This new commercial partnership will leverage Elematic’s world-renowned machinery, software, and automation expertise with Hendriks Formwork’s decades of experience in customized steel molds and modular formwork systems—especially in tunnel formwork, that compliments the advantages of precast construction.
Together, the companies aim to deliver fully integrated, turnkey precast production solutions to construction companies worldwide, with a particular focus on the rapidly growing precast construction market in India.
“Our cooperation with Hendriks Formwork represents a step forward in delivering more integrated and efficient precast systems to our customers as their deep engineering knowledge in tunnel formworks and 3D molds compliments our offering. This collaboration results from actively listening to our customers, working together with them, and our ongoing efforts to adapt and address the challenges in the construction industry alongside our customers,” says Teppo Voutilainen, CEO of Elematic.
“Combining our advanced machinery and automation with Hendriks’ flexible, high-precision formwork solutions ensures a completely new way to construct, for example, high-rise buildings and infrastructure, including bridges and tunnels.”
Philip Winckel, CEO of Hendriks Formwork, adds, “We are excited to join forces with Elematic. This partnership enables us to reach new markets and deliver even greater value through joint engineering and 3D mold design, as well as project delivery and service. Our mutual customers will benefit from a seamless combination of industrial innovation and practical, hands-on experience.”
A shared vision for smarter construction
The collaboration focuses on enhancing customer outcomes by providing advantages through innovative tunnel formwork, combined with world-leading precast knowledge, ensuring speed, quality, safety, and efficiency for our customers, as well as cost-effectiveness.
When it comes to tall buildings, tunnel formwork offers the possibility of going high in high-rise buildings, addressing seismic and wind load forces, and solving the challenges some markets face in precast buildings.
The companies will commence pilot implementations of joint solutions in select projects in India during Q4 2025, with broader global availability anticipated in 2026.
