ICF Therm
ICF Therm is a leading ICF (Insulated Concrete Formwork) system, offers a proven alternative to traditional building methods. As a Modern Method of Construction (MMC) it ensures an exceptional thermal performance and enables a fast, efficient build with minimal mechanical equipment on site. ICF Therm can be used with Raft Therm, an Insulated Foundation System, further improving the thermal performance. ICF Therm is a cost-effective EPS ICF block available in a range of wall thicknesses, providing excellent performance and value to any construction project. The combination of our interlocking system and reversible block pattern makes for a fast and easy installation, while considerably reducing job site waste. The wide range of insulation thicknesses and concrete core sizes allows for limitless design possibilities.

Raft Therm
Raft Therm is a NSAI certified insulated foundation system used in the construction of residential homes and commercial buildings.

Reduced cold bridging and exceptional U values as low as 0.1W/m²K are achieved by wrapping the sides and underneath of the concrete foundation and ground floor in a continuous layer of high density Expanded Polystyrene (EPS).
