Using the most current Concrete Form MDO technology, our Crown 48 Hardwood combines a proven melamine resin MDO with hardwood veneer. This high resin content Melamine MDO is more alkaline resistant than traditional phenolic resin based Concrete Form MDO providing a more durable panel for your job site needs.
Features & Benefits
Crown 48 Hardwood is constructed with high strength hardwood face and back veneer and Douglas fir inner plies. The high resin content Melamine MDO is applied in a one-step process. All adhesives used are fully waterproof phenolic resins that meet CSA exterior glue bond standards.
Available in 1220 x 2440 mm and 610 x 2440 mm in 17.5mm thickness
APA Structurally Certified
All of our Hardwood products are structurally certified by the APA and undergo rigorous inspection and testing by our Quality Control team.Hardwood Face and Back
A durable hardwood veneer is used for the face and back providing a smoother pouring surface and a more durable panel than our softwood options.Melamine MDO
Crown 48 is manufactured with a special Melamine MDO which stands up to high-alkaline concrete mixes better than traditional phenolic based concrete form MDO.
Two Piece Inner Plies
Our two piece, Douglas fir inner ply construction method is engineered to provide a more solid panel that can better stand up to job site wear and tear.Multi-Layer Edge Protection
For additional moisture protection, all panels are edge puttied then coated with a dark blue, aluminized, resin-rich alkyd edge seal.Factory-Applied Release Agent
Crown 48 panels come factory coated with Nox-Crete Form Coating, a high quality, water-based, chemically active release agent.
