Plastic paver mold

Plastic paver mold is a tool used in the construction of concrete pavers. It is typically made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastic material and is designed to create uniform, interlocking shapes for concrete pavers.

Here’s how a plastic paver mold is typically used:

  1. Prepare the mold: Clean the mold and ensure it is free from any debris or residue.Apply a release agent, such as cooking spray or mold release oil, to the inside of the mold to facilitate easy removal of the finished paver.
  2. Mix the concrete: Prepare the concrete mixture according to the manufacturer’s instructions or your desired recipe. You can add colorants or additives to customize the appearance or performance of the pavers.
  3. Fill the mold: Pour the mixed concrete into the plastic paver mold, ensuring that it reaches all corners and edges.
  4. Compact the concrete: To ensure the concrete is properly compacted and the mold is filled completely, tap or vibrate the mold gently.
  5. Smooth the top surface.
  6. Allow curing: Follow the recommended curing time for the concrete, which typically involves allowing it to set and harden for a designated period. 
  7. Demold the paver: Once the concrete has cured, carefully remove the plastic mold by flexing or gently tapping it.
