Not only are NUDURA structures, stronger, safer, more energy efficient and faster to build they contribute significantly to a eco-friendly building envelope. At NUDURA we are committed to improving the building process by manufacturing products that have minimal impact on the environment. Building with NUDURA allows you to offer your customers a more environmentally friendly structure.

PASSIVHAUS

NUDURA Insulated Concrete Forms meet codes for Passivhouse. Passive design minimizes the energy requirements of a building by making best use of assistance from natural factors; typically passive buildings will have a passive solar strategy (highly glazed south façade, a sun space or conservatory) combine this with the  high level of thermal efficiency that NUDURA Insulated Concrete forms offer it allows builder owners the ability to reduce heating and artificial lighting requirements.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY BUILDINGS

Projects specifying NUDURA provide much greater potential for saving valuable environmental resources, reducing energy consumption and CO2 emissions, two major factors facing today’s commercial and residential buildings.
