LicataTherm ICF EWI System

ICF insulation is a high-performance insulating material known for its excellent thermal efficiency, durability, and ease of application. It has become a preferred choice for external wall insulation when working with insulating concrete formwork (ICF) due to its outstanding insulating properties and long-term energy savings. But before we go any further, let’s answer a fundamental question: what is ICF insulation?

ICF insulation consists of rigid foam panels or blocks designed to remain in place as part of the building structure, providing continuous thermal performance. It features a high-insulation value, reducing thermal bridging and improving overall energy efficiency. This makes it ideal for projects where robust insulation is required alongside structural integrity.

At Licata, we integrate ICF insulation into our LicataTherm ICF EWI System to ensure superior building performance. However, its benefits extend beyond just external wall insulation. ICF insulation is also:

• Used in foundation walls to improve thermal efficiency and moisture resistance.
• Applied in roofing systems to enhance energy retention and reduce heat loss.
• Installed in floors and ceilings for additional insulation in energy-efficient buildings.
• Utilised in industrial and commercial structures for superior thermal performance.
• Preferred for both new builds and retrofit projects where high insulation values are essential.

With its exceptional thermal properties, fire compliance, and ease of installation, ICF insulation is a smart choice for modern construction and refurbishment projects.
