Century Plyboards (I), Ltd.

Century Plyboards (I) Ltd., makers of the well-known ‘Centuryply’ brand of Plywood and decorative veneers, was set up in 1986 in Kolkata, a joint effort of Mr. Sajjan Bhajanka and Mr. Sanjay Agarwal. The largest seller of plywood and decorative veneers in the Indian organized plywood market, Centuryply today is the leading brand and in its short duration of existence has created a special niche for itself in the industry.

Century Plyboards (I) Ltd. has the distinction of becoming the first ISO 9002 company in India for Veneer and Plywood. Beside this Century has proved to be the pioneer in number of ways. In 1997, CPIL was the first to introduce the borer proof plywood in India. Over the years Centuryply has introduced the boiling water resistant decorative veneer, seven-year powder proof guaranteed PF plywood, the revolutionary non – leachable Firesafe plywood. The year 2002 brought another laurel to Centuryply when Flexoply, the only flexible plywood variety was introduced. Later, Architect Ply and the Fantasy range of decorative veneer were introduced in India.




In the year 2004, Centuryply’s laminate plant started operation. The best quality laminates ‘Centuryply Mica’ started rolling out and was an instant hit in the market due to its quality and the brand equity of Centuryply.

The moment of pride came in when the Hon’ble Chief Minister of West Bengal, Shree Buddhadev Bhattacharjee inaugurated the Pre – Lam particleboard plant on March 26th 2005. Centuryply also started manufacturing Hi – Pressure Laminates, Pre- Laminated Particle Board and MDF and with this Centuryply completed the full range of manufacturing of plywood and veneer related items. Today Centuryply stands as a one point-manufacturing unit of all kind of plywood related items.

Centuryply, after its inception in 1986, never looked back and has created a name today, which ensures quality and return worth every penny spent by the customer. Centuryply has, over the years, maintained a consistent growth rate. Centuryply was adjudged the Fastest Growing Company with the Highest Turnover by the famous Journal ‘Construction World’ in the year 2003 and 2006. The Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy (CMIE) has also given Centuryply the top position in its surveys.
