Birch plywood for heavy building
Empowering demanding construction projects
Thanks to its physical and mechanical properties, birch plywood provides a versatile and sustainable solution in projects where high bending and wear resistance are crucial for a high-quality result.
- Anti-slip properties of various films
- High mechanical endurance
- Excellent strength-to-weight ratio
- Customised products for specialised concrete applications, incl. re-usable products
- Weather-resistant adhesive, moisture-resistant surface
Plywood applications
Formwork systems
Multiple use shuttering formwork systems constructed from further processed birch plywood boards help to reduce the need for new building materials in construction and also minimise waste generation.
Pre-casting
Birch plywood's flexibility in size adjustment makes it a common choice in the industrial production of various concrete components, such as stairs and pillars.
Loose shuttering
Because of their exceptional bending strength, birch plywood boards find extensive application in constructing horizontal concrete covers without the need for formwork systems, thereby enhancing work efficiency.
Scaffolding
Birch plywood is used in the manufacturing of multi-story racks and scaffolding that serve both as platforms for people and for transporting and storing construction materials. Plywood is distinguished by its extended lifespan, durability and excellent anti-slip characteristics.
