It is a wood dealer from Romania, they import the plywood from France, but it is not marine grade, it is just exterior grade okoume. Anyway, everybody here, on the romanian boat construction forums, use mostley okoume with poplar, so i gues mine would be ok, since it is true okoume.
Thenks for help.

My plywood just arrived today. It is produced in France by Groupe-Thebault and has a ' marine' inscription, so I am not worried anymore.
I will start a construction topic right now.

CTBX is good, much better than Chinese Okume. Keep going.
