Standard Form
The biggest insulated concrete form on the market - 2.44m in length, 45.7cm in height, providing the remarkable 1.12sqm of wall in one step. Insulation thickness of 2х67mm = 13.4cm with λ = 0,033 [W/mK]. The forms are 4-way reversible and fold easily with no deformation due to the Nudura patent technologies. The reinforcing horizontal steel bars is placed in the grooves of the webs, supporting and locking it at the required distance. Forms are available with 100mm (4"), 150mm (6"), 200mm (8"), 250mm (10") and 300mm (12") core cavity thicknesses of walls.
T-Form
The T-forms are available in Long and Short T-variants so that they can be bond stacked, course on course, with each other to create an ideal 16” (406 mm) overlap with the interfacing standards (in a staggered arrangement). The T-blocks enable several possible combinations of thickness main wall and T wall intersection across the 5 core thicknesses of forms.
90° Corner Form
To reduce transport costs, we offer unique corner forms that can be folded. Our forms are fully reversible - no left and right corners to have to worry about having on hand during construction. The blocks have a continuous fastening strip along the corner for even greater durability. Available in the standard 5 core thickness dimensions - 100mm (4"), 150mm (6"), 200mm (8"), 250mm (10") and 300mm (12").
45° Corner Form
Nudura also offers a 45 degree corner form. The form is installed in the same way as the 90° corner form. It can also be folded and is fully reversible to avoid complication with left or right corners. Available in the standard 5 core thickness of wall - 100mm (4"), 150mm (6"), 200mm (8"), 250mm (10") and 300mm (12")

(1.115m2) of wall area in one building step!
ONE Series - corner form unit
The One Series is extremely suitable for construction of elevator shafts and stairwells where Nudura soundproofing features will contribute to the comfort in the adjoining rooms. The One Series gives the architect wider design versatility for multi-store residential, educational or commercial buildings. Combined with NUDURA’s innovative existing ICF panel system, custom form combinations and transitions between corners are easily done. Once the job is completed all of the form ply panels can be stripped, cleaned and reused for the next job, eliminating waste and further cost.
Brick Ledge Form
When you build with Nudura, you can use the Brick Ledge Form Units to support a brick veneer. The forms provide a stable base and attachment of the facade decoration to the building while offering a variety of ideas and opportunities for the architect to break the building look and style. The form is offered assembled with a built-in, folding hinge and is offered in two lengths - 1.22m (48 ”) and 2.44m (96”) and available again with 10cm (4”), 15cm (6”), 20cm (8”), 25cm (10”) and 30cm (12”) cores.
Brick Ledge Extension
Nudura offers the brick ledge extension to provide greater flexibility when establishing brick ledge locations. The various form units have cores of 10cm (4”), 15cm (6”), 20cm (8”), 25cm (10”) and 30cm (12”), and with a length of 81cm (32") and 34cm (13 1/2") depth. The BLE can be used at any elevation on the wall on either side.
Radius Form
Nudura does not limit your architect dreams and ideas! Nudura makes curves and radius walls easy by providing factory-cut forms designed to your specifications. Nudura's radius form units eliminate wasteful and time-consuming in-field work. They could be custom produced with a specific density and characteristics if desired by the customers.
Taper Top Form
Nudura also makes a taper top form where the foam thickness on one side is reduced to 19.05mm (3/4") between the webs. This allows structural loads from the stud wall above to be transfered directly to the concrete wall below. The form is also available as a single panel and allows a full combination with the rest of the Nudura's forms.
Optimizer
The Optimizer is sized 1.22m by 30.5cm to enable wall heights in multiples of 18", 9", 12" and 6". The block has all of the characteristics of the standard form and is designed to accept full hydraulic loading.
Height Adjuster
Nudura Height Adjusters are used to provide an extra 7.5cm (3") in wall height. They are fully reversible and come with fastening strips to provide important additional form support as well as providing a continuous fastening strip. The form is 81.3cm long.
End Cap
Nudura End Caps slide quickly into place to serve as insulated bucks or bulkheads. End Caps are manufactured with convenient center fastening strip. Available with 10cm (4”), 15cm (6”), 20cm (8”), 25cm (10”) and 30cm (12”) cores.
Easy Buck
Our "Easy Buck" channels are used with dimensional lumber to build window and door openings. Easy Buck channels are fast and easy to install. They reduce thermal briding and the lumber provides a sturdy fastening surface for windows and doors.
Lintels
For a perfectly insulated building, the weakest points, such as the openings of the building, must be well insulated to eliminate thermal bridges. Once the end caps are in place on either side, the Lintel Closers need to be added into the block which will form the top of the door or window. The Lintel Closer should be trimmed so that it bears on the top of the End Caps on either side of the opening. This creates an unbroken thermal barrier between the concrete and the opening. Of course, it can also be used as the base of the window and in that case you are building an insulated home with passive building standards. The forms are available for 10cm (4 ”), 15cm (6”), 20cm (8 ”), 25cm (10”) and 30cm (12 ”) core and have an insulation thickness of 5cm.
Series RetroFit
NUDURA offers insulation panels sized 1.2m x 2.44m (4’ x 8’) for already built up walls. The sheets are easily attached to the wall using the embedded fastening strip and a concrete screw. NUDURA RetroFit Insulation Technology panels fit seamlessly together with a ship-lap system, electrical installation is easily completed, and drywall or Gypsum Board is attached using the 64mm (2 ½”) fastening strip located on 40cm (16”) from the center. When installed, NUDURA RetroFit Insulation Technology provides insulation performance ratings up to R-14.8 resulting in greater energy efficiency and comfort to any home or commercial structure.
