To make your square and rectangular columns, we offer a complete range of moisture-resistant cardboard formwork which will give a smooth finish to your concrete.
Metal Cores
We work closely with our clients to provide a core that safely supports metal rolls
In order to correctly specify paper cores for metal industries, not only is it is important to understand the material type, but also to understand a client’s production process and requirements.
In conjunction with the material type (be it stainless steel, aluminium, or other metal sheets) we need to understand the caliper of the material and possible coatings. Depending on the process requirements, we can determine what core design is needed and supply a product with suitable specifications to fulfill your project needs.
Case Study
Solving V-buckle and sag issues
This producer of aluminum coated products uses different cores for different calipers and experience sags and v-buckles in the aluminum, costing up to €30K per roll and damaging the aluminum.
We visited the producer’s sites and performed testing at our Core Competency Centre to optimise cores for each site. As a result, the customer avoided v-buckle and sag issues, saving €30K per damaged roll as well as 5-10% cost savings on core spend through our optimisation project.
