We have been working with PERI formwork for 15 years now and have always achieved good fair-faced concrete results. The systems are easy to understand, and they work and they fit. What is more, when we have specific questions, PERI always offers us proficient answers and solutions immediately. Therefore, for these high walls, we could only imagine to do it with PERI VARIO. The result fully fulfils the ideas of the architect.
