NEW – also usable as slab formwork!
Done any handset forming today?
On new builds and sites surrounded by other structures – at 22.6 kg per main panel (0.75 x 1.50 m), the robust DokaXlight formwork is cost-saving and easy to use for CIP concrete structures of any type or size. One person can safely handle this formwork with no crane lifts required, so can work proceed faster and resources are used more productively. The maximum concrete pressures are 50 kN/m2 for wall formwork and 75 kN/m² for column formwork, making this hand-set system great for high pouring rates.

NEW - DokaXlight now also in the ceiling.
With just two accessories, the new DokaXlight support head and the DokaXlight assembly pole, the ultra-lightweight hand-set formwork becomes a handy slab formwork system. In addition, the DokaXlight connector is a new, lightweight connecting element that can be used in walls and slabs without tools.

Alexander Knop, Managing Director, KnopBau GmbH
“DokaXlight is an investment in the future. The job might be a basement, a garage or a complete family home, DokaXlight always gives me the flexibility I need. Even when I have to cast a single-sided wall, I just take DokaXlight and combine it with the lightweight Doka Alu supporting construction frame.”
Stefan Rott, Managing Director, Bauunternehmung & Zimmerei Rott und Wimmer GmbH
“Our people really enjoy working with DokaXlight because it is so light and easy to handle. On big sites we use it in places beyond the reach of the crane. We also use it for renovation work and on small jobs, because that’s where ease of transportation is important. By loading it on to Frami pallets we can even shift the gear from A to B quickly on small trucks.”
Peter Karg, Managing Director Bauunternehmung Peter Karg GmbH
“I reckon that the lightweight DokaXlight is the ideal addition to our super-fast Framax Xlife plus. We use it all the time, for example when we need to erect formwork above a shaft, or make a stop-end for a floor slab.”
Horst Ohlenforst, Managing Director, Bauunternehmung Horst Ohlenforst
“Whenever we need to form up concrete members for outdoor facilities or construct side formwork for drop beams, DokaXlight is always the go-to solution and I really appreciate its light weight and ease of handling.”
Ralf Mang, foreman, Spiluttini Bau GmbH
“The DokaXlight handset formwork main panel measures 0.75 x 1.50m and weighs only 21.5 kg. That’s extremely light and very ergonomic; my people find working with this system very labour-saving. Less effort means that the work gets done faster and with more attention to detail.”
