Hardform Formply

Crafted from premium hardwood veneers bonded with an A-grade resin, Hardform formply undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure a smooth finish and withstand the demands of concrete formwork.

Durable and reusable, Hardform is constructed with cross-banded veneers and top-quality phenolic surfaces, providing users with bi-directional strength (F14 or F17) and exceptional dimensional stability.

Capable of achieving a Class 2 finish on the first pour (per AS/NZ3610-2007), Hardform requires proper installation techniques including adequate expansion distances between sheets, use of release agents, tapes, and secure perimeter fixings. (Class 2 finish – AS/NZ3610 -2007 requires a test pour to confirm the finish).

Versatile and cost-effective, Hardform formply finds application in:

• Optimized form systems like table forms and jump forms;
• Steel or timber form frame systems; and
• Various frame spacings, slab thicknesses, and surface tolerances (subject to AS/NZ3610 structural design requirements and panel F rating).
