Telescopic formwork

Pioneering invention for wall formworks


The requirements for reinforced concrete walls were increased constantly over the last years. Self-compacting concrete, symmetric ties and joint structures, class SB4 facing concrete or "Dyckerhoff white" to name only some of the high requirements of of a wide range. In most cases the concrete requriements have a significant impact on the standards that applied for the formwork. The telescopic formwork PRIMAX offers for the first time a wall formwork specifically designed for these modern requirements.

PRIMAX does not only fulfil the requirements of a faultless concrete surface and concrete load absorption but also of the cost effectiveness and a unique variable height adjustment(!)

The telescopic principle designed for a use on site allows an extraction of the element grid and its exact adaption to the respective wall height and the positioning of a framework fitting piece by means of a quick-release fastener


The following element hights and widths are available:

Decisive product benefits overview:

  • Height adjustment through telescopic principle
  • High load capacity (80 kN/m² or 100 kN/m² according to anchoring position)
  • Low deflection (compliance with DIN 18202 line 7)*
  • Low anchoring proportion (ideally 0.5 anchoring/m² prepared wall surface)*
  • Free choice of formwork facing – exchange by means of quick release
  • Fastening of formwork facing from behind – no bolt impressions in the concrete

* meets facing concrete requirements
