The Construction Source

Global Formwork Systems Inc. is an engineering company and formwork supplier based in Kleinburg, Ontario – but they are also more than that. Over the course of many years in the industry, their accomplished team has continually honed their expertise in formwork solutions, engineering excellence, and custom fabrication, and they have developed an unrivalled industry reputation for their ability to overcome obstacles and realize the visions of their clients. “At Global Formwork, we prioritize client satisfaction above all else,” says Tamer Gerges, the company’s founder and CEO. “From initial consultation to project completion, our dedicated team is committed to delivering exceptional results that exceed our clients’ expectations. With our core values at the forefront of everything we do, clients can trust us to be their reliable partner.” Tamer personally comes from a long history in the formwork industry – though his initial entry into the industry came about “almost by accident.” He was originally a mechanical engineer, but after moving to Canada from Egypt in 2004, he went looking for an entry level position somewhere, and he ended up finding one within one of the largest formwork manufacturers and suppliers in the industry. He committed himself to learning as much as he could as fast as he could, and it turned out he really enjoyed it. “Work was more like play,” he recalls. “With formwork, you get this Lego set to build any shape you want, and I was having a lot of fun while getting paid for it.” Tamer rose through the ranks at that first company before getting headhunted and moving from engineering to sales with another formwork company. That was another great learning MAY 2026
