ROOFING
Stronger roofs. Better protection.
BetterBlock ICF roofing systems help create durable, insulated structures built for demanding tropical conditions.
PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOT
FASTER CONSTRUCTION
Build faster with an efficient ICF construction system.
MONOLITHIC POURED CONCRETE
Reinforced concrete creates a strong, continuous structural wall.
INSULATION + STRUCTURE
Insulation and reinforced concrete work together in one wall system.
HURRICANE & EARTHQUAKE RESISTANT
Engineered for strength in demanding tropical conditions.
FEATURED ROOFING PROJECTS
WHY BETTERBLOCK ICF?
BetterBlock ICF combines reinforced concrete strength with continuous insulation to help create durable, energy-efficient roof systems designed for demanding tropical conditions in Costa Rica.
SUPERIOR STRENGTH
Reinforced concrete construction provides exceptional structural strength and long-term durability.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Continuous EPS insulation helps maintain more comfortable indoor temperatures while reducing energy demand.
GREATER COMFORT
Better-insulated walls help create more consistent indoor temperatures throughout the building below the roof system.
QUIETER INTERIORS
The insulated concrete assembly can help reduce outside noise while contributing to a solid, durable building envelope.
FASTER CONSTRUCTION
The ICF system combines formwork, insulation and structural wall construction into an efficient building process.
BUILT FOR COSTA RICA
A strong wall system suited to tropical weather and demanding environmental conditions.
THE BETTERBLOCK ICF CONSTRUCTION PROCESS
A streamlined building system that moves from foundation to a strong, insulated concrete structure.
1
FOUNDATION
Prepare the reinforced foundation and layout for the BetterBlock ICF wall system.
→
2
ICF WALL INSTALLATION
Interlocking BetterBlock forms are stacked to create the insulated wall assembly.
→
3
REINFORCEMENT
Steel reinforcement is installed according to the structural requirements of the project.
→
4
CONCRETE PLACEMENT
Concrete is poured into the ICF forms to create the reinforced monolithic structural core.
→
5
BUILDING ENVELOPE
The completed ICF walls provide structure and continuous insulation in one integrated system.
→
6
FINISHED BUILDING
