SERVICES THAT ADD VALUE Traditional suppliers of wood products to the precast industry are often limited to the dimensions of plywood and lengths of lumber they are able to buy from their suppliers. When that material shows up at a precast yard, it is often trimmed down to another length or cut to another size. Precasters are forced to buy material they don’t need, and then add additional costs by having to handle it, cut it and pay to have it hauled off. That process ties up resources in the yard and slows down production. This is inefficient, wasteful and increases risk for injuries to valued team members.
Our network of 25+ manufacturing facilities make it easy for precasters to source and order the exact size of materials required in production. It doesn’t matter if it is lumber, plywood, insulation or PVC. UFP Concrete Forming Solutions is the only national supplier to the industry that can provide precasters with the pre-cut materials to your exact requirements. • Lumber Trimmed to Length • Lumber Ripped to Width • Custom Cut & Beveled Lumber • Plywood Ripped to Width • Plywood Cut to Size • CNC Routing Services

CUSTOM DESIGN & PRE-ASSEMBLY FOR PRECAST We support the precast industry in many other ways than just the supply of lumber, plywood, insulation and machining services that add value to the products we provide. We collaborate with industry leading precast companies to develop new forming concepts that provide actual solutions to common challenges all precast companies face.
X-PIN FIBERGLASS CONNECTION SYSTEM UFP Concrete Forming Solutions and Sigma DG, the leader in fiberglass systems used in the concrete construction industry, developed the X-Pin fiberglass connection system to provide the precast industry with a much-needed solution to a very labor intensive, wasteful and inefficient process of manufacturing insulated sandwich panels with traditional connection systems. The profile and performance characteristics of X-Pin combined with locally manufactured, routed and labeled insulation from UFP Concrete Forming Solutions, provides the precast industry with a game changing solution. Suppliers of traditional connection systems place the burden on precast companies to pay for significant freight costs due to inefficient sourcing of insulation and the high disposal cost of wasted insulation after being required to cut everything on site. We identified a better solution and the impact is creating a high quality finished product our customers can be proud of that increases both productivity and profitability.
