Constructing vertical core walls and shear walls in multi-story commercial towers generates massive lateral hydrostatic pressure from fresh, self-compacting concrete. Using thin or weak plywood results in bulging walls, misaligned structural joints, and structural non-compliance. NQ Formwork Plywood Co., Ltd. produces reinforced 18mm Heavy-Duty Film-Faced Plywood engineered specifically to eliminate concrete wall deflection.

Engineering Core Strength for High-Rise Demands

• Cross-Laminated Eucalyptus Plies: Multi-layer eucalyptus veneers provide the flexural modulus required to prevent panel bowing under high-rate concrete pumping.

• 15 to 20 Repetitions Without Core Warping: Reinforced with self-formulated phenolic internal glue, our 18mm shuttering panels maintain structural flatness across 15 to 20 consecutive pours.

• High-Density Phenolic Surface Film: Guarantees a mirror-smooth concrete surface that meets international architectural fair-face standards.

Standard Dimensions Available for Commercial Core Walls

• 2440×1220mm (4×8ft): The primary dimension for modular steel and timber climbing formwork systems in the Middle East.

• 1830×1220mm (4×6ft): Customized dimension for specialized core wall dimensions.
