David Reid Homes Achieves UK Construction First with Insulslab SFRC

David Reid Homes has broken new ground in UK construction by combining Insulslab SFRC, the super insulated and fully integrated foundation system, with an insulating concrete form (ICF) wall from Polysteel. Through intelligent engineering, the two systems have been effectively integrated to create a robust and thermally superior exterior envelope that eradicates thermal bridging and delivers an efficient and cost effective construction method. Pioneered by David Reid Homes-Gatwick for a prestigious design and build project, the innovative technique was adopted to satisfy three key

HPC Homes Pioneers Piled Foundation Technique with Insulslab SFRC

Insulslab SFRC, the innovative super insulated and fully integrated foundation system, has been adopted by Lincolnshire based HPC Homes for a prestigious housing development in Ramsey St Mary’s, Cambridgeshire. Used as a cap on piles at the former agricultural site, Insulslab SFRC facilitated efficient site progression by removing the need for a ‘dig off’, which would have been required with a traditional ring beam detail. The high peat content and poor ground bearing capacity at the rural site dictated that piled foundations were necessary to achieve stability for construction. Evaluating

TI Smith Properties Delivers Code 3 Homes with Insulslab SFRC

Insulslab SFRC, the innovative super insulated and fully integrated foundation system, has been installed at a new affordable housing development in Newport, Wales. Commissioned by Fairlake on behalf of Charter Housing, contractor TI Smith Properties designed high levels of insulation into the building fabric, including Insulslab SFRC, to achieve Level 3 of the Code for Sustainable Homes. Delivering the foundation up to ground floor level, Insulslab SFRC gives the developer greater flexibility over thermal envelope design by significantly improving the insulation performance of the floor.
