Fall Protection During Concrete Pouring and Formwork Operations
Falls from heights are among the most serious workplace accidents in the construction industry. More than one-third of fatal workplace accidents are caused by falls from heights. That is why there are legal requirements for fall protection. For companies, occupational safety systems are therefore important in two ways: they fulfill legal obligations and protect workers from hazards.
Exposed Concrete Up to Class SB4: What Formwork Must Be Able to Do for Exposed Concrete Walls
In addition to determining the shape of the structural element, the formwork also dictates its appearance. While these details are hidden in plastered or clad walls, they define the final surface appearance of exposed concrete. Every formwork joint and every anchor point is visible—unembellished and permanent. Achieving a high-quality surface, therefore, requires a great deal of precision.
Concrete Construction Under Pressure: Understanding Challenges and Implementing Solutions
The construction industry is facing a growing number of challenges. Rising costs, a shortage of skilled workers, and ever-increasing demands for quality and documentation are compounded by a sluggish construction market. At the same time, clients expect short construction timelines and precise results.
Joint formwork: Our system for efficient concrete work
Cavity wall joints are among the most challenging details in concrete construction. Uneven substrates, varying joint widths, and tight time frames make rapid execution difficult. Modern formwork requires a solution for all applications—from functional buildings to attractive exposed concrete.
Supports and formwork in building construction: efficiency, quality, and cost-effectiveness with PAX HD
In building construction, column formwork is no longer just a technical aid, but an essential lever for cost-effectiveness, schedule reliability, and execution quality on construction sites.
Efficient ceiling formwork in concrete construction: our systems for maximum productivity
The requirements for ceiling formwork have changed significantly in recent years. More complex building geometries, faster construction processes, increasing safety standards, and the pressure to achieve more with fewer personnel—all of this calls for formwork systems that can do more than just bear loads.
Should you buy or rent formwork systems? An overview of the advantages and disadvantages
At the start of a project, many contractors ask themselves the same crucial question: Should I buy formwork systems outright? Or is renting the more economical solution? Our answer: Both options can make sense.
Wall formwork in concrete construction: our efficient systems and solutions
Wall formwork is a key element in concrete construction—it significantly determines the shape, quality, and surface structure of concrete walls. Whether for foundations, basement walls, elevator shafts, or architecturally sophisticated exposed concrete surfaces: high-quality formwork for concrete walls is crucial for achieving perfect results.
Review of NordBau 2025: Mayer Schaltechnik live on site
NordBau 2025 in Neumünster celebrated a special anniversary: the most important compact construction trade fair in Northern Europe opened its doors for the 70th time from September 10 to 14. With around 50,300 visitors and 701 exhibitors from 16 countries, the trade fair once again demonstrated its importance for the construction industry.

Aluminium beams in a class of their own
Minimax from Mayer Schaltechnik clears the forest of columns: The old school building in Ammerbuch-Altingen could no longer be renovated economically. It was demolished last fall for the construction of a new replacement building. And this is exactly where our aluminium beams – in a class of their own – came into play. While the pupils have been relocated to…
