We manufacture a range of profiles from 32mm to 210mm depth which are used as permanent formwork
Permanent formwork remains in situ for the life of the building but, unlike composite flooring profiles, it does not act as reinforcement in the concrete slab.
Advantages
The steel decking supports the wet concrete and construction loads.
Temporary propping is eliminated and steel lost formwork is left in situ which gives fast, easy construction.
The concrete slab requires full structural bar or mesh reinforcement.
The wide range of Tata Steel formwork profiles ensure the optimum solution is available.
The launch of Optemis Carbon Lite is an important step in our ongoing decarbonisation journey. It demonstrates our progress and represents a unique solution for customers in the form of a flexible, lower CO2 steel offering.
Optemis Carbon Lite is a fully certified in-setting scheme verified by leading assurance organisation DNV. Our continued commitment to decarbonisation means reductions in CO2 emissions can now be passed on to our customers, enabling them to achieve immediate Scope 3 emission savings.
Revenues generated from the sale of Optemis Carbon Lite certificates are used to fund additional decarbonisation projects, generating further CO2 savings to be verified by DNV and speeding up our decarbonisation efforts.
By buying Optemis Carbon Lite from Tata Steel UK we, and our customers, will be actively contributing to a reduction in atmospheric CO2.
