With an ICF commercial building, greater durability, lower energy costs, and exceptional long-term value are built in.
In Alaska's challenging environment, commercial projects need to be durable, sustainable and structurally resilient. Our specialty in ICF meets these Alaska building standards far better than pre-engineered metal, wood, and other conventional methods. We can ensure exceptional long-term value for our clients because these benefits are, quite literally, built in to the ICF building medium.
The advantages of using ICF for commercial projects—such as hangars, apartments, condos, retail spaces, warehouses, and schools—are numerous. Owners appreciate the superior energy performance, rapid construction, and disaster resilience, while end-users enjoy the quiet comfort and quality of spaces that are built to last.
COMMERCIAL ICF ADVANTAGES:
WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT
LEGENDARY ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Our methods excel in thermally recovering lost heat even in large hangar applications with wide commercial door openings.
Poured concrete walls and floors provide exceptional thermal mass, efficiently storing and releasing heat as needed to regulate temperature.
Buildings boast insulatory ratings upwards of R-50, resulting in potential energy cost savings of up to 70%.
RESILIENCE THAT DEFIES MOTHER NATURE
Our construction methods offer unmatched wind, fire, and seismic resistance.
They include 4-hour/2,000-degree burn ratings against forest fires and impressive 240 mph wind ratings.
ICF structures are inherently resilient, often leading to insurance premium discounts of up to 50% in severe weather-prone areas.
