WoWShuttering plastic centring sheet is rated 5.0 / 5.0 stars (By 358 customers)
Centring sheets are a special type of material used in the construction industry to create temporary moulds or formwork that support concrete until it gains sufficient strength and sets properly.

Centring sheets are temporary structures used in the construction industry to support wet concrete until it hardens and gains sufficient strength to stand on its own. They form part of the formwork system, which shapes concrete slabs, beams, and columns during casting.
Traditionally, centring sheets are made by bonding multiple layers of wood veneers using strong adhesives to create shuttering plywood. These sheets are designed to be smooth, durable, and capable of withstanding the weight and pressure of freshly poured concrete. In modern construction, recycled plastic sheets are increasingly being used as centring sheets because they are waterproof, reusable, and resistant to warping or swelling, making them a more sustainable and long-lasting alternative to conventional plywood.
Why Switch from Traditional Shuttering Plywood?
Durability and Reusability
While shuttering plywood is widely used in formwork due to its relatively low cost, its life span is limited. Plywood can only be used a limited number of times before it weakens, warps, or sustains damage, especially when exposed to water.
Plastic centring sheets, on the other hand, offer up to 2.5 times more repetitions, drastically reducing material replacement costs over time. The inherent strength of recycled plastic sheets ensures they can withstand the rigours of multiple uses without losing their integrity.
Waterproof
Unlike shuttering plywood, which is prone to absorbing moisture, leading to warping and a shorter lifespan, plastic centring boards are completely waterproof. This makes them an ideal choice for construction projects in damp or rainy conditions.
Plastic centring sheets resist expansion, contraction, and other issues caused by water exposure, giving you peace of mind for long-lasting durability. Shuttering plywood is phenolic film faced for water resistance but in case of recycled plastic boards it is not required.
Eco-Friendly Alternative
Switching to recycled plastic sheets is not only better for your project but also better for the planet. Traditional plywood alternatives, like plastic ply and pvc plywood, are made from recycled plastic, reducing the need for cutting down trees and promoting the use of recycled materials.
WoWShuttering contributes to the circular economy by ensuring no material goes to the landfill—unlike shuttering plywood, which cannot be recycled once damaged.

| Reusability | 2.5x more reusable than shuttering plywood (50+ repetitions) | 3–5 times on average |
| Weight | Heavier | Comparatively lighter |
| Warping/Swelling | No warping or swelling | Prone to warping and swelling |
| Termite & Fungus Resistance | Fully resistant | Susceptible to damage |
| Surface Finish | Smooth and uniform | May degrade over time |
| Maintenance | Easy to clean and maintain | Requires drying and storage care |
| Eco-Friendliness | Made from recycled plastic and aluminium | Uses wood, contributes to deforestation |
| Cost Efficiency (long-term) | High (due to extended reuse life) | Low (due to frequent replacements) |
| Waste Generation | Minimal | High (after few uses) |
The Advantages of Recycled Centring Sheets
High Repetition Rate
Recycled plastic centring sheets offer up to 2.5x more uses compared to traditional shuttering plywood. This means you can reuse the same sheets across multiple projects, cutting down on costs and waste.
Termite-Proof
One of the major drawbacks of shuttering plywood is its vulnerability to termites and rotting over time. Plastic plywood and plastic ply boards are completely termite-proof and do not degrade like their wooden counterparts, ensuring longevity.
Easy to Handle
Despite its superior strength, plastic shuttering plywood is easy to handle. This results in faster setup and breakdown times on-site, saving you labour costs and increasing efficiency.
Smoother Finish
For builders seeking high-quality finishes, plastic shuttering sheets offer a much smoother surface compared to plywood alternatives. This ensures a better end result, with fewer imperfections in the concrete, reducing the need for post-treatment and surface corrections.

FAQs for Shuttering Plywood
Centring sheets are temporary structures or panels used in construction to support wet concrete until it hardens and gains sufficient strength. They form part of the formwork system, providing the base or mould that shapes slabs, beams, and columns during casting. Traditionally made from wood or plywood, centring sheets are now also produced from recycled plastic, offering a more durable, waterproof, and eco-friendly alternative.
The lifespan of centring sheets depends on the material used. Traditional wooden or plywood centring sheets typically last for 5 to 10 uses, as they tend to absorb moisture and warp over time. In contrast, recycled plastic centring sheets can last for 50+ uses, thanks to their waterproof, non-stick, and corrosion-resistant properties. This makes plastic centring sheets a more durable and cost-effective option for long-term construction projects.
Yes, it can be reused multiple times if it is cleaned and stored properly after each use. However, the number of reuses depends on the material quality and handling during construction.
Plastic centring sheets usually comes in standard thicknesses like 12mm, 18mm, and 21mm. The thickness used depends on the load-bearing requirement of the structure being cast.
Traditional shuttering plywood is not eco-friendly, as it requires cutting trees and generates a lot of waste. Recycled plastic centring sheets like WoWBoards are more sustainable.
Yes, centring sheets are widely used for slabs, beams, columns, walls, and foundations. However, for more complex or repeated work, plastic or composite alternatives may perform better.
Yes, plastic centring sheets are ideal for outdoor use due to its resistance to moisture, water and any weather conditions.
While the initial cost is on par with centring sheets, its durability and reusability make it more cost-effective over time compared to traditional plywood.
Some shuttering plywood is treated to be water-resistant (commonly known as film-faced plywood), but it is not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to water can still cause swelling and warping.
Yes, centring sheets can be cut, drilled, and shaped using standard tools, just like traditional plywood.
