Assuming it’s a type of flooring?

It came with some aluminum van shelves from Canada. I tried to contact the manufacturer and they wouldn’t tell me anything about it.
I don’t know what it’s called but they use this in certain contractor vans. For instance I know the dodge pro masters have this in the upgraded flooring. It’s pretty nice stuff from what I’ve experienced.

Here’s a new van we are outfitting now.

Awesome! Thanks! Looks like they have a distributor in Dallas. Gonna have to see if I can find one in Houston.
I knew that comp would be the guy to ask, not surprised to see him nonchalantly come to the rescue, haha.
Those look like Ranger shelves. Mine came with a typical black laminate plywood that’s held up very well. That laminate looks like it’ll do the job nicely, too. Ranger stuff kicks serious ass.
Saw this, hope it helps? http://dayouplywood72.en.hisupplier.com/product-735883-black-film-faced-plywood-Brown-film-faced-plywood.html
It’s an anti-slip surface plywood for outdoor use.
Bufflao ply
Going to use it in my next van
Mr Yellow uses it on his van creations

Matt is right. I used the exact same stuff for the flooring and shelves in my van and for the worktable. It’s from Wisa indeed 🙂

Thanks. I recall you saying Shuttering plywood and nobody around here knew what the heck I was talking about. When the racks showed up at the shop, I had to start looking again as someone must have it in the US because the Ranger shelves came with it.
I’m still struggling to find any supplier in the US though. [emoji35][emoji35][emoji35][emoji35][emoji35][emoji35]
True. That was because I didn’t had a clue how they call this kind of ply in the US/UK [emoji16]
So I looked it up and shuttering ply came up as a term.
Buffalo ply is another term, like Matt said.

I found a place in Houston that supposedly specializes in Marine plywoods. So I’m hoping they have some sort of Phenolic plywood such as the Wisa.
I have officially exhausted all efforts and resources to find this wood in the Texas. [emoji25]
Did you try the distributor and asked for local dealer?
If you have a willing dealer he could possibly order it in for you…

Its Anti-slip flooring you could probably use it for shelves so your tools can’t slide around

Yes. I even contact manufacturers to see if they knew of anyone in Texas that has ordered it or may stock it.
I thought I found someone but after I told him I wanted 10-15 sheets, he stopped responding to me. Guess it wasn’t a big enough order for him to mess with.
I also had someone that apparently didn’t understand my original inquiry, when I got down to getting ready to order, the quote had black melamine on it which is quite different.
