STANDARD PANEL IN-SITU
Our standard panels are designed to support bridge decks during concrete pours as leave-in-place or sacrificial formwork.
CANTILEVER PANELS
Our panels can be designed to cantilever as you require, providing an upstand for the deck edge.
HAUNCHED PANEL
Haunched panels can be deployed to reduce the overall thickness of the deck and are ideal for use in scenarios where services are required underneath the soffit.
COMPOSITE PANEL
If your formwork project has shorter distances between precast or steel beams, our Mek-Dek Composite panel is ideal for spans up to 1.4m.
COPER UNIT
Our GRP copers can be used as an alternative to heavy pre-cast concrete copers on an over-bridge to increase a parapet height to prevent climbing and improve overall safety.

Mek-Dek panels serve as sacrificial “leave-in-place” formwork specifically designed for bridges. Offering an exceptional combination of strength and lightweight construction, ensuring optimal performance while minimising the overall weight of the structure.
Manufactured with precision, our panels can be tailored to meet your project’s unique requirements, guaranteeing a seamless fit and efficient installation process.
Off-line Installations for Enhanced Efficiency
We understand the importance of streamlining construction operations. That’s why our clever GRP permanent formwork solutions enable off-line (or off-site installations across a range of scenarios.
By adopting this approach, you can capitalise on significant benefits, including reduced labour requirements, enhanced safety by minimising on-site risks, and accelerated construction schedules.
Our solutions empower you to maximise efficiency while providing a secure and stable working platform.
Work Above, Eliminate Access Beneath
One of the standout advantages of our GRP formwork panels is the elimination of the need for access beneath the structure during installation. This unique feature sets us apart from traditional formwork methods.
All installation work is performed from above the structure. By removing the necessity for lower access, you can save valuable time, resources, and potential disruptions.
Our innovative approach guarantees the efficient utilisation of resources while maintaining uncompromised safety standards.
