Shuttering Plywood is usually made from softwood, which makes it incredibly lightweight and robust. Although it is not designed with aesthetic considerations, the face of the wood can be softly coloured to give it a pinewood impression. Shuttering plywood is a term quite commonly used in the construction industry. The shuttering process – pouring the concrete into moulds – cannot happen without using shuttering plywood. This is a kind of plywood which is designed in a way to prevent concrete from coming out of the mould. This material is not used for aesthetic purposes, but to hold concrete till it densifies to form a solid structure. It is weather resistant and doesn’t stick to the concrete itself.
