Formply

The range of Structural and Non-Structural Formply includes the following types:

• Structural Formply
• Non-Structural Formply
• Non-Structural Formply Gripdeck

Structural Formply

This is an industry standard formwork panel for use in limited visual applications such as concreting.

When used in conjunction with good concreting practices, it achieves a Class 3 off-form finish in accordance with the Australian Standard AS/NZS 2269.

Non-Structural Formply

This “non-structural” plywood can be used in applications where a structural rating is not required. This includes cement applications that do not require structural strength, such as with tilt slabs, gutters and driveways.

Non-Structural Formply Grip Deck (Non-Slip)

Grip Deck is a high performance, non-structural grade plywood constructed from selected tropical hardwood veneers and manufactured using advanced veneering technology. A phenolic film is laminated onto both the external faces and the edges of the sheets coated with a water resistant sealant.

This produces a sturdy and durable plywood product that is highly resistant to load impact, abrasion and water ingress. Grip Deck may be of standard or multi-ply construction.

The inherent resistance characteristics of Grip Deck and the embossed “Anti-Slip” high density overlay film face on one side (the other face having a high density smooth overlay) which makes it an ideal product for use in scaffolding, marina decks, and other applications.
