Insulated Concrete Forms (ICFs) are the Foundation of Our Approach to Thoughtful Building
Buildings are now being constructed to a new standard, and that standard is Net-Zero. Net-Zero structures built with Insulated Concrete Forms maximize the use of on-site renewable energy, thereby producing more energy than they consume over the course of a year. Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF) play a critical role in allowing a Net-Zero structure to maximize its use of energy.
