Maruman Concrete

This manufacturer does NOT have a website in English that presents their products for international markets. However, we do provide relevant information on this page, so please take a look.

Maruman Concrete offers various types of permanent thin-walled precast concrete formwork blocks with built-in reinforcement. These formwork blocks are treated with W Cation Electrodeposition Coating, an epoxy resin paint that eliminates the need for removal, reducing social costs and environmental impact while enhancing work efficiency.

There are two types of permanent formwork blocks: "Prote Rock Pierce Wonder," made using the permanent formwork method, and "Prote Rock Make," made using the permanent decorative formwork method.

"Prote Rock Pierce Wonder" eliminates the need for on-site dismantling, producing no waste and reducing construction time. It comes in "Pierce," "Wonder," and "Mini" types to meet various site requirements. Prote Rock Make offers aesthetic versatility with various decorative finishes and features built-in structural steel and mesh supports, making it both durable and design-friendly.
