Snippet of context:
procédés spécifiques aux matériaux de construction contrecollés croisés
Found this definition on the web:
Le panneau contrecollé-croisé est un procédé fabriqué à partir de lames d'épicéa, contrecollées en au moins 3 plis croisés.
Ce panneau permet de construire planchers, murs ou toitures en dehors de toute contrainte modulaire ou de trame et peut mesurer jusqu'à 10m de long par 4m de haut.
"Contrecollé" is plywood all by itself. But what is is called in English when it is "croisé"?

The "panels" doesn't belong in the translation per se; sorry.

: "Plywood" is practically always croisé. This stuff is not exactly plywood, as one generally understands it, since the smallest three-ply made with it is 75mm thick.

Yes, plus the fact that it can be made in 10m-long, 4m-wide panels. Won't exactly fit on the average home handyman's car-top rack...
