U-value Calculations

Optimising Thermal Performance in Modern Construction

Our Insulated Concrete Formwork (ICF) system is designed to meet the demands of modern building standards, ensuring exceptional performance in insulation, energy efficiency, and structural durability. 

One of the key considerations in any construction project is the U-value—a critical measure of a building element’s thermal efficiency. Simply put, the U-value evaluates how well a wall, floor, or roof retains or resists heat transfer. A lower U-value signifies better insulation, helping to optimise energy performance and reduce heat loss or gain. 

U-Values in Construction

Our Amvic ICF system has been meticulously engineered to help you achieve these objectives. With a U-value calculation based on a λ value of 0.034 W/mK, our 150 mm and 200 mm walls deliver an impressive U-value of 0.25 W/m²K, meeting and exceeding building regulations. This makes Amvic ICF a trusted choice for architects, engineers, contractors, and homeowners looking to build efficiently without compromising on quality.
