Product Specification

Source section: product information, 2003 documentation set

SDS Design’s CRETE SHEET is comprised of a durable, square-shaped, plastic sheet created for one or more people to use in blending dry materials, dry materials with liquid, and particularly applicable to mixing and pouring their own concrete.

The CRETE SHEET serves the do-it-yourselfers that swarm to home improvement stores each weekend with a simple solution to their problems with mixing materials, especially concrete, at home.

Created for one- or two-person use, the CRETE SHEET is diverse in nature to suit any do-it-yourselfer, regardless of age or strength. Its lightweight construction allows easy transport to and around the jobsite. The CRETE SHEET also serves as a back-up tool for the professional contractor, particularly for small jobs.
