Film Faced Plywood for Concrete Formwork

Durable, Smooth, and Reusable – Engineered for Quality Construction

Key Advantages of HTR Film Faced Plywood

Engineered to deliver strength, smooth finish, and reusability — our film-faced plywood offers a balance of quality and cost efficiency for concrete formwork.

High Strength & Durability

Reinforced core resists bending and cracking during pouring.

Smooth Surface Finish

Phenolic film delivers mirror-like concrete finish and less polishing.

Reusable up to 10 Times

Waterproof film and sealed edges extend service life.

Waterproof Protection

Four-side edge sealing prevents delamination and moisture.

Eco-Friendly Materials

FSC certified sources and an adhesive system confirmed to order.

Cost Efficiency

Lower cost per use compared to steel or aluminum formwork.
