Consystex columns are water resistant and can be left onsite in a horizontal position, however, it is best to place and fill columns as soon as possible after delivery.
Avoid continual movement of columns around site as this may cause unwarranted damage.
Store columns vertically were possible. Where columns are stored horizontally do not use gluts when stacking columns on top of each other as this will cause pressure points or point loads.
Columns stored for any length of time should be protected from the elements or placed under cover. If placed upright please ensure that columns are secured against toppling over.

SQUARE AND RECTANGULAR TUBES
CONSYSTEX'S Square and Rectangular Column Formwork
CONSYSTEX can also provide square or rectangular concrete columns or other shapes to the specific requirements of the customer.
The process of setting up and stripping is fast and easy.
We use a high strength outer round tube that is fracture resistant. The internal component incorporates a high density polystyrene foam segment that creates the required shape.
What about the Finish?
An inner liner is placed to ensure a smooth concrete finish achieving a Class 2 surface result.
The yellow liner is an alternative product that can achieve a unique textured feature.
