What is CONFORM™? Patented Concrete Wall Formwork (CWF)
Components interconnect together to createa finished concrete wall
Rigid polymer components thatserve as concrete formwork for:– bearing walls– non bearing walls– shear walls– retaining walls – foundation walls

Materials
Walls built with CONFORM™ are
comprised of three materials: Concrete,
CONFORM™ polymer components &
Steel reinforcing bars
– Concrete comprises more than 90% (by mass
and volume) of the walls.
– The polymer is a rigid PVC based composite
material used in the manufacture of the hollow
CONFORM™ components
– Steel reinforcing bars are added when required
for structural strength and deflection control of
the concrete walls
TM
Local Building Codes or Design Standards will specify the structural load conditions, load values and load combinations that must be considered in the design of walls.
Axial Loads, Flexural Moments, Shear Loads and other design factors must be considered.
Buildings can be designed to suit dead loads, live loads, wind loads, seismic loads etc.
Refer to our Engineering Guide v1.0 for more information.

Cost Competitive
CONFORM™ is cost competitive with
quality concrete block construction
“Quality” concrete block construction
is
– Built to code
– Built by a qualified contractor
– Paint or finishing on exterior surface
– Paint, or Fiberglass coated interior surface

The CONFORM™ Advantage
Integrated building technology
Solid concrete technology -“Built tough - built to last!”
Easy to design using our CFD (Conform Design) tool bars for AutoCAD
Unparalleled finishing flexibility-Stucco, Drywall, Brick or Stone
Fast-track construction increase bottom line
TM
IntegratedBuilding
Technology Maintenance-free walls that will not leak or rot, is resistant to UV degradation and to mold/mildew growth
Not vulnerable to termites and other pests
CONFORM™ is an integrated building system, it incorporates the insulation/air/vapor barrier within the wall envelope
Since the concrete and steel is encased in a PVC skin it is protected from spalling & the salt spray and air
TM
The only solution that is: Corrosion Resistant
Durable
Easy to Clean
Requires Minimal Maintenance
Constructs Quickly

Corrosion Resistant
Unlike traditional construction
materials, CONFORM™ forming
components are made from an
engineered polymer composite that
does not Corrode, Peel, Chip or Stain,
and is Resistant to Mold & Mildew
TM
