1. Huge Consumption of Steel, Bamboo, and Wood in my country's Construction Formwork Industry
With the continuous launch of various construction projects in my country, the formwork industry has developed rapidly. It is estimated that the average annual growth rate of my country's construction formwork industry will be around 15% from 2011 to 2012; by the end of 2012, the output of my country's construction formwork industry will reach approximately 220 million square meters.
2. Astonishing Consumption of Steel and Wood in Construction Formwork, Serious Waste of Resources
my country's annual production of new steel formwork is 39.7 million square meters, which, if converted to weight, is equivalent to the steel used in 27 Beijing National Stadiums (Bird's Nest).
3. Social Benefits of Wood-Plastic Composite Formwork Replacing Traditional Formwork
Under my country's active response to climate change and vigorous promotion of energy conservation and emission reduction, if alternative materials such as steel, bamboo, and wood can be used in the construction formwork industry, the environmental and social benefits will undoubtedly be enormous. The market demand for construction formwork is over 200 billion yuan, and wood-plastic composite formwork will occupy 30%-50% of the market share in the next 3-5 years, with an output value exceeding 60 billion yuan, indicating a very promising market prospect. Extensive application.
When used as building formwork, wood-plastic composite materials can significantly improve construction efficiency and shorten construction time. Compared with traditional formwork, wood-plastic formwork can save about 30% in overall cost per use, reduce auxiliary costs by about 40%, and directly reduce project construction costs by nearly 5%. Xiuan wood-plastic boards have many advantages, including being green, low-carbon, and economical.
Wood-plastic composite materials are a relatively new type of environmentally friendly building material, still in its early stages internationally. The raw materials used in wood-plastic products can be waste plastics, waste wood, agricultural and forestry straw, and other plant fibers as base materials, containing no added harmful components. Furthermore, they are recyclable and reusable, making them truly innovative products that are environmentally friendly, energy-saving, and resource-recycling.
