Carbon Black in the M-16-BE configuration is a deep saturated near-black panel from Europly's premium plywood line. The "M-16-BE" code indicates: M-grade balanced face, 16mm thickness, BE (beveled) edge profile. Built for cabinet doors, drawer fronts, and architectural millwork at balanced budget points.
M-Grade Plus Beveled Edge
The M-grade face sits between B-grade structural panels and T-grade display panels in face quality, suited to mid-tier cabinet applications and visible cabinet construction where surface quality matters but premium-grade pricing is unnecessary. Combined with the BE beveled edge profile, the M-16-BE specification suits balanced-budget projects that still want refined architectural detail.

Best Application
Modern transitional kitchens with refined character at balanced budget points, contemporary residential remodels with extensive cabinetry runs, multifamily and hospitality projects where consistent finish across many panels matters, and design-build projects where the beveled edge adds architectural quality without premium-grade pricing on each panel.
Pairing Direction
Brushed brass, aged brass, and unlacquered brass hardware register beautifully against the deep dark base. Polished chrome and matte black both work as lower-contrast alternatives. For counters, white-veined quartz, soft Calacatta look-alikes, and warm cream marble all pair cleanly with the dark cabinetry.
Fabrication Notes
The 16mm thickness with M-grade face and beveled edge suits balanced-budget cabinet applications. Beveled corner joints require precise miter cuts.
