Flexible column formwork system using lightweight panels and easy-fit walers
What is VertiPro?
VertiPro is the name of MFE’s column formwork, a temporary concrete mould to shape and support columns while the concrete cures and gain strength. It ensures the column achieves its desired shape, size, and dimensions.
Strong yet lightweight, MFE’s VertiPro are designed to form different column sizes with an easy-fit waler system for rapid assembly and striking.
