Customer Benefits
- EFCO DECK® system provides a 6′ x 8′ (1,830 mm x 2,440 mm) maximum footprint which is larger than others, thus reducing the number of posts substantially. There are few parts to handle, less labor to assemble and strip, and wider work aisles for better access.
- Light, quick to assemble and requires less manpower, HAND-E-FORM® was the perfect solution. The all-steel face sheet extends to the edge of the panel, giving you consistent concrete texture from one joint to another. The face sheet will produce smooth concrete walls regardless of the number of uses.
Moving the posts in the supplied racks was a big time saver. We could move posts from floor to floor with minimal effort and time.
