What is Coosa Board?

 It's a no-rot composite sheet material primarily used for coring and decking applications.  It’s composed of high-density polyurethane foam reinforced with layers of woven roving and continuous strand fiberglass. It’s structurally superior, doesn’t absorb water, and weighs 30-40% less than marine plywood.


Advantages of Coosa Board

  • 30%-40% lighter than plywood
  • No water rot or insect infestation
  • Less than 1% water absorption
  • Mold, mildew & algae resistant
  • No special maintenance required
  • Sanded for easy lamination
  • Easily fabricated with standard woodworking tools
