Why Choose MR in Bangalore:

Most Bangalore homes have air-conditioned or naturally dry interiors during summer (March-May). MR grade provides excellent value for cost-conscious buyers without water exposure risks. Ideal for projects with budget constraints where areas maintain controlled humidity levels.

Why Choose BWP in Bangalore:

With monsoon season (June-September) bringing 75-90% humidity to Bangalore, BWP grade provides insurance against moisture-related damage.

A: Yes. MR grade plywood like Century Sainik MR 303 or Greenply Ecotec MR 303 is excellent for bedroom wardrobes. Bedrooms maintain 50-65% humidity in Bangalore, well within MR plywood's tolerance. This saves Rs. 200-800 per sheet compared to BWP without compromising quality.

A: MR grade lasts 8-12 years in dry areas with proper maintenance. BWP marine grade lasts 18-25+ years even in high-humidity areas. Lifespan depends on installation quality, humidity control, and maintenance. Premium variants like Century Club Prime come with 20+ year warranties.
