Beco WALLFORM
Simple & Sustainable • Insulating Concrete Formwork (ICF)
Beco WALLFORM is a quick and practical method for building insulated structural walls for any type of building. With a proven track record of nearly 40 years worldwide, the lightweight formwork and concrete combination achieves almost any design requirement and the highest performance standards.
WALLFORM is a “green” Modern Method of Construction (MMC) using materials which will last the life of the building and can then be recycled for ongoing sustainability. Interlocking components create the formwork system into which the concrete is poured to give a strong, durable ICF structure which will accept the widest range of cladding specifications. There is a choice of WALLFORM systems to suit most design requirements – basements, multi-storey buildings, low, zero or passive energy performance, - all built using standard ICF components for a practical and quick building process, whether residential, educational, healthcare, leisure, industrial or commercial projects.
40% less energy!
The innovative dry process by which the new generation of boards are produced requires 40% less energy than wet processes.
Less additives!
The single-ply fibreboards require 4% binding agent content (polyurethane resin). Both white glue (3%) for the adhesion of laminated wood layers and latex (5%) to increase strength are not required! 2% paraffin is added to hydrophobized fibreboards.
Biologically harmless!
All GUTEX wood fibreboard insulation boards that are made using the dry process carry the natureplus© seal of quality.
Single-ply construction, up to 200 mm thickness!
GUTEX is the only manufacturer who can provide wood fibreboard insulation in thicknesses up to 200 mm. The boards are single-ply with homogeneous densities throughout their cross sections.
Improved dimensional consistency!
In comparison to wet process production, the new process drastically improves the dimensional uniformity of the boards’ length, width and thickness.
Increased strength with reduced density!
Now, even more vapour permeable!
The new insulation boards are stronger and many feature better thermal conductivity. With an m-value of 3, the new generation of insulation boards offers even better diffusion of moisture.
Reduced installation time!
No breaking, chipping or loss of plies!
Insulation of up to 200 mm thickness installs in a single step, saving time and money!
Thanks to single-ply construction, separation of one ply from another is not possible, nor can the individual plies chip or break away during and after installation.
GUTEX Thermowall approved for thermal composite system thicknesses up to 160 mm!
GUTEX is the first manufacturer to have its thermal composite system approved for installation over both wood and mineral substrates in up to 160 mm thicknesses by the German building materials and physics testing agency.
You can find ecological paints and much more. At our specialist trade shop you will find comprehensive information about all aspects of ecological building.
Right from the beginning we have made it our task to use materials in harmony with nature in an up to date manner.
Our products must not only fulfil stringent test criteria regarding ecology, building biology and healthy living, but they have to demonstrate their qualities and outstanding properties in practice too.
Ecological materials which are difficult to process and apply do not exist in our range of products. For every product we sell we can offer information and advice which is based on practical experience. From natural pure wood from native forests for glue-free laying to odourless unique natural paints or compostable adhesive tapes - our products are always special.
