MAKE YOUR DREAM A REALITY

Fox Blocks provides a full range of products and accessories to enable ultimate flexibility in the design and
compatibility for any finishes to create your dream home. And if your dream home is filled with angles, curves
and arches, we can handle that too! Almost any home design can be built with Fox Blocks ICFs.

FOX BLOCKS ICF ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND COMFORT

Fox Blocks ICF homes are far superior to the standard home in energy efficiency because of the thermal mass
of the wall assembly. A Fox Blocks ICF home keeps heat in during the winter and cool air in during the summer.
Our ICF walls are insulated with a solid surface of continuous insulation on the inside and outside wall surfaces,
eliminating air infiltration and heat transfer issues.

A Fox Blocks home offers an extremely quiet living environment with substantially reduced sound transmission
between the outdoors and your indoor living area providing your family a calm, quiet, safe and comfortable home.
