Insulated Concrete Forms

Over the past ten years Cotton has completed a number of projects using Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF) including additions to existing houses, foundations for new homes, above grade construction for single family homes, detached garages, grade beams for industrial buildings, party walls for townhouses and multi-storey condominium buildings.

Insulated concrete forms are a very cost effective method of construction as well as providing safety, comfort and energy efficiency.

Please give one of our estimators a call for a free booklet outlining the benefits and advantages of constructing with ICF above and below grade.

   

Global warming is a direct result of harmful gas emissions released into the earth's atmosphere. ICF structures combine expanded polystyrene (EPS) insulation and concrete thermal mass. This highly effective combination of materials minimizes temperature fluctuations by absorbing and storing heat.  This equates to an average of approximately 30-50% reduction in energy consumption for heating and cooling, which results in an equivalent reduction in harmful emissions.
