CREO ICF FOR THE DESIGNER

• Design flexibility

The provision of a variety of shapes and components creates limitless design opportunities. A range of features can be introduced – such as bay windows and arches – without the need for specialist products. In addition, floors can be constructed using ICF components.

• Variety of finishes

The exterior of the building can be clad in any finish the architect requires, including masonry, brick slips, render, tiles, curtain walling and weather boarding, with or without a cavity. Internally, plaster or dry lining is applied directly to the face of the EPS formwork.

• Compatibility with other building systems

Any type of foundation, flooring, partition, stair or roofing system is compatible with ICF construction.

• Meets building performance standards

ICF provides an easy means of achieving high standards of structural, energy, fire and acoustic performance.

• Modern Methods of Construction

The use of ICF is a technique that is fully compatible with the ‘Modern Methods of Construction’ initiative being promoted by the Government through the Housing Corporation and the Housing Forum.
