For projects of any size
Before plastics, crafting took too long – formwork had to be measured, cut to size, and fixed piece by piece. Recycled plastic formwork provided a variety of predefined modules that could create structural elements of any size, large or small.

Top 4 examples of how plastics improve construction
11 January 2023
There are tasks in construction that plastics are the best at handling. They are light, durable, and easy to mold, which makes them a better option than metal, wood, and cardboard. Here are our top 4 examples of how plastics improve construction:
Pour any structural element
Metal and wood were heavy and time-consuming for small and more demanding structures. Plastic was light, easy to use, and suitable for any structural element. Along with being perfect for floors, columns, walls, and slabs, plastics became irreplaceable for stairs, foundations, beams, and shafts.

Convenient for any worksite
Metal, wood, and cardboard are very demanding for transport, storage, and installation. Plastics are much easier to use in any conditions – you could use it at sea, in the desert, humid, cold, or hot climates.

Quick to learn
Non-plastic formworks have a much longer learning curve. Plastic formwork could be installed by anyone – skilled or unskilled workers learned how to use it in very short time with minimum instructions.
