Efficient construction relies on high-quality formwork for buildings. Forms are widely used in the construction industry – from underground tunnels to high-rise buildings. However, it is crucial to select the best-suited System formwork to maintain superior quality and control costs for concrete construction. 

Timber and steel formworks have been used for centuries in construction projects. However, felling trees, disposal of construction waste, etc. result in increased carbon footprint on the planet. Manufacturing formworks like steel also cause certain amounts of environmental degradation – and can increase your construction costs too. 

With rising awareness of sustainable and innovative construction practices, plastic formworks are gaining prominence in India. Nova is a leading formwork company that has been revolutionising the construction industry with cutting-edge ‘Green’ plastic formwork solutions.     

The term ‘plastic’ may trigger your thought that it contributes to large-scale carbon emissions in the environment. However, Nova uses environment-grade, high-quality plastic suitable for sustainable construction. The company has been continuously innovating in the field of formworks, creating solutions that are environment-friendly and reduce waste. 

Nova plastic formwork can completely replace traditional formwork solutions like wood and steel with plastic formwork. As we are aware, formwork is primarily used to hold concrete in place until it reaches its optimum strength. Once the concrete gets its structure and the wall is formed fully, the formwork is removed. This helps make concrete construction easier and more time-efficient. 

Understanding How Nova Plastic Formwork Paves the Way for a Green Revolution 

Nova’s plastic formworks are built from premium-grade plastic materials that aid in sustainable construction. 

• Sustainable formwork design: As a leader in the field of plastic formworks, Nova focuses on resource-efficient and environmentally friendly design. Compared to steel or timber formwork, plastic is lightweight and easier to handle. This makes it easier to use the formworks in adjustments and laying. 

• Improved construction efficiency: Nova specializes in plastic shuttering with a ribbed design and unique molding process that help minimize the formwork’s dead weight and aid in efficient handling. The product’s performance is considerably enhanced by optimally distributing the back ribs and saving the reinforcement materials. This helps improve construction efficiency. 

• Energy efficient construction: One of the primary benefits of using plastic system formwork is the ability to minimize energy consumption during construction and operation. Wood and steel formworks consume high amounts of energy for heating and cooling. On the other hand, plastic is more energy efficient, making it a sustainable construction solution. 

• Durability: Plastic formworks are made from high-quality plastic materials that ensure the long-term durability of concrete structures. The concrete structures that are built using plastic formworks tend to last longer, reducing the need to replace them frequently. 

• Reusability: Nova manufactures high-grade plastic formworks that can be reused until the end of their lifecycle. They are resistant to heat, corrosion, pressure, and weather conditions. This means reduced wastage in the long term. Plastic formworks can also be recycled and reused to make other products.
