ST. PAUL’S HOSPITAL
- Prime: PCL
Formwork: Pagnotta
Location: Vancouver, BC
Formwork crews don’t buy plywood.
They buy pours.
20 pours a sheet — 10 per face, both sides filmed. 11-ply poplar hardwood core. Manufactured direct and delivered to your pour schedule by flatbed and Hiab.

Refined over fifteen years by the crews who pour with it.
Every change in this sheet came from a formwork crew telling us what failed. What came out the other end is the best cost per pour we know how to build.
A cheap sheet blows out around six pours and leaves your crew patching the finish. That is where the cost actually sits — not on the invoice.
Ours holds because of how it is built: an 11-ply poplar hardwood core under a 20 g/sq ft black phenolic film on both faces, bonded to a 72-hour boil standard and held to ±0.3 mm thickness tolerance. Strip it, flip it, pour again, and your gang forms still run true.
Proven on site. St Paul’s Hospital ran ten pours on each face comfortably. See the crew talk about it →
We manufacture direct and deliver to your pour schedule by flatbed and Hiab. Formply that turns up late does not cost you a delivery fee, it costs you a crew.

★★★★★
“Aegis helped me make sure I got the formply I needed for my sites in Vancouver on time, and helped arrange logistics with a flatbed and a Hiab. The formply quality is great. I have used it for the last 3 years for foundations, walls, slabs and planters. Will continue purchasing.”
