Plywood is a staple in construction and is used across various applications, from furniture to formwork. However, not all plywood is the same. One of the most common distinctions in construction is between shuttering plywood (shuttering ply) and regular plywood. While both are made from layers of wood veneer bonded together, their intended use, durability, […]

In the construction world, every material choice impacts not just the project at hand but the industry. For decades, timber-based shuttering has been the default choice for formwork. It’s familiar, widely available, and seemingly cost-effective—until you factor in material degradation, frequent replacements, and the long-term environmental cost of deforestation. Imagine a solution that lasts longer,

In industries like construction and manufacturing, efficient material handling is critical. Whether it’s fly ash bricks, paving blocks, or concrete, the pallet you choose directly impacts your operations, cost, and long-term sustainability. Traditional wooden pallets may have been the go-to solution for decades, but plastic pallets made from recycled materials have redefined the industry by

In the world of logistics, construction, and manufacturing, pallets play a pivotal role in ensuring the efficient movement and storage of goods. When choosing between plastic pallets and wooden pallets, businesses must weigh factors such as durability, cost, sustainability, and specific use cases like stacking fly ash bricks or paving blocks. This blog explores the

The construction world is evolving rapidly, with sustainability becoming a central focus. Fly ash brick manufacturers, in particular, are realising the benefits of adopting environmentally friendly practices. Among these advancements, recycled plastic pallets have emerged as a game-changer, offering unmatched durability, sustainability, and efficiency in brick manufacturing and handling. This blog explores why recycled plastic

In the fast-paced construction world, efficiency, durability, and cost-effectiveness remain the cornerstones of any successful project. As sustainability increasingly becomes a priority, innovative materials like plastic shuttering boards are taking centre stage. Whether it’s column shuttering material, drain shuttering, or plastic shuttering for concrete, these boards are proving to be an eco-friendly alternative and a

The importance of reliable and durable materials in the construction industry cannot be overstated, especially when stacking and transporting bricks, concrete blocks, and fly ash bricks. Traditionally, plywood has been the go-to material for these tasks. However, recycled plastic pallets are emerging as a superior alternative, revolutionising how bricks are stacked, transported, and stored. These

The construction industry has long relied on traditional materials like wood, metal, and concrete for building projects. However, a growing need for sustainability, durability, and cost-efficiency has shifted toward innovative alternatives. One of the most promising breakthroughs is using recycled plastic in construction materials, particularly for shuttering sheets and other structural applications. This change is

Plastic shuttering boards have revolutionised the construction industry, offering durability, sustainability, and exceptional reusability. When used correctly, these boards can provide over 50 repetitions, far exceeding the lifespan of traditional plywood. As we step into 2025, let’s explore how to maximise the reusability of plastic shuttering boards, ensuring cost-efficiency and optimal performance for your construction

Introduction: The Year of Change As 2024 draws to a close, it’s remarkable to reflect on our progress in sustainable construction. At WoWMaterials, this year has been one of the milestones—innovations launched, partnerships forged, and a growing shift towards eco-friendly building practices. One standout in this journey has been the rising adoption of plastic plywood.
