Heavy-Duty Construction – Multi-layered, cross-laminated veneers give the sheet exceptional structural stability, resisting bending or deflection under the pressure of wet concrete.

Reusable & Cost-Effective – With correct handling and use of release agents, panels can be reused multiple times, reducing waste and cost per pour.
