Film Faced Shuttering Plywood: Superior Strength and Smooth Finish for Concrete Formwork

Film Faced Shuttering Plywood is a high-quality construction material engineered for superior performance in concrete formwork applications. This robust plywood panel combines the strength and stability of hardwood plywood with a durable melamine film overlay, offering a smooth, clean surface for flawless concrete finishes. Its reusable nature contributes significantly to cost-effectiveness and environmental sustainability on construction projects of all sizes.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Superior Strength & Durability: Engineered from high-grade hardwood plywood, Film Faced Shuttering Plywood provides exceptional strength and resistance to bending, warping, and damage during repeated use. This ensures consistent concrete quality and minimizes the risk of formwork failure.
• Smooth Melamine Film Face: The melamine film face offers a smooth, non-porous surface that prevents concrete from sticking. This results in a clean, uniform concrete finish, eliminating the need for extensive post-casting cleaning and minimizing imperfections. The film also provides excellent protection against moisture and abrasion.
• Water Resistance: The melamine film provides a significant barrier against moisture penetration, reducing the risk of swelling, delamination, and damage to the plywood core. This extends the lifespan of the panels and allows for efficient reuse.
• Reusable & Cost-Effective: Designed for multiple uses, Film Faced Shuttering Plywood significantly reduces material costs compared to single-use alternatives. Proper cleaning and maintenance extend its lifespan across numerous projects.
• Precise & Clean Concrete Finishes: The smooth surface ensures that the concrete achieves a clean, professional finish, reducing the need for costly post-casting treatments and ensuring the aesthetic quality of the final product.
• Versatile Applications: Suitable for a wide range of concrete formwork applications, including walls, columns, beams, and slabs in residential, commercial, and industrial construction projects.
• Easy Handling & Installation: The panels are lightweight yet strong, making them easy to handle, transport, and install, improving overall project efficiency.

Specifications: (Note: These are examples and will vary by manufacturer and grade. Always check supplier specifications.)

• Thickness: Available in various thicknesses (e.g., 12mm, 15mm, 18mm) to suit different formwork requirements.
• Size: Standard sheet sizes (e.g., 2440mm x 1220mm) are available, but custom sizes may be possible.
• Grade: Grades vary based on strength and surface quality (e.g., BB/BB, BB/BC).
• Film Type: Various film colours and finishes are available.

Maintenance & Care:

For optimal performance and longevity, clean Film Faced Shuttering Plywood thoroughly after each use to remove any residual concrete. Store panels flat and dry in a protected environment to prevent warping and damage.
