Nova Formworks - Steel Formwork Suppliers and Manufacturers
Formworks are moulds that can contain concrete
while it is still in its plastic state. In general, the setting time of
concrete is between 24 to 48 hours, but it takes around 28 days to gain full
strength. During this time period, it is important that proper support and
shape is provided to the mix. While formworks were originally made from timber,
steel formworks are fast gaining popularity as a cost-effective alternative.
Nova
Formworks
Since 2004, Wonder Moldplast Pvt. Ltd. has
established itself as a leading manufacturer, trader and exporter of plastic
products. Since then, they have expanded beyond these horizons to manufacture
high-quality plastic formworks as Nova Formworks. They have also pioneered
different types of Aluminium and plastic combined formworks that are largely
used in the construction industry to construct beams, columns and slabs.
Steel
formworks contain thin panels manufactured from steel plates held in place by
angle sections. Not only can they be manufactured in a large number of modules,
but they can also be reused indefinitely. A steel formwork makes it easier to work with curved
sections. They can carry the load of heavy concrete work and can be
manufactured in uniform sizes. Similarly, plastic and aluminium are also used
as formwork material. The advantages include cost reduction and labour-friendly
material.
