 Whether
you’re building a home or a multi-level
commercial structure, you can’t beat the rewards
of building with BuildBlock™ Insulating Concrete
Forms. BuildBlock insulating concrete forms
provide a lightweight, high-strength alternative
to using steel or wood frame.
Insulating concrete forms (ICFs) are hollow foam
blocks which are stacked into the shape of the
exterior walls of a building, reinforced with
steel rebar, and then filled with concrete. ICFs
combine one of the finest insulating materials,
Expanded Polystyrene (EPS), with one of the
strongest structural building materials, steel
reinforced concrete. The result is a wall system
of unmatched comfort, energy efficiency,
strength and noise reduction. Interior (drywall)
and exterior (stucco, brick, rock, siding)
finishes are firmly attached to the wall using
the attachment points in the high-density
plastic webs.

What's the difference
between insulating
concrete forms and insulated
concrete forms?
They typically refer to the same thing
and you'll see both phrases throughout
our website. However, the term
insulating concrete form is more
precise because it indicates that the
insulating characteristic of the form is
continuous and ongoing. |
