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

8” wall
150 mm -
6” wall
CF8iCF8CF6CF4
100 mm -
4” wall
5. 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
6. 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.

8. 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

9. 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
10. Integrated
Building 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
11. The only solution that is:
Corrosion Resistant
Durable
Easy to Clean
Requires Minimal Maintenance
Constructs Quickly
TM
12. 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
13. Constructs Quickly
Every project is custom made in our factory
All components are pre-cut and labeled for
easy on site assembly
Less skilled labor required on site
Cleaner overall work site
TM
14. 85% recycled content pre- and post-consumer
