Pioneer in bringing to Brazil the technology of plastic moulds for ribbed slabs, Atex was founded in 1991. Since then, our company has continued to innovate and remains the leader in Latin America in moulds for works.
In addition, we have also become one of the main references of this segment abroad, with operations in 3 continents and headquarters in 8 countries.
Know each step of our trajectory.
A company created with the purpose of being disruptive, innovative and sustainable.
Atex slab proves to be more economical, faster, sustainable and industrializes the construction process.
Atex remains a pioneer, investing in research and development of new products. Its portfolio currently has more than 130 mold models.

With the Nerve Annulator, Atex offers Unidirectional Slabs that further reduce the consumption of concrete and steel.
With an eye on design and sustainability, it launches Grim Grid. Modular and made from recycling, it can be used as a floor, cladding or facade.
Planex completely disrupts the massive slab construction process. It replaces 95% of the wood with modular, light and practical plastic forms.
A combination of sophistication and sustainability. Mycena is a modular, resistant and easy to install coating, developed from recycled plastic.
Always present at the work and attentive to the demands of customers, he creates Tubex to mold holes in the slab. In addition to allowing the passage of gutters and tubes, it eliminates useless concrete.
The Planex Project moves forward. The system is ready to mold pillars of various dimensions.
Even during the pandemic, Atex continues to grow. Launches the forms for Circular Pillar and Concrete Walls and creates an e-commerce for your spacers.
Strong and consolidated with nine national units, Atex conquers the world market with works on all continents and offices in Argentina, Colombia, Paraguay, Bolivia, Peru and Mexico.
Atex turns 30 years old. Leader in Latin America in formwork for concrete and with the same purpose of being disruptive, innovative and sustainable. Many new features are already planned for this year. Follow our social networks.
Committed to generating positive economic results and minimizing the environmental impact, we work with guidelines converging to the sustainable development of the planet. That is why Atex moulds
They are 100% recyclable
Made of polypropylene, a high-resistance material, Atex molds are strong, flexible and can even be reused more than 150 times.
Decrease consumption
of resources
Reduces consumption of concrete and steel by up to 40% in the works, indirectly contributing to the reduction of CO² that is released in the manufacture of cement.
decrease the
CO² emission
In addition to contributing to the reduction of CO² in the cement manufacturing process, Atex solutions also reduce the use of wood on site, which avoids the emission of CO² by burning this resource at the end of its useful life in the work.
contribute with
27% of points for
the LEED Certification.
In addition to ensuring more sustainability for your work and allowing you to conquer with easier the certificate that proves this, your project can also become more profitable.
The petrochemical industry produces thermoplastic resin, a base material for Atex moulds.
The thermoplastic resin is additivated and transformed by Atex to produce high quality moulds, with differentiated finish and high resistance
The Atex Units prepare and supply the high-strength moulds for the works, for concreting slabs in different types of projects.
At the end of use on site, due to their high resistance, the moulds return to the Atex Units for cleaning and future use in new projects.
After arriving at the works, the moulds are assembled on the shoring for the concreting of the slabs
When a mould can no longer be reused, its material becomes a basic raw material for the manufacture of ironwork spacers.
As the spacers remain permanently attached to the slab structure, there is no generation of Atex waste in the environment

"Engenhosul Obras and Atex Formas have consolidated a great partnership working together over the years. Atex met our demands and needs in several works with the most diverse technical challenges in an exemplary way. We are currently partners in the execution of Obra Parque do Pontal , where we use thousands of shapes for ribbed slabs of different sizes. Even with the high and constant demand for material, Atex met all the deadlines and milestones necessary for the execution of the work. In this current context of the Covid-19 pandemic, where of partnerships became a solution to face the crisis, Atex forma demonstrated understanding of the situation through its collaborative posture, understanding all the considerations of Engenhosul while the works could not be developed by government decrees."
"Atex has been our partner for over 20 years, in a relationship based on common principles that, as companies, we share: technological innovation, sustainability, quality and customer service. It is a pleasure to work and have this history with a company that delivers confidence and security to its customers, that thinks and cares about the future of the planet and that is close to the customer, at all times of the project cycle."
“We had a very positive experience with the Planex form. The material is very simple to use, greatly increased productivity, reduced the consumption of wood and nails in the work in an absurd way, in addition to improving the final finish of the slab, after demoulding. We will certainly continue to use the material in future endeavors.”
