Formwork & Accessories in Lake Macquarie
Accessories
Concrete Colour Solutions supplies a large range of accessories for concrete formwork, including edge form boards, hardwood/steel pegs, rebate brackets and kerb bows. We also provide pier liners and formtubes, which are used in the forming of foundation piers.
Column/Architectural (Smooth Finish) Tubes
Column tubes are available in a spiral finish or to achieve a smoother, higher standard of surface finish on the concrete column. A durable plastic liner can be inserted within the metal or plastic form/column tube.
Class 1 – 2 finishes are possible with lined plastic or a metal column tube. Although this depends on the concrete properties and installation methods used.
Once stripped, this minimises rendering, and should be used in areas where attention to detail is required. Please note, with the wrapped tube a high-quality finish may not be achieved at the jointing point.
Pier Liners/Formtubes
Pier liners, formtubes and column formers are available in cardboard, metal or plastic. They come in stock lengths of 4m, or alternatively they can be cut to suit your job requirements.
Concrete Colour Solutions provides a variety of tube diameters and shapes. They can be tapered, sloped and even wrapped where top fitting is not available.
Delivery to your job site can be arranged promptly, otherwise they can be picked up instore.
Suspended Floor Systems
Concrete Colour solutions can supply Lysaght BONDEK®, which is a proven solution for suspended floor and ceiling systems.
