SHANON FILM FACED SHUTTERING PLY

Shanon Film Faced Shuttering Ply are compressed and densified panels used mainly for formworks in construction. These panels are composed by aligning several layers of phenolic resin-coated veneers, each placed at right angles to each other. The top and bottom veneers are coated with a double layer of water-repellent phenolic films such that the top film on either side is backed by a highly absorbent kraft sheet which increases abrasion-resistant and water-resistant properties.

Shanon Shuttering Ply possesses balanced construction both parallel and perpendicular to the panel with equal strength in both directions. The phenolic layer is free from dents or pitches on the surface and thus possesses a mirror-like finish which imparts a smooth surface to concrete structures. The ply is non-corrosive and can withstand a highly alkaline medium with cement concrete. Shanon Film-Faced Shuttering Ply maintains unchanged technical characteristics throughout the whole period of use which results in more repetitions than conventional plywoods, thus increasing the value for money of the plywood.

Used for formwork in the construction of flyovers, bridges, tunnels, multi-storied high rises, concrete molds, and precast.

Tips for Maintenance :

• Clean and Oil the surface before use. The surface should be recoated with mold oil before the next use.
• Apply sealants such as chlorinated rubber paint at the cut edges before use.
• Side screwing and nailing should not be performed on the ply.
• Should be stored in packs on a flat and raised surface in a dry, covered place with free circulation of air for better repetitions.
• Care should be taken during transportation to avoid scratches, plywood should not be dragged over one another to avoid scratches.
