We have recently bought some marine plywood, the stamp on the edge reads as follows, 3rd party verification cert Dmp 52 there are no other stamp marks on the sheets, what does this mark mean ?
You can get more information on the CERTIFICATE from your supplier .
A client needs to know why his plywood was date stamped? Is there a federal regulation (USDA Forest Products Service?) or an industry regulation (Amer. Lumber Standards Committee?) which requires this? Or is this just a requirement or preference of the dealers in order to rotate stock efficiently?
Thanks.
I think it’s just a requirement or preference of the manufacturers/dealers for quality control or stock management.
