Quick Answers

Does formwork plywood need CE marking for use in Croatia?
Yes. As an EU member state, Croatia requires all construction products to carry CE marking where a harmonised European standard exists. For plywood used in construction, EN 13986 is the applicable standard. All Vinawood formwork plywood carries CE marking with a Declaration of Performance.
What is the difference between EN 636-2 and EN 636-3 plywood?
EN 636-2 plywood uses Class 2 adhesive (typically melamine-based WBP glue) suitable for humid but not permanently wet conditions. EN 636-3 plywood uses Class 3 adhesive (phenolic-based WBP glue) rated for exterior and permanently wet conditions. For standard formwork in Croatia, EN 636-2 is sufficient. For marine, bridge, or exposed concrete work, specify EN 636-3 — Vinawood's Pro Form meets this requirement.
How long does shipping take from Vietnam to Croatia?
Container shipments from Hai Phong to Croatian ports (Rijeka, Split, Ploče) typically take 28-35 days depending on the shipping line and transhipment route. Vinawood can arrange FOB, CFR, or CIF delivery terms.
What minimum order quantity applies for Croatian buyers?
The standard minimum order is one 20-foot container (approximately 22-24 m³ of plywood depending on thickness). For larger projects or ongoing supply agreements, Vinawood offers volume pricing on 40-foot HC container loads.
Is Vietnamese plywood subject to anti-dumping duties in the EU?
No. Vietnamese plywood enters the EU duty-free under the EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA). This contrasts with Chinese-origin plywood, which faces anti-dumping duties in several EU markets. Vietnamese origin provides a clear cost advantage for Croatian importers.
