The Benefits of ICF: Increased Strength

In university tests, Fold-Form® solid concrete walls were proven to be the best protection against flying debris in winds up to 250 mph, when compared to conventional framing and hollow concrete block walls.*

High-efficiency ICF structures are often considered the lowest possible risk for major damage from winds, fire and earthquakes. In turn, many insurance carriers award the lowest possible rates to residential and commercial buildings constructed with the Fold-Form system.
