Concrete Forms and Liners, Metal Forms Poly Meta Forms

Metal Forms Corp., the makers of Poly Meta Forms, are fond of comparing their high-density polyethylene forms to wood, and if you were them, you would too. Poly Meta Forms are only half as heavy as comparable-sized wood pieces. They are reusable, they offer uniform straightness and height, and their size is guaranteed — unlike wood forms, whose uniformity is dependent on what happens to be at the lumber yard.

Poly Meta Forms set and strip quicker than wood does, with a wedge that unlocks and loosens the pieces after the pour has set. The wedge makes horizontal and vertical adjustments easier, too. The plastic forms also perform better than wood when it comes to absorbing moisture — they don't absorb any moisture at all.

Poly Meta Forms come in straight and radius forming designs and several different dimensions for variety. Top spacers, division plates and overhead hangers help when pouring curbs and gutters. The forms can be bent to suit when pouring curved slabs.
