The Benefits of Insulated concrete forms

Durable and Resilient

Durable and Resilient

Durable and Resilient

ICF structures are extremely resilient and durable and can last for hundreds of years.

Concrete structures can last for hundreds of years versus decades for some wood structures and have lower lifetime operational and maintenance costs. ICF walls resist fire with temps up to 2000 degrees for 3-4 hours and can withstand winds in excess of 200 mph. Few materials can compare to the strength of ICF and concrete. 

ICF is Safer

Cozy and Healthy

Durable and Resilient

Durable and Resilient

Quad-Lock ICF does not contain any harmful chemicals and doesn't produce any off-gassing.

Insulated Concrete Forms do not contain harmful chemicals, such as formaldehyde, fiberglass, HCFCs or CFCs and doesn't suffer from off-gassing. Additionally, they do not use wood, which eliminates issues with mold, rot, or mildew. ICF creates consistent inside temperatures and cleaner, healthier indoor air quality by reducing air infiltration by up to 75% and eliminating thermal bridging.

Energy Efficient

Durable and Resilient

Reduces Noise Pollution

An ICF wall system can reduce energy costs by up to 50% or more compared to wood construction.

An ICF wall system can reduce heating and cooling costs by up to 50% or more on average compared with traditional wood construction. High density, continuous insulation combined with the thermal mass of concrete provide at least 58% better R-value than most wood framed walls.

ICF is a great choice for those who value peace and quiet, even in the noisiest environments.

Those who live in ICF homes list sound reduction as one of the most appreciated benefits.  With solid walls that allow only about one-sixth of common outdoor noise to pass through, Insulated Concrete Forms are a great choice for those who value peace and quiet, even in the noisiest environments.

Sustainable Benefits

ICF protects the environment by reducing the number of trees needed for construction.

ICF is green in more ways than one. ICF is a great way to protect the environment by reducing the number of trees needed in the construction industry. Additionally, Expanded Polystyrene insulation (EPS foam) has much lower environmental impacts than many other insulation materials. 

ICF is Sustainable
ICF walls are not new technology, but were invented in the 1960s for energy efficiency.
New Construction Technology? Not so fast.

The History of ICF

Insulated Concrete Forms constructed of EPS foam, as we know them today, are not a new technology, but are tried and tested dating back to the late 1960s and the adoption of ICF construction has steadily increased since the 1970s.
