LEED Information

When LiteForm® Technologies' ICF products are incorporated into the exterior envelope of a building, the energy efficiency and material properties can help contribute in 4 of the 6 LEED-NC categories. Summarized below are the categories in which LiteForm® ICF's can contribute towards a building certification.

Energy and Atmosphere (EA):
Combined with other components like energy efficient glazing and window units, well insulated roof assemblies, and design strategies like effective solar orientation, Lite-Form® can contribute to a project qualifying for minimum energy performance under EA Prerequisite 2, and for additional credits for energy performance beyond the minimum national and local energy code requirements, under the Optimized Energy Performance category.

Materials and Resources (MR):
Recycled Content of Lite-Form® Lite-Deck® Top Hats are manufactured with 100% Recycled EPS. 80% Post Industrial / 20% Post Consumer. LiteForm® Sheet Foam is manufactured with Recycled EPS (80% Post Industrial / 20% Post Consumer)
Indoor Environmental Quality (EQ): LiteForm® Technologies, incorporated into a project as part of an overall LEED conforming envelope will contribute to reducing air infiltration, reducing temperature swings and minimizing accidental humidification and condensation.

Innovation & Design Process (ID):
The durability of the concrete structure created through the use of LiteForm® Technologies and the inert and inorganic features of the forms help the product contribute to LEED credits under this category.
