Nudura UK is proud to announce that its Insulated Concrete Form (ICF) system has become the one of the first ICF systems in the UK to receive NHBC Accepts accreditation, solidifying its role as a leader in sustainable construction. As the UK construction industry gears up for stricter net-zero carbon targets in 2025, Nudura ICF offers an innovative, eco-friendly, and energy efficient solution for developers and builders alike.
With growing demand for Modern Method of Construction (MMC) and environmentally responsible building practices, the NHBC approval for Nudura ICF comes at a critical time. This recognition means that NHBC has pre-approved Nudura ICF for use in projects, which gives developers confidence in its performance, compliance, and sustainability credentials.
1. Unmatched Energy Efficiency
Nudura ICF provides superior thermal insulation, helping to significantly reduce the energy required to heat and cool buildings. This translates into energy savings of up to 60% for homeowners and a lower overall carbon footprint. As the UK approaches its 2025 sustainability goals, energy-efficient materials like ICF will be critical in meeting these targets.
2. Sustainable Construction Process
Nudura’s ICF system aligns with Modern Methods of Construction, reducing material waste and speeding up construction timelines. The modular, easy-to-install forms streamline the building process, minimizing the environmental impact and providing a more efficient solution for contractors and builders.
3.Long-Term Durability and Reduced Lifecycle Costs
ICF structures are highly resilient, offering superior resistance to fire, moisture, and extreme weather conditions. This durability not only extends the life of buildings but also reduces the need for frequent repairs and maintenance, which results in using fewer resources over the building's lifetime.
4. NHBC Approval Ensures Compliance
The NHBC Accepts accreditation gives developers and contractors confidence that Nudura ICF complies with the UK’s rigorous building standards. This reduces red tape and project delays, streamlining the planning process and ensuring that buildings meet safety and performance standards.
The UK Government’s commitment to achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 places increased pressure on the construction industry to adopt sustainable building methods. Nudura’s NHBC-approved ICF equips developers and builders with a future-proofed solution that addresses both current and upcoming regulations, helping the UK meet its sustainability goals.
The NHBC Accepts accreditation is a major milestone for us,” said Stuart Sadler, Technical Services Director of Nudura UK. “As one of the first ICF system in the UK to receive this approval, we’re excited to offer developers and builders a solution that is not only energy-efficient and eco-friendly but also meets the highest standards of performance and safety. We believe that ICF is the future of sustainable housing, and we’re thrilled to be leading the way.”
