~ Key Features ~
- Birch Outer Layers: The outer layers of EcoForm form board consists of Birch veneer. Birch is chosen for its superior strength, durability, and smoother surface finish. It offers excellent dimensional stability, ensuring the form boards maintain their shape throughout repeated uses. The Birch veneer provides a solid and resilient surface for the formwork, contributing to a high-quality finish on the concrete elements.
- Eucalyptus Inner Layers: Engineered Wood Products Inc. incorporates Eucalyptus wood in the inner layers of EcoForm Birch+ form boards. Eucalyptus provides enhanced strength and structural integrity, enabling the form boards to withstand the pressures and weight of poured concrete over multiple reuse cycles.
- Phenolic Resin: EcoForm Birch+ form boards are bonded together using high-quality phenolic resin adhesive. Phenolic resin is renowned for its exceptional bonding properties, moisture resistance, and durability. The use of phenolic resin ensures reliable performance and extends the lifespan of the form boards.
- Film Facing: EcoForm Birch+ form boards feature a high-quality film facing made of a phenolic resin-impregnated material. This film serves as a protective layer, offering resistance to moisture, chemicals, and abrasion. It ensures a smooth surface finish and facilitates easy release of cured concrete, minimizing the risk of surface defects.
- FSC Certified: EcoForm Birch+ form boards are certified to FSC standards. The FSC certification ensures that the wood used in the production of these form boards comes from responsibly managed forests, promoting sustainable forestry practices and supporting the conservation of natural resources.
