QwikForm Formwork System

Ancon is pleased to announce the launch of QwikForm, an innovative, modular, aluminium formwork system which provides significant advantages over traditional timber and steel formwork.

This rigid freestanding formwork system suits a panel thickness from 150mm to 250mm.

Benefits of QwikForm include:

• Proprietary system, no fabrication or carpentry skills required
• Lightweight, interconnecting, easy to assemble components provide time and labour savings
• Lighter and safer to handle than steel, no crane required
• More rigid, robust and water-resistant than timber
• Accepts QwikMag high strength magnetic clamps to resist side wall pressure during pour

EdjPro Narrow Lifting System 

The new EdjPro Narrow is the latest innovative edge-lifting system from Ancon to preserve that perfect factory finish.

Featuring all the benefits of the established EdjPro system, the EdjPro Narrow features a narrower anchor and recess for thin panels from 100mm. EdjPro Narrow can lift up to 10 tonnes WLL when used with a 20mm tension bar and is ideal where thin panels require a high finish, such as visible and exterior wall applications.

The Edjpro Narrow system comprises anchor, clutch and recess former. A "hairpin" anchor provides maximum anchorage without overstressing the concrete. The clutch provides clearance between the figure-8 link and the concrete at any sling angle, protecting the edge from damage. The recess former accurately and reliably sets the anchor in the concrete panel.

The EdjPro Narrow system complies with the requirements of AS3850.1.2015 and ensures thin panels remain in perfect factory-cast condition, avoiding remedial work and lowering overall costs.
