Graphite EPS Sandwich Cement Board Panel Insulated Concrete Forms Stacking Wall BuildBlocks ICFs
The outer module layer is 50mm thick, and the inner side contains a cavity structure with similar thickness. Concrete is poured into the cavities, and once it solidifies, the molds are removed to form an insulated, load-bearing, and fireproof wall system. This method, called the sandwich insulation cast-in-situ system, provides excellent thermal insulation, with a thermal conductivity of 0.028 W/m.k, equivalent to a 4.6-meter brick wall. In winter, buildings constructed using this system can maintain indoor temperatures between 15-22°C with minimal heating.
These EPS energy-saving modules have a compressive strength of up to 28MPa, comparable to 80% of traditional walls. The insulation layer lasts as long as the building itself, ensuring a stable structure that can last for decades.

Key Characteristics:
- Strength: ICFs create walls up to ten times stronger than wood frames, offering better resistance to natural forces.
- Sound Absorption: ICF walls significantly reduce sound transmission, depending on thickness, materials, and airtightness.
- Fire Protection: ICF walls have a fire resistance rating of 4-6 hours, far outperforming wood or steel structures.
- Indoor Air Quality: ICFs regulate humidity, reduce mold risk, and improve thermal performance without a plastic vapor barrier.
- Environmental Sensitivity: ICFs can incorporate recycled materials, use fewer resources, and generate minimal waste.
Building Process:
ICF construction is more straightforward, requiring less skilled labor to lay forms. Openings for doors and windows don't require extra structural support, unlike wood-frame construction. However, care is needed during concrete pouring to ensure a solid, crack-free join.
Cost Efficiency:
ICF construction typically costs about 40% less than traditional methods due to labor savings. Although above-grade ICF construction can be more expensive, it becomes cost-effective for larger openings, as no large headers or posts are needed. Long-term savings include reduced energy consumption and lower insurance costs, as ICF buildings are more resilient to natural disasters.
