What Plywood Panels does

SPA Sperrholz-Platten AG (operated under the trade name Plywood Panels) is a privately held Swiss B2B distributor of wood-based panel materials headquartered at Neumattstrasse 6, 5000 Aarau, Switzerland, with operations focused domestically in the Canton of Aargau. Founded in 1933 and operating with 11–50 employees, the company sells plywood (Sperrholz) in birch, beech, oak, ash, spruce and exotic species, alongside a broad engineered-wood range including MDF, HDF, CDF, XDF, OSB/MFP, compact plates, design panels, joinery panels, solid wood panels, construction timber, decorative laminates under the VIVACOLOR house brand, parquet under VIVAPARKETT, and design panels under VIVADESIGN. The catalog additionally covers floor coverings, fire protection panels, insulation materials, interior and exterior doors, roof windows from VELUX and Roto, veneer/lumber, and bonding/sealing products, with sustainability certifications FSC MIX 70% and PEFC 70%/100% on key plywood lines.

The company serves wood-processing tradespeople — carpenters, cabinetmakers, furniture manufacturers and related construction professionals — exclusively through a registration-gated B2B e-commerce platform at spa-aarau.ch, supplemented by field sales and inside sales. Pricing is quote-based in Swiss Francs per billing unit (m2/St/kg/m1), excluding VAT, with a standardized transport surcharge of 4.5% (min CHF 39, max CHF 290 per delivery), and prices are subject to change based on the delivery day's rates. No public revenue, app, API, or disclosed leadership team is reported, and the firm shares e-commerce infrastructure, terms and conditions, and customer logins with affiliated company Herzog-Elmiger AG, which also operates in Aarau and Kriens, Switzerland, consistent with a closely held or family-owned specialty trading model.
