Who We Are: Pioneers in Aluminum Concrete Shoring Systems

HI-LITE Systems has been designing and manufacturing concrete support systems for the domestic and international markets for over 50 years. Our products are made from HI-strength, LITE-weight aluminum, The HI-LITE Systems.                                                           

The original designer and manufacturer of aluminum shoring frames. The 12 KIP Aluminum Shoring system is the “GO-TO” system for most contractors when a stronger and lighter product is required over conventional steel shoring frames.

Years of experience has gone into the design and development of each of our products.

HI-LITE Systems continues to add new products and improvements to existing systems.
Heavy Civil 50Kip frames (SWL), Fly Forming, Bridge Overhang Brackets are just a few lines that allow you to Experience the Hi-Lite Advantage.

HI-LITE is Aluminum…

HI-LITE Systems are made from HI-strength, LITE-weight aluminum – hence our name.

HI-LITE has been an innovator and world leader in the shoring and forming industry for over sixty years. Our aluminum concrete shoring products are designed to help contractors reduce costs and increase productivity:

  • Ease of use and lightweight aluminum allows one worker to do more in less time.
  • By design, our systems adapt to almost any condition to get job done faster.
  • Aluminum doesn’t rust and never requires painting, making HI-LITE’s systems virtually maintenance free.
  • HI-LITE’s systems are extremely resistant to onsite damage, which increases their service life.
  • Less inventory required means lower storage, handling, and transportation costs.

What Can You Do With HI-LITE?

Competitive advantages making HI-LITE’s aluminum concrete shoring systems a worldwide market leader include:

  • Ability to build faster with increased efficiency.
  • Competitive pricing with excellent cost/value ratio.
  • Concrete forming labor cost, representing up to 80% of total forming cost.
  • Large element system formwork to reduce labor requirements for forming.
  • Unsurpassed weight to strength ratio.
  • HI-LITE Systems Formwork can be quickly assembled and easily moved by an average capacity crane.
  • Initial assembly costs are amortized over the whole project as panels remain intact throughout the job.
  • Large panels reduce the quantity of fillers, minimize decking joints, and eliminate a large amount of material wastage from cutting, damage, and loss.
  • Professional project phasing and management.
  • Ability to provide training and safety programs

HI-LITE systems offer: 

  • Efficiency: HI-LITE systems benefit from aluminum’s high strength and low weight.
  • Speed: The ease of handling large, lightweight elements results in increased speed of construction and accelerated project completion dates.
  • Quality: Larger formwork elements and more systematized formwork designs result in a finished product far superior to that derived from the use of small, handset components.
  • Safety: Lighter components mean fewer aches, pains, and injuries for workers.
  • Longevity: Aluminum doesn’t rust, never needs to be painted, and has high elasticity to resist jobsite damage three times better than steel.
  • Ease of Transportation: Weight and volume limitations are balanced, making HI-LITE’s equipment the most economical to transport.
  • Environmentally Friendly: Aluminum is one of the most recyclable materials in the world.
