GETO Malaysia participated in a significant landmark project in the middle of Genting Highland, wellknown summer retreat in Malaysia. It is IBN Highlands City – A billion-dollar project developed by IBN Corp Ltd. GETO empowers the construction industry around the world with high aluminium formwork productivity.
IBN Highlands City is a mixed development project (serviced apartment and hotel), which was designed based on the imaginative visuals of several pieces of flower petals placed in the midst of clouds of the cooling highland. The project has a total built-up area of 8,400,000 sq ft.
Within the 4978.52 ㎡ aluminium formwork construction area the project consumes in total, GETO Malaysia supplied 2166.83 ㎡ of the aluminium formwork system. In the system, GETO Malaysia supplied 400 ㎡ systems, which are round edges and arc-shaped columns. The special design of IBN Highlands City that is largely different from common typical structures creates challenges for the construction and precise design of formwork in aluminium factory for the project.
With GETO’s intelligent formwork software, BIM Modulation Design in place, special structures are no longer a real challenge since every structure in the AutoCAD drawing of IBN Highlands City can be quickly checked in place at one time. This patented software of GETO Group can automatically identify walls, beams, slabs, and other structures with 100% precision attained.
In addition, GETO’s intelligent BIM Modulation Design Software can facilitate the client to achieve an ideal state in maximizing the reusability of the client’s existing aluminium panel in adoption together with the GETO aluminium formwork system.
Upon the delivery of the aluminium formwork system to the site, GETO site supervisors stayed with the project for at least one month. They are committed instruct the workers on site to appropriately fix the structure system, while quickly responding to any circumstances related to the formwork system on-site. Because of our outstanding construction engineering solutions, we have done a great job with this project.
Besides the use of the standard panels supplied, the curve-shaped structures formed by special-shaped aluminium formwork systems are in good casting effect as well. This helps the contractor to save up time for crafting the special-shaped by crafting timber formwork on-site, which brings the result of cost-saving in hiring increasingly costing labour in carpeting. Also not forget to highlight, the high durability of the GETO Aluminium Formwork System guarantees the consistency of the casting quality of the project across numerous floors it is being reused.

One of GETO’s customers has studied special building structures to protest against earthquakes. Their company mission is to provide solutions to save lives and deliver affordable housing in earthquake-prone areas. Finally, the local government highly appreciated and recognized their building solution, which adopted the GETO Precast Concrete.
Seismic isolated fundamental work on the same principle as a“tilted doll”. Unlike other seismic isolation system, it doesn’t require any regular maintenance. GETO Precast Mould System helps clients save a lot of money for later maintenance.
The clients provide the architectural plan, elevation plan and section only, there is no structural plan, because it’s beamless structure. However, they require us to provide aluminium forms for the column parts. it’s not the same as normal square columns. The difference is that we need to reserve several holes for steel rebar and those holes should be open precisely, here let me share some attached photos from GETO precast factory. Our customer calls it as “PBS” column.
This precast formwork system has two main components that can be used independently. The factory produced precast columns and precast slabs are combined and welded on site. No beams are required that reduces building weight, cost and time of construction.

In Taiwan, China, the government is planning new MRT stations, of which the Sanying MRT station is under construction. GETO has proudly supplied aluminium formwork system for wall, beam, deck, column etc, including inclined columns.
The dimensions of the largest inclined column on site are as follow:
Length of column base section: 2300mm
Width of column base section: 2300mm
Vertical height of column: 14253mm
Length of beveled side of column: 15222mm
Angle: 69.45°
MRT are closely related to people’s lives and being able to build MRT stations with aluminium formwork is an important step forward in GETO’s involvement in public construction projects in Taiwan.
In this project, due to the special structure, it is necessary to adopt large leaning columns, which are more difficult for our aluminium formwork design, but we did it perfectly.
Large leaning columns mean that stronger support and reinforcement systems, more accurate design and production, and strict site management are required – all three of which are essential.
① GETO solves it with tie rod system， which ensures the security and efficiency of the project. GETO formwork class products can be applied to different project types and high turnover of formwork between different structure types and typical floors can be achieved.
② GETO uses self-developed software of modulation, such as BIM, Auto CAD and 3D Modulation Software to offer the clients. These technologies provide technical support for the customer’s project, promoting it to be successful.
③ In this project, GETO provides 24 hours online technical support for customers to solve the technical problems when using our aluminium column formwork, so as to be customer-center and give customers a good experience.
