Reltec is a lost formwork system designed for making square and rectangular base concrete columns, either isolated or against existing constructions. Reltec is a set of elements made of high density polystyrene, coated on the inner side with plasticised wood panels. The angles are chamfered. The assembled elements are stiffened using reinforced tape.
This produces a rigid and light formwork resisting to pressure from the concrete without intermediate reinforcements for heights up to 4 m.
