Abuse-Resistant Finishes
Industrial and institutional buildings are notorious for needing incredibly durable finishes. ICF builders have a range of options that are perfect for prisons, schools, warehouses, and other abuse-prone applications.
Project Profiles: The Heavy Commercial Winners
A school, a church, and a LEED-platinum dormitory took top honors at the 2010 ICF Builder Awards. Whether it’s the hot Arizona sun or a frigid Canadian winter, these projects demonstrate ICF’s suitability for virtually any climate or building type.
- Village Suites
- Immaculate Conception Church
- Alamosa School
Earthworks: An Untapped Market
A profitable and growing niche for ICFs is civil engineering applications; retaining walls, abutments, sea walls, etc. Four different projects using four different types of ICFs demonstrate how companies have taken advantage of this opportunity.
