CONSTRUCTION SYSTEM - ICF - POLIESPANSO®

The development of Poliespanso's ICF (Insulated Concrete Form) Construction System began in Mantua, Italy in 1986 and it provides for quality solutions for building energy-efficient houses with a very fast and safe ICF building system; the system offers many advantages and qualities that must last over time.

Saving

SAVING

with lower construction costs and guaranteed energy consumption throughout the life of the building

Energy efficiency

ENERGY EFFICIENCY

looking to the future for an eco-sustainable choice with low impact on the environment

The thermal insulation of each individual building is designed specifically for the climate zone.

Poliespanso products and construction system offer many advantages that improve every single stage of construction in the process of constructing ICF energy-efficient buildings:

Floors Slab

Floors Slab Plastbau® Metal

ICF-panel 60 cm wide at the required project length; self-supporting up to a maximum of two metres; height of the panel with variable geometry (H+K) with H-rafter section and incorporated thermal insulation K; to create sanitary slabs, inter-storey slabs and roofs to be reinforced and cast with onsite concrete.

Wall

Wall Plastbau® 3

ICF units, standard 120 cm wide; self-supporting; produced in the required design height; high-density EPS slabs joined and spaced by metal frames that also contribute to the reinforcement of the cement to be cast on site inside them. Total width of each variable geometry element with built-in thermal insulation to build load-bearing walls.

Partition Wall

Partition Wall Plastbau®

60 cm wide structural panel with metal reinforcement, made of EPS and steel metal profiles; thickness ranging from 6 cm to 20 cm; produced to project length. The 2 metal profiles offer an integrated fastening system for quick and easy installation of internal and external finishes. The thickness of the metal C-shaped profiles accounts for 8/10 mm - Distance between the metal profiles 30 cm.

ICF technology for building efficiency: ICF products for floors, roofs, walls and interior walls with built-in thermal insulation; superior structural strength and lightness ideal for earthquake proofing; long-lasting qualities and advantages for an environmentally friendly choice with low environmental impact.
