Formwork, or shuttering, is a very common solution when creating a temporary structure. The priority factor when carrying out construction work is to maintain the proper shape of freshly poured concrete. The use of a formwork system ensures that this condition is met.

Formwork is a wood construction that is extremely popular. It is indispensable on any construction site, regardless of the nature of the structure's use. Formwork is used both for shuttering commercial buildings and houses.

WHEN IS FORMWORK USEFUL?

Formwork is used in the creation of building foundations, reinforced concrete floors, or the bases of concrete fences. They are also used for formwork for stairs, lintels or rims. Formwork is used as a form that ensures that the expected shape of the concrete mixture is obtained.

It is a common solution that is used not only to give the desired form, but is also ideal for erecting concrete structures.

Formwork supports reinforcing structures when pouring concrete for the ceiling or masonry walls with openings for windows and doors. It can also be used when carrying out earthworks.

In addition, formwork is also useful when carrying out industrial-engineering or sewage works.

MAIN FEATURES OF FORMWORK

It is a reusable system. It is disassembled after the concrete has set. Proper maintenance of the elements significantly extends their life. This allows them to fulfill their role for a long time.

Moreover, formwork is a very important stage in the construction process. Although it is a so-called temporary construction, the accuracy of its execution translates into the solidity and durability of the building.

Foundations, for the erection of which formwork is used, are the basis of any building structure. In fact, on them depends how the entire building will work, as well as the safety of the people in it.

Installation of individual elements of formwork systems is very simple and can be done independently. The products we offer have a high resistance to deformation.
