18mm Film Faced Plywood – Standard Grade
Product Overview
Our 18mm film faced plywood is a high-performance concrete formwork panel engineered for general construction applications. Manufactured from premium hardwood veneers and bonded with high‑strength waterproof adhesive, this standard‑grade panel delivers reliable strength, smooth concrete finishes, and excellent reusability at a competitive cost. It is an ideal choice for contractors seeking a balance between quality and economy.
Key Features
-
Strong & Durable – Multi‑layer birch/poplar core with phenolic resin glue ensures high bending strength and impact resistance, supporting multiple reuse cycles (typically 15–25 times) with proper handling.
-
Waterproof & Weather‑Resistant – The film coating on both faces, combined with WBP (water‑boiled‑proof) adhesive, effectively blocks moisture penetration, making the panel suitable for outdoor curing and humid conditions.
-
Smooth Concrete Surface – The dense, non‑absorbent film face creates a flat, smooth finish on poured concrete, reducing or eliminating the need for secondary plastering – saving time and labour costs.
-
Easy to Demould – The low‑friction surface allows clean and quick release from concrete, significantly faster than steel or untreated timber forms.
-
Lightweight Yet Rigid – At about 30–35 kg per standard sheet, it is easy to handle, cut, and install on site, while the 18mm thickness provides ample rigidity for most vertical and horizontal formwork.
-
Cost‑Effective – With 15–25 reuses, this standard grade offers excellent value for medium‑scale projects, delivering reliable performance without over‑specifying.
