Lightweight Aluminium Formwork

Shaanxi Flourish's Lightweight Aluminium Formwork revolutionizes construction efficiency with its exclusive "hollow-core reinforced" technology-achieving an ultra-light 18kg/m² (30% lighter than standard aluminum formworks) while maintaining 45kN/m² load-bearing capacity. Crafted for high-rises, narrow sites, and labor-scarce projects, it solves "heavy handling fatigue" and "site access difficulty" of traditional formworks, becoming the first choice for global contractors pursuing speed and cost-effectiveness.

1. Ultra-Light Hollow-Core Structure：Patented hollow-core aluminum panel (4mm surface + 2mm reinforced ribs) reduces weight by 30% vs. solid aluminum formworks. Each 1.2×2.4m panel weighs only 5.2kg-2 workers can carry 10 panels at once (vs. 3 panels for standard aluminum formworks), cutting on-site transportation time by 60%.

2. High-Strength Anti-Deformation：6061-T6 aluminum alloy with "honeycomb internal reinforcement" ensures 45kN/m² load-bearing (fits C30-C50 concrete). 3-point bending test shows deflection ≤2mm under 50kN pressure-no deformation even for high-rise floor pouring (up to 25 floors), outperforming lightweight steel formworks (deflection ≥5mm).

3. Narrow-Site Optimized Design：Single-panel maximum width 1.2m (30% narrower than standard 1.8m panels) and foldable support legs (folded height 15cm) fit narrow stairwells (≥800mm width) and elevator shafts (≤1.5m diameter). No need for crane hoisting-assembled manually, saving $2000/day crane rental cost.

4. Rapid Assembly & Demolding：Modular snap-lock connection (no bolts) enables 2 workers to assemble 60㎡ daily (40% faster than standard aluminum formworks). PTFE anti-stick coating ensures demolding in 3 minutes per 10㎡-no concrete adhesion, reducing labor intensity by 50%.

5. Long-Life Cost-Efficiency：12μm polyester powder coating (salt-spray resistance ≥1200h) ensures 250+ reuses (service life ≥8 years). Lightweight design reduces transportation cost by 25% (1 truck loads 30% more than standard formworks). Over 5 years, total cost is 20% lower than conventional lightweight formworks.

1. Material & Performance：

 Aluminum Alloy: 6061-T6 (density 2.7g/cm³, yield strength 205MPa, tensile strength 310MPa)

 Panel Structure: Hollow-core (4mm surface + 2mm reinforced ribs), honeycomb internal reinforcement

 Weight: 18kg/m² (single 1.2×2.4m panel: 5.2kg)

 Load-Bearing: 45kN/m² (suitable for C30-C50 concrete)

 Coating: Polyester powder coating (12μm), salt-spray resistance ≥1200h, reusability ≥250 times

2. Modular Components：

 Panel: 1200×2400mm, 900×2400mm (hollow-core, PTFE anti-stick coating)

 Support: Foldable steel legs (adjustable height 1.5-3m, folded height 15cm, load capacity 8kN/leg)

 Fastener: Stainless steel snap-lock (service life ≥500 uses, locking time 5s/piece)

3. Application Parameters：

 Wall Formwork: Thickness 100-300mm, height 2.4-4.8m

 Column Formwork: Diameter 200-600mm, height 2.4-5m

 Floor Formwork: Span ≤3.5m (suitable for residential floors, small commercial floors)

 Narrow-Site Adaptation: Minimum working space ≥800mm (stairwells, elevator shafts)

Installation Steps：

Unfold supports → adjust to target height (use spirit level) → lock with snap-lock

Align panels → connect with snap-lock (5s/piece) → check flatness (error ≤2mm/m)

Apply PTFE release agent (1 coat is enough, no need for thick coating)

Demolding & Storage：

Unlock snap-lock → lift panels (2 workers for 10 panels) → clean with water

Fold supports → stack panels ≤8 layers (avoid heavy pressure)

Store in ventilated area (avoid direct sunlight to protect coating)

Maintenance Tips：

Weekly: Check snap-lock for wear (replace if teeth are damaged)

Monthly: Wipe panels with neutral detergent (remove concrete residue)

Annually: Touch up coating on scratched areas (use matching polyester paint)

1. Is it suitable for high-strength concrete (C60)?

：Yes-we offer "high-pressure reinforcement kits" (add 1mm thick panel surface + reinforced supports) to increase load-bearing to 55kN/m², fitting C60 concrete.

2. Can it be used for curved walls/columns?

：Absolutely-custom curved panels (radius ≥1m) with flexible snap-locks adapt to curved structures, no need for on-site cutting.

3. What's the difference from other lightweight formworks?

：Most lightweight formworks use thin solid panels (easy to deform), while ours adopts hollow-core + honeycomb reinforcement-lighter and stronger. Our snap-lock is 3x faster than bolt connections of competitors.
