Biobase Sweden AB BIO-FOMO 3

Biobase Sweden AB BIO-FOMO 3 is a form oil with a higher viscosity and very low volatility. The product has been developed for the future to meet the demands on environmental friendliness and independence of fossil resources. The biobased product degrades very quickly in the environment. With BIO-FOMO 3 you get a product with excellent release properties especially from vertical surfaces and porous casting form materials like wood and plywood. Also works on steel and plastic casting form for both vertical and horizontal surfaces. BIO-FOMO range of concrete form oils are one of the few products in the market that does not contain any fossil hydrocarbons. The active formulation gives a thin layer of soap in the contact between wet concrete and the form which prevents sticking.
