Not sustainable or cost effective. Look at the amount of labor and processing it takes to make one sheet of plywood! By comparison, plywood manufacture is a simple process. Entire logs are shaved into veneer sheets, rough cut, laminated together then finish cut. 302 Euros for a 4x8x3/4 sheet of 5-ply plywood that's inferior in most ways to hardwood plywood is crazy. By comparison, the same sheet of hardwood A-B grade plywood would run somewhere between $40-$80 a sheet. Trees are a great sustainable and renewable resource, they just take longer to grow.
