With UltraHEX, the average weight savings is around 40% compared to Riga Heksa baltic birch core plywood. In fact, a sheet of 3/4" weighs less than the average 1/2" baltic birch core hex ply, making it a great alternative whenever weight is a concern. Riga is great for wide unsupported spans that need strength. But seriously, how often is that? Mix the two and substitute UltraHEX for most of the project. Big spans - use Riga Heksa, everything else - lighten up with UltraHEX.
If you have been using hex ply with a baltic birch core then you know how useful this phenolic film surface is for durability and scuff resistance for floors, case boxes, workbench tops, and any number of applications where you need a tough and and good looking surface that gets a lot of use. But plenty of those projects don't need the extra weight. Introducting UltraHEX. Lighter, but with a higher strength to weight ratio.
