This section explains the material choices behind reliable mould performance, from liner type and release agents to durability and the right base material.

What this section covers
These pages walk through the main material decisions that affect how a mould performs in use, including the differences between silicone and polyurethane and how liner choice relates to your concrete mix.
You can use this section to compare options page by page, whether you are starting with the mix, thinking about expected pour life, or trying to match a release agent to the mould.
