The Benefits of Plastic Formwork for Construction

1. The advantages of plastic building templates


Compared with the wood formwork, bamboo plywood, and steel formwork that are widely used at present, the advantages of plastic building formwork are more prominent. This template is resistant to friction, easy to clean, good flame retardancy, long service life, and can withstand huge loads.


Plastic formwork has many turnover times and can be recycled repeatedly. Compared with wood formwork and bamboo plywood, it can reduce project cost. In addition, this kind of template can flexibly adjust the specifications according to the needs of the project, reduce the number of joints, and greatly improve the efficiency of mold support.


2. The economic benefits of using plastic building templates


From an economic point of view, the plastic template can be turned at least 50 times and has a residual value of 50%. The wooden template of the same model can be turned 4 times. The bamboo plywood can be turned 8 times, and the residual value is 0. After comprehensively considering the turnover and residual value, the cost of plastic formwork is 1/6 of that of wood formwork.


According to relevant researches, the plastic used to make plastic templates can also be recycled. After hundreds of turnovers of the plastic template, as long as it is processed, it can be made into a brand-new plastic template again at only a portion of the processing fee.


From the perspective of social benefits, if the building templates no longer use wood as raw materials, tens of millions of big trees can be cut down every year, and the ecological benefits should not be underestimated. Not only that, plastic building templates use renewable plastics as raw materials, which can recycle a large amount of plastic waste and reduce environmental pollution caused by plastic waste.
