WHAT IS ICF?
NUDURA Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF) is a building form used in the construction of large and small scale commercial developments as well as the building and retrofitting of residential homes.
NUDURA Forms consist of two panels of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) foam that are 2 5/8” (67 mm) in thickness and connected together with our patented web system that are made of 100% recycled material. NUDURA Forms are stacked, then steel reinforced and filled with concrete, which completes the building envelope of your home in one building step. NUDURA Forms are available in a variety of shapes and sizes to accommodate all types of building requirements and designs.
