The EPS in an Fox Blocks has a flame retar­dant that allows the forms to be flame resis­tant. The EPS will melt when exposed to sus­tained tem­per­a­tures over 300°F (149°C). The igni­tion point of the melt­ed styrene is 600°F (315°C) (wood is approx­i­mate­ly 500°F (260°C). Fox Blocks have been test­ed to meet the build­ing code require­ments for flame spread and smoke devel­op­ment, plus Fox Blocks may be used as fire resis­tant rat­ed wall assem­blies in schools and hos­pi­tals.

Fox Blocks pro­vid­ed a struc­tur­al sys­tem that allowed the exist­ing church to be expand­ed.

Cost effec­tive con­struc­tion was pos­si­ble because of the insu­lat­ing qual­i­ties of the Fox Blocks sys­tem.

Absolute­ly. The exte­ri­or walls are two lay­ers of con­tin­u­ous insu­la­tion, the den­si­ty of sol­id con­crete and a lay­er of ½” gyp­sum board on the inside all con­tribute to supe­ri­or sound sup­pres­sion of STC 50 for the whole build­ing enve­lope. Note: A wood frame sys­tem of equiv­a­lent STC rat­ing would be 2 x 4 studs spaced 16˝ o/​c, with 3½˝ absorp­tive mate­r­i­al, 1 lay­er of 5 /8˝ Type X gyp­sum board on resilient chan­nels spaced 16˝ o/​c, and 2 lay­ers of 5 /8˝ Type X gyp­sum board on the oth­er side.

Fox Blocks prod­ucts are com­ple­ment­ed by a full line of acces­sories to make your project’s con­struc­tion eas­i­er. From win­dow and door bucks to the only patent­ed ICF mason­ry anchor on the mar­ket, we have got you cov­ered.

This project is an icon­ic cor­ner­stone at the Dis­ney Springs enter­tain­ment com­plex at Walt Dis­ney World.

A series of homes were built togeth­er to prove the via­bil­i­ty of ICF con­tribut­ing to afford­able, Net Zero homes.

This school has hun­dreds of com­plex shapes and sizes that were accom­mo­dat­ed by Fox Blocks.
