Insulated Concrete Form (ICF) is a system of formwork for reinforced concrete, which is made with a rigid thermal insulation material that stays in place as a permanent interior and exterior substrate for walls, floors, and roofs. Insulated concrete foam blocks or panels are made of expanded polystyrene or other insulating foam, which are stacked to form a building’s wall. It sandwiches a heavy, high-strength material between 2 layers of light and highly insulated foam such as drywall and provides properties such as air-tightness, strength, sound attenuation, and insulation to the structure. This advanced building technology is widely used in the construction of residential and non-residential buildings. The insulated concrete form market is estimated to be USD 1.11 billion in 2018 and is projected to reach USD 1.49 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 5.95% during the forecast period.
