 years on Gold against 30 on Club Prime. CenturyPly's strengths are a published national price and Total Cover, which pays for furniture damage, not only the board, for the first 10 years. "Check with dealer" means no CenturyPly flexible series appeared on its product pages on 3 November 2026, not that none is available.

So which is better, Saburi or Century plywood? In West Bengal, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, where Saburi says its coverage is strongest, get written quotes for Saburi Gold and Club Prime in the same thickness and choose on delivered price and warranty structure. Elsewhere, confirm a Saburi dealer can supply your series. See the CenturyPly price guide and the CenturyPly vs Greenply comparison for the national brands, and the Plyneer price guide for an online seller based in Bangalore.

Saburi warranty: what is promised and how to claim

Saburi's warranties are long, but the wording differs between its pages, so get the exact terms for your series in writing before you pay.

Saburi Gold: 35-year replacement warranty against borer, termite and delamination, which the product page says was raised from 30 years; a May 2026 Saburi blog post still says 30.
Club H+: lifetime warranty. The buying guide describes a 5x money-back commitment, and the home page describes 12 years of full replacement plus a lifetime warranty on the product.
Perennial and Titanium Plus: lifetime plus 7x money-back, and 10x money-back for life.
Scout, FR and Gold Flexi: 21 years, a lifetime 2X money-back warranty, and 30 years.

To claim, Saburi's guide says to keep the warranty card signed and stamped by the authorised dealer, and its site has a warranty registration page. These terms cover manufacturing defects, so keep the invoice, a photograph of the sheet stamp and the CM/L number. The plywood warranty guide explains what lifetime cover usually means in practice.

Where Saburi plywood is sold

Saburi sells through authorised dealers and distributors, not directly to individual buyers in retail quantities.

Its buying guide says the zonal sales team deals directly only with contractor orders of 100 or more sheets and institutional projects. It names West Bengal, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and the major metros as its strongest markets and describes the Northeast, Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand as expanding; its national presence page says it distributes across 26 states. The site has no dealer locator or online store, only service pages for Kolkata, Chennai, Bangalore and Hyderabad and an enquiry route.

The IndiaMART listings seen in November 2026 came from eastern and southern states, the regions its West Bengal and Andhra Pradesh plants are said to serve. In Kolkata, Odisha and coastal Andhra, monsoon humidity makes IS 710 the safer pick for kitchens and bathrooms; for dry bedrooms inland, Scout in the right grade is enough.

Saburi plywood review: strengths and checks

Judged on what Saburi publishes, the range is well specified, with a few points to confirm before you buy.

Strengths on paper

An Indian Standard is listed for almost every line: IS 10701, IS 710, IS 5509, IS 303, IS 1659 and IS 2202.
Long stated warranties, from 21 years on Scout to lifetime money-back terms on the structural range.
Calibration claimed on Gold, Perennial, Club H+ and Scout, which suits modular and CNC work.
Emission listed by series: E0 claims on Gold, Perennial and Club H+, and E1 on Scout.

Points to confirm

No published price, so compare at least two written quotes for the same thickness.
Warranty wording differs between pages; get the term for your series on the warranty card.
Scout spans several grades, so read MR, BWR or BWP on the stamp.
Outside the East and South, confirm stock before you finalise a design around a Saburi series.

This assessment uses Saburi's published specifications only, not user reviews or lab tests.

How to buy and verify Saburi plywood

Check the licence, the grade and the paperwork before the sheets are unloaded.

ISI mark and CM/L number: verify the CM/L number (CM/L- followed by 10 digits) in the BIS Care app (Verify Licence Details) or on Manak Online (Status of Licence). Saburi's guide says the holder should read Saburi Panel Private Limited, and the licence should cover the standard printed: IS 710 for Gold, IS 303 for Scout. The ISI mark has been mandatory on plywood since 28 February 2025, phased for small and micro units.
Invoice: series, thickness, sheet size (10x4, 8x4 or 7x4), quantity and GST, each in writing.
Warranty: a card signed and stamped by the authorised dealer, then registration on Saburi's warranty page.
Edge and core: look for core gaps, overlaps and edge lifting, and measure thickness at all four corners; calibrated sheets should read evenly.
Delivered price: transport, loading and cutting charges written separately, then converted to per sq ft including GST (sheet price divided by 32 for 8x4).
