The ICF Man­u­fac­tur­ers Asso­ci­a­tion (ICF­MA) is very pleased to wel­come its newest Pri­ma­ry Mem­ber, Fox Blocks by Air­lite Plas­tics.

The chal­lenge for this build was to cre­ate a home that would appeal to a sophis­ti­cat­ed buy­er with fea­tures that an emp­ty nester mov­ing from a larg­er more expan­sive home would enjoy. The result is an ener­gy effi­cient home which cre­ative­ly uses space in an attrac­tive, lux­u­ri­ous, and cost effec­tive way.

Both ver­ti­cal and hor­i­zon­tal ICFs con­struc­tion cre­ate mois­ture- and dis­as­ter-resis­tant walls with excel­lent R‑values. But which is the bet­ter ICF wall?

The home­own­ers want­ed to build a home that would be beau­ti­ful, func­tion­al, and sus­tain­able. They brought in an ICF expert con­trac­tor who select­ed Fox Blocks as the ide­al build­ing mate­r­i­al to accom­plish the home­own­ers goals. This home was built direct­ly into a nat­ur­al rock ledge and fea­tures large cov­ered porch­es and breeze­ways on the exte­ri­or and beau­ti­ful oak floors through­out the inte­ri­or. 

We are excit­ed to announce that Fox Blocks is now a mem­ber of the Nation­al Ready Mix Con­crete Asso­ci­a­tion (NRM­CA).
