1. About film faced plywood
Film faced plywood (film-coated plywood, film-coated formwork plywood, film faced formwork, film faced board, and collectively known as formwork plywood) is: A form of industrial plywood widely used in the construction industry domestically and abroadly. Easy to transport, cut to size concrete steel molds, finished on standard production processes Eco Form, Prime Form, Premium Form, subject to great impact during construction. Suitable for high building projects, civil houses, factories, urban works, water treatment tanks, hydroelectric dams...
Film faced plywood is not only a suitable investment product in terms of convenience, shortening construction time, ensuring the correct completion schedule, but also bringing long-term benefits to users.
2. Film faced plywood production process
Film faced plywood, film faced formwork, film-coated formwork are manufactured with the following 3 components: Veneer, adhesive glue and film sheets to form: Film faced plywood formwork.
- Forest wood veneer: each veneer sheet with dimensions of 60cm x 60cm; 65cm x 135cm and 1.8mm thickness
- Veneer is dried and classified according to standards A, B, C for production.
- Plywood''s core is automatically cut according to the size of the board, the length of the domestic and export standard core
- The veneer layers are put into the forming press system (cold pressed). Shaping the links always guarantees the next process.
- After the forming press process is the process of hot pressing the film faced plywood.
- After the hot pressing is completed, workers will refine the surface of the board, cut the edge of the board, process the edge of the board, sand 2 surfaces of the board 2 to 3 times.
- After being processed, the core is eligible to be coated with Dynea film. In this stage, the core will be checked one more time, helping to ensure absolute perfection.
- Cover the film on the core for about 6-8 minutes.
- The process of packing the film faced plywood and coating with waterproof glue on 4 sides of the board, closing and strapping with steel wire.

4. Film faced plywood machine system
Film faced plywood is manufactured with advanced technology and processes at the factory, we always offer complete and optimal construction solutions to contractors..
The standard size of film faced plywood is 1220 x 2440mm commonly, for the domestic market, it is produced based on calculation of pressing techniques. Elastic modules of wood formwork, longitudinal and transverse.
Film faced formwork plywood weight is calculated based on the standard, size and thickness of the board.
Article 5: Film faced plywood' s components
Depending on each factory, manufacturing company, each unit will produce some of their own products.
We are a company that produces film faced formwork boards, using wood core: From planted forest wood, belonging to the hardwood line, which is sliced into 1.8mm thick veneer sheets with different sizes..
Film faced plywood’s standard
- veneer's standards are classified according to: A, B, C. Standard A is for the production of high quality film faced plywood, and standards B and C are for the production of commercial plywood and packaging plywood.
- Glue: Using WBP water-resistant glue, emission of formaldehyde from E1, E2, MR glue for film faced formwork board production.
- WBP waterproof glue with phenol or melamine content is mixed according to the dosage and formula of each glue factory. Our company makes glue according to our own formula, helping to optimize adhesive performance and increase durability in the use of film faced plywood.
- Coating film is a high-quality film in materials that creates a link in the production of low-cost and high-grade film-coated formwork.
- Other catalysts: Anti-termites and moisture: These substances are mixed in our company's glue making process, which is specialized for the production factory..
