Stax ICF Blocks
Our premade forms fit together as large interlocking blocks. We use two EPS panels spaced apart by high strength polypropylene webs, that form an insulated permanent shuttering into which concrete is poured.
By using polypropylene instead of steel webs, we can further reduce thermal bridging and these webs maintain a core thickness between the EPS panels of either 150mm (300mm ICF block) or 200mm (350mm ICF block).
300MM – STANDARD ICF BLOCK
300mm Straight Form | |

Length x Height x Width(mm) | 1200 x 400 x 300 |
Width of Concrete Form (mm) | 150 |
Width of Concrete (m3)/m2 of wall | 0.014 |
U-Value (W/m2K) | 0.20 |
Average area weighted (Um) U-Value (W/m2K) | <0.18 |
300mm Straight Form are comprised of two insulating EPS panels (75mm thick) connected by high strength polypropylene webs. These webs maintain a core thickness between the EPS panels of 150mm, where the concrete is poured.
- Suitable for foundations & ground floor

300mm Vertical Cavity Closer | |
---|---|
Length x Height x Width (mm) | 400 x 150 x 75 |
The 300mm Vertical Cavity Closer slots neatly into either the 300mm corner or straight forms to close off the concrete core at the sides of openings.
- Fits into 300m straight or corner ends
- Essential to minimise thermal bridging
- Reversible
300mm Horizontal Cavity Closer | |
---|---|
Length x Height x Width (mm) | 1200 x 150 x 65 |
The 300mm Horizontal Cavity Closer fits neatly into either the top or bottom of the 300mm straight forms to close off the concrete core at the heads and sills of openings
- Fits into 300m straight or corner ends
- Essential to minimise thermal bridging
- Reversible
350MM – ICF BLOCK FOR MULTI-STOREY & APARTMENTS
350mm Straight Form |
