Liteform Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF)
Liteform Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF) contains the latest developments in ICF technology to reduce labor on Job site. The 16-inch high, 48-inch long Liteform ICF pre-assembled units include a fold able strap that allows forms to be folded flat for storage, packaging, shipping, and handling. Liteform ICF blocks are available in 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 core widths, and all accessories to efficiently build a wall system in completely solid concrete. Insulating concrete form-work provide sustainable and energy-efficient building envelopes.
Benefits
Liteform insulated concrete form provides a continuous insulation barrier that eliminates thermal bridging, air infiltration. No additional cost of insulation or framing that might be caused by external temperature changes. Windows and doors are simple to install in the system. Also, Liteforms’ internal mounting system also serves as an attachment point for any interior or exterior finish. The smooth EPS finish of Liteform is also ready to accept cement finishes such as EIFS Stucco, Hardie plank, vinyl siding or culture stone.
Folding Efficiency
Liteform ICF blocks are developed to reduce the rising costs of shipping, CO2 emissions and site space. We can only offer these savings with our patented fold shapes. Liteform foldable design significantly reduces shipping costs and workspace by 55%. One single truck of Liteform ICF = 7,700 sq ft of the wall compared with other non-collapsible ICFs, which usually fits only 3,500 square feet wall form per truck. These building components reduce carbon production and environmental impact without sacrificing superior strength and performance.
Unique Features
New York PolySteel offers unique features such as exclusive living-hinge technology. Liteform’s patented living hinge improves the economy, reduces shipping costs, simplifies handling, and reduces environmental impact without sacrificing performance. Eliminate waste and reduce assembly time while using Internal Block Locks.
Superior Results
Structures constructed using Liteform ICF’s are designed to last far longer than traditional methods. The use of the Liteform Insulated Concrete form system conserves precious natural forest while promoting sustainable, green buildings that are an investment for the future.
In addition to energy efficiency, New York Polysteel also offer resilient buildings that are more resistant to heavy weather; including hurricanes, floods and fire than buildings constructed from traditional wood.
