How do you improve an Insu­lat­ed Con­crete Form wall that already out-per­forms most wall sys­tems in all cli­mates? You move the con­crete mass toward the liv­ing side of the wall.

With advice from lead­ing con­trac­tors in the Insu­lat­ed Con­crete Form busi­ness, Fox Blocks has cre­at­ed an incred­i­ble group of blocks.

We know esti­mat­ing for an ICF project can be daunt­ing if you don’t know where to start, so we’ve cre­at­ed this help­ful video tuto­r­i­al.

In this video, Fox Blocks’ Glen Klassen shows how to make a mitered cor­ner with the Cor­bel Ledge Block.

We built a test wall 440 feet long x 9′-4″ tall with 24 turns, with no brac­ing or strap­ping, to test the 90 degree blocks with con­crete.

Fox Blocks is exhibit­ing at the AIA Nation­al Con­ven­tion being held here in New Orleans now through May 14^th.

Fox Blocks is excit­ed to announce con­tin­ued expan­sion of our ICF man­u­fac­tur­ing loca­tions! We are now being pro­duced in Keller, TX and Nixa, MO- bring­ing the total to 18 man­u­fac­tur­ing points across the US and Cana­da.

Fox Blocks was con­tact­ed to sup­ply some info for a quick sto­ry air­ing on Fox News, on fire resis­tant homes and ICFs.
