Polyoaks Packaging
Pinetown, KZN, South Africa

Located in Pinetown, KwaZulu-Natal, the new Polyoak Packaging facility is an industrial build currently in progress. The project scope includes the construction of retaining walls, columns, lift shafts, slabs, and beams. As a fast-paced industrial development, the site required a formwork solution that could support complex structural elements while accommodating space restrictions and tight deadlines.

Site Progress

At its peak, over 130 tons of PERI equipment were on site—including approximately 1 400 m² of MULTIFLEX and PD5, together with 300 m² of Handset Alpha. These systems supported a single large slab pour across the facility, with walls reaching 3 m in height and the slab rising to 5.2 m.
PD 5 on site

PD5 was chosen over Quickstage due to faster turnaround times, extended height capability, and reduced material requirements on site.
