Compared to traditional wooden formwork, PP construction formwork has its own characteristics, but PP formwork has a more significant advantage in durability and environmental friendliness. Wooden formwork easily absorbs water and is prone to cracking, deformation, and rotting after repeated use. PP construction formwork, on the other hand, does not absorb water, is moisture-proof, and corrosion-resistant, maintaining stable performance even in humid environments.
Regarding service life, wooden formwork typically has fewer reuses, while PP construction formwork can be reused many more times, reducing formwork procurement costs in the long run. In terms of construction, PP construction formwork has a smooth surface, facilitates demolding, and results in better concrete forming, thus improving project quality.
In terms of environmental protection, PP construction formwork is recyclable, reducing wood consumption and helping to protect forest resources, aligning with the development direction of green construction. Therefore, PP construction formwork is gradually replacing some traditional wooden formwork in an increasing number of engineering projects.
