Film Faced Plywood (Formwork Plywood)

Film faced plywood is waterproof & wear-resistant plywood specially for concrete casting. It is hot-pressed by multi-layer wood veneers with WBP phenolic waterproof glue, covered with high-density phenolic resin film on both sides, and all four edges are sealed for waterproofing. As the core matching panel of steel frame formwork and traditional timber formwork, it delivers excellent demolding effect and can be reused many times, suitable for various domestic and overseas construction projects including buildings, bridges and water conservancy infrastructure.

• Perfect concrete finishing effect
  Flat and smooth high-density phenolic film brings less pitting and air bubbles after demolding. Concrete components own neat edges, which largely reduces later plastering & repair work and improves construction acceptance quality.
• Outstanding waterproof & weather resistance
  Adopted WBP waterproof glue and full edge sealing craft, the board is moisture-proof, corrosion-resistant and anti-sun. It will not delaminate easily in coastal, rainy or high-temperature construction sites, fit all harsh environments worldwide.
• High reusability & low overall cost
  The wear-resistant surface and stable core support dozens of repeated turnovers, cutting single-time material cost greatly compared with ordinary timber boards.
• Universal compatibility with all formwork systems
  Standard sizes perfectly match domestic and overseas steel frame formwork & aluminum shoring systems. It can replace old panels directly without modifying form frames.
• Easy on-site processing
  The plywood can be freely cut, drilled and nailed to adapt to special-shaped beams, columns, curved surfaces and non-standard sizes, offering high construction flexibility.

• Cast-in-place formwork for walls, slabs, square columns and round columns of residences, commercial complexes and factories
• Formwork projects for bridge box girders, coping beams, piers and caps of highway & railway
• Lining formwork for urban tunnels, utility tunnels and culverts
• Water conservancy concrete structures including reservoirs, dams and retaining walls
• One-stop supporting procurement matched with steel framed formwork and shoring systems
