Product Specifications
Parameter | Details |
Face Veneers: | AICA DYNEA FILM |
Core: | Cross-banded birch veneers (all-birch construction), providing consistent strength and eliminating voids. |
Thickness: | Commonly 18mm and 21mm (approx. 3/4" and 13/16") for heavy-duty formwork. Other thicknesses like 12mm and 15mm are available for lighter applications. |
Size: | Standard size is 2500mm x 1250mm OR Customization. |
Glue: | Phenolic or Dynea. This makes it highly resistant to moisture and the alkalinity of wet concrete. |
Surface: | Two sides are typically sanded smooth to produce a high-quality concrete finish. |
Film Facing: | Often coated with a dark brown phenolic film on both sides. This overlay dramatically increases the number of reuses, enhances water resistance, and allows for easy release of the concrete. |
Advantages:
✅High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Exceptionally strong and rigid yet relatively lightweight, making it easier to handle and install than many alternatives.
✅Superior Surface Finish: Produces a very smooth, consistent, and aesthetically pleasing concrete surface, often eliminating the need for additional finishing.
✅Excellent Durability & Reusability: The phenolic film facing and all-birch core are highly resistant to abrasion, moisture, and chemicals from concrete. It can
be reused 20-50+ times depending on care, making it cost-effective in the long run.
✅Dimensional Stability: The cross-laminated layers of birch minimize warping, swelling, and shrinking when exposed to moisture, ensuring consistent formwork
dimensions.
✅Easy Handling and Workability: It is easy to cut, drill, and shape on-site without splintering, allowing for quick adaptation to complex formwork designs.
Application:
Birch plywood is the premium choice for demanding concrete formwork applications, including:
✅Walls and Columns: For creating smooth, vertical surfaces.
✅Slabs and Soffits: For horizontal surfaces where strength is critical to support the wet concrete load.
✅Complex Architectural Structures: Ideal for curved walls, ramps, and other intricate designs due to its flexibility and strength.
✅Reusable Formwork Systems: Widely used in gang forms, table forms, and other engineered formwork systems where high reuse is required.
