Smooth Finish Concrete Formwork
Designed for smooth, pore-free concrete surfaces requiring no secondary finishing
Suitable for fair-faced (exposed) concrete and repetitive formwork applications
Dadi's Smooth Finish Concrete Formwork consists of cross-laminated hardwood veneers bonded with high-strength waterproof adhesive, finished with a phenolic resin-impregnated film on both sides. The film surface provides low water absorption and high resistance to alkali attack from fresh concrete. Edge sealing prevents moisture ingress during repeated use. The panel maintains dimensional stability under concrete pressure, ensuring consistent surface quality across multiple pour cycles. This formwork system has been widely adopted in major infrastructure projects, demonstrating reliable performance under diverse site conditions.

FAQ
Q: How many reuse cycles can Smooth Finish Concrete Formwork achieve?
A: Under standard site conditions with proper handling-including edge sealing, cleaning without steel tools, and storage on flat, dry surfaces-the panels typically achieve 8 to 12 pours before film wear affects surface appearance.
Q: What adhesive types are available, and which is recommended for high-moisture environments?
A: Phenolic adhesive offers the highest water resistance and is recommended for applications involving prolonged exposure to moisture or multiple reuse cycles. WBP (Water Boiled Proof) adhesive provides reliable performance for standard applications, while melamine adhesive is suitable for interior or low-moisture conditions.
Q: What quality control measures are applied during production?
A: Each production batch undergoes testing for bending strength, modulus of elasticity, water absorption, and film adhesion to ensure compliance with specified parameters before shipment.
