GREEN CONSTRUCTION
What is Arxx?
ICF Construction The Arxx Wallsystem consists of interlocking,
lightweight, expanded polystyrene forms. Designed to be an integral
part of the wall, the forms remain in position after the concrete
is placed. The insulating capacity of expanded polystyrene coupled
with the structural integrity of reinforced concrete is a powerful
combination — it makes Arxx walls stronger, safer, quieter and
more energy efficient. In test after test, Arxx walls meet or
exceed standards set by building codes. Add our talented and
service-oriented technical support network to our excellent products
and it's clear: Arxx is the Total Building Solution for your
building projects. Building Trust - Building Total Solutions.
Why Choose Arxx?
We know that each of your building projects speaks volumes about
your abilities, your commitment — your reputation as a construction
professional. That's why when you choose Arxx products, you choose
excellence. The Arxx Wallsystem outperforms other construction
methods with its design versatility, structural integrity, energy
efficiency, sound reduction, and wind and fire resistance. With
Arxx products your building projects are predictable: on spec,
on time, and on budget.
Stronger and Safer
Arxx walls stand up to the forces of time and nature. The structural
integrity of steel-reinforced concrete provides exceptional protection
from hurricanes and tornadoes. Arxx walls are fire-resistant
too — our wall assemblies can provide a two-, three-, or four-hour
fire resistance rating. No CFCs, HCFCs or formaldehyde is used
in the production of our products, and that means cleaner and
healthier air.
 Energy Efficiency
Arxx walls provide exceptional insulation and this means significant
ongoing savings to building owners and increased comfort to the
people who live and work in Arxx buildings. Our walls can provide
thermal performance values equivalent to, or better than, R-50
wood-frame construction.
Sound Reduction
As noise levels increase, particularly in urban settings, people
crave the calming effects of a quiet environment. The Arxx Wallsystem
can be designed to meet your project's specific acoustical needs;
the polystyrene and concrete assembly means less outside noise
gets in. With Sound Transmission Class (STC) ratings of 50 and
higher available, Arxx walls make indoor peace and quiet a reality.
Construction Efficiency and Cost-effectiveness
The design simplicity of the Arxx Wallsystem means your building
projects flow, from one stage to the next, one form to the next,
one wall to the next. Our unsurpassed network of technical customer
support backs you up, making sure your building project is on
spec, on time, and on budget.
