For multifamily construction, Nudura® Insulated Concrete Forms (ICFs) offer numerous advantages for both the building owner and occupants, including exceptional insulation, soundproofing and durability.
The energy efficiency translates to more consistent interior temperatures for tenant comfort and reduced heating and cooling costs. Using ICFs for interior walls enables sound dampening between units for quieter living environments. ICF structures are also stronger than traditional wood-framing and have added fire-resistance to protect occupants from natural disasters and other dangers. These benefits make ICF a smart choice for both developers and residents, balancing immediate and long-term value.
