Formworks for columns are one of the most representative products of the company since its origins. The polystyrene foam can withstand concrete pressure up to 120 kn/m2, and it can be shaped in the most varied forms.

The resin coating is applied by spraying, then sanded to obtain smooth fair facings. A male and female joint system allows the alignment between the two halves of the reusable formworks. Arbloc offers both reusable and single-use solutions according to the needs.
