Safe­ty in con­struc­tion is not just about com­pli­ance; it’s about com­mit­ment. A com­mit­ment to pro­tect lives, pre­serve invest­ments, and not to exceed the bound­aries of what build­ings can with­stand.

Light­weight and stur­dy ICFs, like Fox Blocks, speed up new home con­struc­tion with quick and easy instal­la­tion, guar­an­teed avail­abil­i­ty, and both hot and cold tem­per­a­ture resis­tance. 

Explore the ben­e­fits of 2 sto­ry ICF con­struc­tion for ener­gy-effi­cient, durable homes with Fox Blocks’ advanced Insu­lat­ed Con­crete Forms.

When the Fox Blocks inter­lock was designed our Engi­neer­ing staff made the choice not to focus on being with­in 1÷2” to 1” from the build­ing dimen­sion but to give the strongest inter­lock pos­si­ble.

ICF con­struc­tion cre­ates mod­ern struc­tures that are ener­gy-effi­cient, durable, dis­as­ter-resis­tant, and have good indoor envi­ron­men­tal qual­i­ty (IEQ). ICF con­struc­tion is also strong, flex­i­ble, fast and easy to install. Unfor­tu­nate­ly, even with these many ben­e­fits, some archi­tects and con­trac­tors are reluc­tant to uti­lize it due to mis­con­cep­tions about ICF con­struc­tion.

As cli­mate change becomes a greater issue, archi­tects are under increas­ing pres­sure to design sus­tain­able, yet high-per­for­mance build­ings. In this blog, we go over some effec­tive strate­gies you can use dur­ing the design process to enhance your building’s ener­gy effi­cien­cy
