Conform™
Conform™ consists of rigid polymer forms that easily slide together,
creating durable pre-finished walls that can be constructed quickly
in any climate. Once assembled, concrete is poured and the finished
walls are ready for immediate use. The system also fits a variety of
conventional roof structures, windows and door systems. Available in
a range of sizes, this patented concrete finished wall system
provides reliable, fast track construction that will last a
lifetime. Whatever size or type of building, from the simplest
structure to the most complex architectural design, Conform™ is the
perfect choice.

Conform™ provides a cost-efficient alternative to conventional
construction assemblies such as precast, tilt-up and concrete block
walls. Prepared to order and assembled on site, the modular
components facilitate rapid construction and can include built-in
insulation, service raceways and rough openings. Thanks to its
innovative and lightweight design, labor and finishing costs are
greatly reduced. Conform™ is also pest resistant and features
superior sound and thermal insulating properties. Additional savings
come from reduced construction schedules, earlier occupancy, energy
efficiencies and maintenance-free environments.

Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF)
Insulating
Concrete Forms provide you with a superior construction technology
that delivers cost-effective, high-performance structures that are
safer, quieter, more comfortable, energy efficient, structurally
secure, and environmentally responsible than any building system
available on the market today. These facts will contribute to
your success as a developer because it opens a new market of
opportunity for commercial projects by combining strength, safety
and energy efficiency.
Features
- Build external walls with superior thermal properties.
- Utilizing an ICF wall system can substantially improve the
R-value of the walls to R-24. This combination of high R-values,
low air infiltration, and high thermal mass is believed to
account for the amazing 25% to 50% energy savings of ICF versus
wood or steel-framed homes.
- In addition to the increased R-value, ICF wall assemblies
reduce the energy consumption further due to the benefit of the
thermal mass of the wall system that provides thermal stability,
moderating the fluctuations and reducing the heating and cooling
loads, in most climates.
- ICF walls are recognized for having very low air
infiltration rates. Infiltrating rates for ICFs are
approximately 0.05 to 0.10 ACH (air changes/hour) as compared to
0.20 to 0.40 for a conventionally built wood frame house. This
further reduces the heating and cooling loads.
As a result, with the combined performance of the higher R-value
of the ICF wall assembly, the stabilizing effects of the thermal
mass, and the benefit of the very low air infiltration, the wall
system can perform equivalent to a typical stick frame wall with
R- 35 to R-45+ insulation, in many areas of the country.
