The four types of ICfs that we produce have the following dimensions of the concrete core:
- 15.24 cm (with 6.35cm of insulation on both sides)
- 20.32 cm (with 6.35cm of insulation on both sides)
- 20.32 cm – FOR PASSIVE HOUSES (with 18cm of insulation on the external side and 6.35cm on the internal side)
- 25.4 cm (with 6.35cm of insulation on both sides)
As concrete cures it becomes stronger; ICFs guarantee your home becomes stronger every day.
Applications
ICF can be used both below and above grade for single and multi-storey residential, commercial, institutional and industrial construction.
