Cladding / Render
An ICF shell gives you a strong, insulated structure; cladding and render give it its final look and weather protection. At Insubloc, we support a range of finishes that are proven to work with Nudura systems – from thin-coat renders to cladding and brick slips – so you can achieve the appearance you want without compromising performance.
Contact usFinish options for ICF walls
ICF walls are compatible with many common external finishes, including:
-
Thin-coat and specialist renders applied over appropriate basecoats and mesh
-
Timber and composite cladding systems fixed back through the insulation into the concrete core
-
Brick slips or brick-effect systems, often used to match surrounding buildings or planning requirements
We help you and your design team understand how each option is built up, fixed and detailed so it works reliably with the underlying ICF structure.
Key benefits
-
Design freedom – choose a contemporary rendered finish, a traditional brick look or a mix of cladding types to suit planning and aesthetics.
-
Performance maintained – when detailed correctly, cladding and render systems work with the ICF wall to preserve insulation levels, airtightness and weather resistance.
-
Durability – proven systems and sensible detailing reduce the risk of cracking, water ingress or premature failure.
