Plywood is an ideal material for concrete forming. It produces smooth surfaces and can be used repeatedly – some overlaid panels up to 200 times or more. The thinner panels can be bent easily for curved forms and liners. Plywood’s excellent stiffness minimizes deflection during pouring. It’s natural insulating qualities help proved more consistent curing conditions. The large panel size and light weight reduce form construction and stripping time. Various surface textures are available for imparting attractive and unusual concrete textures. |
