Shuttering Plywood Sheet 2440 x 1220mm – 18mm (8″ x 4″)

Our 18mm Shuttering Plywood 2440mm x 1220mm (8′ x 4′) is an essential, high-performance sheet material engineered for demanding construction applications. This robust plywood, often referred to as formwork plywood or film-faced plywood, provides exceptional strength and durability, making it the ideal choice for concrete shuttering and a wide range of temporary structural uses.

Designed to withstand the rigours of building sites, our shuttering plywood ensures reliable support for wet concrete during the curing process, delivering a smooth finish and facilitating easy demoulding.

Key Features and Specifications

• Dimensions: 2440mm x 1220mm (8′ x 4′) sheet size, 18mm thickness.
• Material Composition: Constructed from multiple layers of high-quality softwood (often Elliotis Pine) or hardwood veneers, bonded with waterproof phenolic resins for superior integrity.
• Surface Finish: Typically features a smooth, often phenolic film-faced surface, enhancing water resistance and ensuring a clean concrete finish.
• High Strength & Durability: Engineered to offer excellent load-bearing capacity and resistance to impact, pressure, and wear, suitable for heavy-duty applications.
• Moisture Resistant: Utilises exterior-grade glue bonds (e.g., EN 314-2 Class 3) and often a protective film to resist moisture and prevent delamination in humid or wet conditions.
• Reusability: Designed for multiple uses, offering significant cost-efficiency over the lifespan of a project with proper care.
• Structural Certification: Often certified to meet structural performance requirements such as EN 12871 and EN 636-2 for load-bearing applications.
• Low Emissions: Conforms to E1 low formaldehyde emission standards, contributing to better indoor air quality.

Applications

This versatile 18mm shuttering plywood is indispensable across various construction and trade projects:

• Concrete Formwork: The primary use, creating temporary moulds for casting concrete elements such as slabs, columns, beams, walls, and foundations.
• Site Hoarding & Temporary Structures: Ideal for robust site hoardings, temporary fencing, ramps, and protective barriers due to its strength and weather resistance.
• General Construction: Suitable for sub-flooring, roofing, shelving, packaging, and other general building and renovation work where a strong, stable panel is required.
