ABS or PP? Choosing the Right Polymer for Your Formwork

Both ABS and PP panels are available across our range. The right choice depends on impact exposure, temperature and the surface finish your project demands.
Our panels are moulded from new ABS or PP, and the choice between them is a genuine engineering decision rather than a marketing one.
ABS
ABS offers high impact strength and excellent surface reproduction, which makes it a strong default for visible concrete where finish matters and panels are handled frequently.
PP
Polypropylene brings outstanding chemical resistance and thermal stability, performing reliably from −20 °C to +60 °C — a good fit for aggressive environments and hot climates.
Both materials deliver a high-turnover product with zero waste discharge at end of life. Tell us about your site conditions and we will recommend a material.
