About PlyMatrix
New Zealand-owned plywood supplier based in Rotorua. Five premium plywood lines plus clearance deals, supplied to builders, joiners, and architects nationwide.
Our Story
PlyMatrix was founded in Rotorua with one goal: make it easier for New Zealand tradespeople, builders, and designers to get the right plywood - without the guesswork, without the wait, and without paying for a grade they do not need.
We stock five plywood lines covering every major application: lightweight falcata for caravans and tiny homes, engineered white oak for premium interiors, BS1088 Okoume marine ply for boats and wet environments, pre-finished melamine for cabinetry, and film-faced formply for concrete formwork - plus a clearance range of factory seconds.
Rotorua is our home base. New Zealand is our market. We deliver nationwide with the same product specifications and service whether you are a solo joiner in the South Island or a commercial contractor in Auckland.
What We Stand For
Product Quality
We source from certified mills meeting international standards - BS1088 marine certification, F17 structural grading, and E1 formaldehyde class. Every panel we supply is what it says on the specification sheet.
Specialist Knowledge
Plywood is all we do. When you call with a specification question you get an answer grounded in product knowledge, not a guess from a generalist counter.
Nationwide Delivery
Based in Rotorua, we dispatch nationwide. Builders in Auckland, joiners in Christchurch, marine workshops in Nelson - we deliver the full range across New Zealand.
Transparent Pricing
No hidden freight surprises after you commit. Contact us for a quote and we will tell you the landed cost to your site or workshop.
