Mivan is an aluminum formwork system developed by a European construction company. In 1990, Mivan Company Ltd. of Malaysia began manufacturing these formwork systems. Today, more than 30,000m² of formwork from Mivan Co. Ltd. are used worldwide. The MIVAN formwork has proved to be economical and satisfactory for the general construction environment. Mivan technology is suitable for building a large number of homes in a short time span, using room size shapes to build walls and slabs in a continuous discharge over concrete.
The aluminum formwork is very profitable for the repetitive designs of buildings and for the superior work of the socket. This system is very unique, since all building components such as slabs, beams, walls, columns, stairs, balconies and special window bells are made of concrete and there is no need to work on blocks or bricks.
The modular nature of the Mivan aluminum formwork system allows for easy fixing and removal of the formwork and construction can proceed quickly with very little deviation in dimensional tolerances. The system is quite flexible and can easily be adapted for any variation in the design. It consists of four components: beam components, deck components and wall components, all made from high strength aluminum alloy.
