Reusable Aluminium Column Formwork Red Aluminium Shuttering For Cost Effective Concrete Casting
Reusable Aluminum Frame Formwork For Cost Effective Concrete Casting
The Aluminum Frame Formwork is a hybrid construction solution combining a rigid 6061-T6 aluminum alloy frame with replaceable film-faced plywood panels. Designed for cast-in-place concrete walls, slabs, and columns, it offers the durability of metal with the cost efficiency of plywood, making it ideal for high-repetition projects requiring fast cycle times and minimal plastering.
- Lightweight & Fast Assembly: The aluminum frame is 30% lighter than steel, enabling manual handling without heavy cranes. A simple pin-and-wedge locking system allows for rapid installation and stripping, reducing labor intensity and cutting floor cycle times to 4-7 days.
- High Load Capacity & Stability: Engineered with reinforced ribs, the system safely withstands fresh concrete pressures up to 60 kN/m², ensuring dimensional accuracy and preventing blowouts during pouring.
- Hybrid Durability & Cost Savings: The long-life aluminum frame (reusable 200+ times) paired with replaceable plywood panels offers a lower cost-per-use than full aluminum systems. It produces smooth concrete finishes that often eliminate the need for plastering.
- Frame Material: 6061-T6 Aluminum Alloy (Yield Strength ≥240 MPa)
- Panel Face: 15-18 mm High-Density Film Faced Plywood (WBP or Melamine)
- Standard Sizes: Modular widths 300-1200 mm; Heights 2400 mm, 2700 mm, 3000 mm
- Load Capacity: Maximum concrete pressure 60 kN/m²

- Superior Cost Efficiency: Despite a higher initial investment, its long lifespan, low maintenance, and reduced labor requirements offer the lowest total cost of ownership for repetitive projects.
- Optimal Lifecycle ROI: Offers the best balance of initial cost, high reusability (frames last for hundreds of cycles), and low operational expense, outperforming both steel and wood in repetitive projects.
- Labor & Time Savings: The lightweight design and pin-and-wedge connection system significantly reduce erection and stripping time compared to traditional formwork.
- Zero Waste & High Scrap Value: Aluminum frames are 100% recyclable at end-of-life, providing substantial residual value and supporting sustainable construction practices.
- Optimized for Speed: The lightweight design and quick-connect system are specifically engineered to achieve fast floor cycles (e.g., 4-5 days per floor), reducing overall project duration.
- High Residual Value: Aluminum retains significant scrap value at end-of-life, providing a financial return that wood or plastic systems cannot match.
- Advanced production equipment and 20 years of production experience
- Team of engineers with an average of about 10 years of experience ensures smooth project progress
- Full cycle project services to ensure smooth application of aluminum frame formwork
- Free Consultation Service: You provide us with construction drawings to evaluate which formwork system solution is more cost-effective and provide a detailed quotation list for you.
- Full Process One-on-One Project Team Service: Each project will have an independent team to provide you with professional engineering solution services, business communication services, and on-site construction management services.

Yes, we can provide small size samples. If you need big size samples, you need to pay for them. You will also need to pay for the shipping cost.
We are a subsidiary foreign trade company of a group company, mainly responsible for operating the export business of formwork and scaffolding products. Our group company has two major production bases, specializing in the production and processing of formwork and scaffolding products for over 20 years.
For simple concrete pouring projects with your own engineer, provide us with a bill of materials for quotation. For complex projects like apartments and residences, our professional consultants will develop an application plan based on your engineering architectural drawings and provide a quotation.
A comprehensive range of scaffolding, formwork accessories and safety products for the construction industries. We also design and produce steel items as per client requests, providing all kinds of scaffolding for your needs.
Advanced automated production lines, experienced workers, quality inspection teams, and chemical/physical laboratories ensure high quality products. Our engineering team provides technical support and our sales team offers one-on-one business communication through various platforms.
According to project complexity, it usually takes 30-60 days to complete stocking. We provide more accurate delivery time estimates during the planning and quotation process.
