Wall formwork panel MAXIMO

plywood

Overview
MAXIMO is a panel formwork system designed for fast, cost‑effective wall and column concreting. Developed by PERI, the system uses one‑sided MX tie technology (MX 15 / MX 18) to accelerate tying operations, reduce site labour and deliver a regular joint and tie pattern for high‑quality concrete finishes.

Key features

• One‑sided MX tie technology for rapid tie installation without spacer tubes or cones.
• Optimised number and central arrangement of tie points to reduce material use and improve visual finish.
• Available MX 18 anchor for wall thicknesses up to 60 cm; alternative anchors (DW 15 / DW 20) operable from both sides.
• Element frames with powder coating (or hot‑dip galvanised + powder) to minimise concrete adhesion and simplify cleaning.

Applications / Performance in use

• Efficient wall and column forming on building sites requiring good concrete surface quality (e.g. high‑quality residential, underground garages, shafts and tunnels).
• System proven to reduce working time values by up to 50% compared with conventional panel formwork under comparable conditions.
• Compatible with circular formwork RUNDFLEX and column systems SRS, as well as TRIO panel formwork for mixed applications.

Variations & Options

• Element heights: 2.70 m, 3.00 m, 3.30 m, 3.60 m; additional taller panels (MAXIMO 300 / MAXIMO 360) available on request.
• Element lengths: 0.30 m | 0.45 m | 0.60 m | 0.90 m | 1.20 m | 2.40 m.
• Extension heights: 0.30 m | 0.60 m | 0.90 m | 1.20 m.
• Accessories: MXP work platforms, MXK bracket system, MX Shaft Corner for safe shifting of shaft formwork, BFD alignment coupler for stacked applications.

Additional Benefits / Usability

• Reduced site personnel requirements thanks to simplified, one‑sided installation workflow.
• BFD Alignment Coupler enables flush, tight connections, stacking up to 5.40 m and compensations up to 10 cm.
• Wide range of safety accessories and supports (MXK, MXP, MX counter railing holder, RS props, trestles) for secure handling and operation.
• Modular programme and accessory compatibility improve on‑site flexibility and logistics.
