Modular Formwork
Our Modular Formwork is a productivity story - "Simple and Smart". By reducing programme, labour and material costs our systems directly improve the profitability of your project.
Formshore supplies the Meva suite of Modular Formwork systems. From the light weight handset AluFix, to the heavier duty StarTec and then the MevaDec slab system, we have all your Formwork requirements covered.
AluFix
The AluFix Handset system is the perfect product for the New Zealand market. With a rated capacity of 50Kn it can handle most operations. AluFix can also be used as a flexible and efficient slab formwork solution. AluFix's lightweight makes manual handling easy and safe - it is a pleasure to use.
Handset systems are ideal for situations where a crane is not on site. On fully serviced sites they give the formworker independence and allow them to continue production regardless of crane availability.
MevaDec
Concrete slab construction is moving away from precast elements for seismic reasons, and MevaDec provides the solution for efficient in-situ slab forming.
With only three components - panel, drop head prop and beam, MevaDec goes up fast. It's designed to be flexible (grids run both ways) so that infill work is minimised. The drophead prop allows the panels and beams to be re-used and the props left in place. Being a handset system, MevaDec is crane independent and can proceed in most weather conditions. Skilled carpentry labour is minimised.
Safety is designed into MevaDec with lightweight hand set panels, minimising body strain injuries. All installation is done from the floor below and MevaDec has an advanced guardrail system for installing mesh, pouring and finishing the new slab.
StarTec and Mammut
For the big jobs you are going to need the high capacity StarTec and Mammut systems. These heavy duty systems are efficient and flexible. Panels can be used vertically and horizontally, the systems share componentry and can be used together.
StarTec is suited to heavy commercial and civil work. The robust panels, universal assembly lock and simple flange nut mean the panels can be installed quickly with minimal ties.
Mammut is the high capacity modular system for industrial construction and civil engineering. With a capacity of 100kn across the entire form face it is the industry leading panel for heavy duty applications.
Alkus
Alkus is the revolutionary form face developed by Meva. Being a composite aluminium / plastic panel, it's impervious to water and so does not swell or crack like plywood.
Alkus is guaranteed for 7 years and can be used up to 1,500 times. It's easy to repair, requires less release agent and can be cleaned by high pressure water blasting without damage.
