3 Plywood Formwork Panels
3 plywood formwork panels, also known as 3-plywood shuttering panel sheets, are made from 3 layers of solid veneers adhesively bonded with 0.3- 0.5 mm thick MUF (Melamine Urea Formaldehyde) or Phenolic glue between. They are normally yellow in colour, so also called yellow formwork panels.
The 3-ply formwork panels are strong and durable and are used in large formwork concrete projects. They can be repeatedly used 30-50 times if handled and stored correctly. Thus, they save costs in the long term.
