Southeast Asian demand surges, PVC Plastic Construction Formwork replace wood templates as the main material
2026/04/16
Many Southeast Asian countries have a high-temperature, high-humidity, and rainy climate. Traditional wooden building templates are easily susceptible to moisture, rot, delamination, and deformation, resulting in extremely low reuse rates and continuously high construction costs.
Industry data shows that PVC Plastic Construction Formwork has occupied over 60% of the Southeast Asia formwork market, thanks to its super strong water and moisture resistance, as well as its corrosion and wear resistance.
Among countries like Malaysia, Indonesia, and Vietnam, demand for high-rise buildings and municipal residential projects has surged, with the annual average growth rate of PVC Plastic Construction Formwork reaching 25%. It completely addresses the pain points of traditional formwork construction in humid environments, becoming the preferred shoring material for local construction projects.
