Are insulated concrete forms certified by the Saudi Standards, Metrology, and Quality Organization (SASO)?
Yes, insulated concrete form products comply with SASO requirements.

Do insulated concrete forms meet thermal insulation requirements?
Yes, insulated concrete forms meet thermal insulation requirements and achieve a U-value of up to 0.2.

What is the density achieved by the insulated concrete forms?
The density of insulated concrete forms ranges between 18-22 kg.

What finishing materials can be used on insulated concrete forms?
All types of finishes can be used, including standard plaster, metal mesh, fiber mesh, gypsum boards, cement boards, stone facades, clay panels, etc.

Can insulated concrete forms be used for all designs?
Yes, they can be used for all designs, but coordination with the technical team is necessary to make any required adjustments if needed.

What are the features that make the Insulated Concrete Form (ICF) system stand out from other construction systems?
Complete thermal insulation for load-bearing walls: Ensures energy efficiency. Compatibility with all types of finishes: Allows design freedom. Excellent sound insulation: Improves indoor comfort. Easy and quick installation: Reduces construction time. Fire retardant: Enhances safety. Savings on electricity bills: Reduces cooling or heating costs by up to 40%. Resistant to earthquakes, natural disasters, and missiles: Ensures structural durability. Long lifespan: Lasts over 50 years. Competitive price: Compared to other construction techniques. Flexibility in design: Meets various design requirements.

EPS 550FF materials from SABIC, along with National steel and precast concrete, are used.

Are precast insulated concrete forms fire-resistant?
The materials are not fire-resistant, but when burned, they do not produce suffocating gases. However, 15 cm thick concrete walls can resist fire for 1.5 to 2 hours according to Saudi Building Code specifications.

Are precast insulated concrete forms certified by the Saudi Standards, Metrology, and Quality Organization (SASO)?
Yes, precast insulated concrete form products comply with SASO requirements.

Do precast insulated concrete forms meet thermal insulation requirements?
Yes, precast insulated concrete forms meet thermal insulation requirements and achieve a U-value of up to 0.2.

What is the density achieved by the precast insulated concrete forms?
The density of precast insulated concrete forms ranges between 18-22 kg/m³.

What finishing materials can be used on precast insulated concrete forms?
All types of finishes can be used, including standard plaster, metal mesh, fiber mesh, gypsum boards, cement boards, stone facades, clay panels, etc.

Can precast insulated concrete forms be used for all designs?
Precast insulated concrete forms cannot be applied to all designs; they require specific designs because the forms come in predefined measurements.

What is the structural system that precast insulated concrete forms are based on?
