StarTec

The universal steel formwork that is capable of accommodating fresh concrete pressures of
60 kN/m² is a genuine all-rounder. In terms of top performance and efficiency, the multi-purpose formwork boasts a long and impeccable track record worldwide. As StarTec is 100% compatible with the compact, lightweight AluStar formwork, it perfectly complements this crane-independent system as well.

No water absorption, resistant to swelling and shrinkage. Smooth, robust surface guarantees a high-quality concrete finish, even after heavy use

Flange screw

Single component for strong connection of all accessories.

AS assembly lock

Only one component needed for rapid, reliable panel connection: MEVA assembly lock. Allows single-handed fitting at any position along the frame. A few hammer blows suffice to achieve a strong, level and stepless panel connection.

Tie rod holder with tie rod on a formwork element

Tie rod fixture

For fixing to multi-purpose profile of upright or horizontal StarTec panels – for fast and safe transportation on site.

StarTec panels and corners

With panel heights of 330 cm to 75 cm and panel widths of 270 cm to 20 cm, StarTec is readily adaptable to specific geometries. Thanks to the variety of elements, all common wall thicknesses can be reproduced without fitting areas.

The system also has articulated corners that are infinitely adjustable from 60° to 180°.

An unbeatable duo

Together, StarTec and AluStar comprise a product family featuring crane-independent aluminium and large-format steel panels. The only component needed for their universal application is the assembly lock. No other adapters or connectors are required. Combined use of the two systems allows the efficient and flexible deployment of resources to meet all on-site demands.

Securit security system mounted on a StarTec formwork system

Cost-effective all-in system

The safety system with a working platform is easy to install using a single component – the flange screw. A loadbearing capacity of up to 200 kg/m² guarantees start-to-finish safety throughout the assembly and concreting operations.
