• PolySteel® homes are capable of withstanding hurricanes, tornadoes, and earthquakes. • PolySteel provides 4-hour fire protection (laboratory tested). PolySteel's extremely low toxicity is 2-1/2 times less than burning wood. Its extremely low flame spread and smoke development make our walls safer from the hazard of fire. • PolySteel reduces flood damage. • PolySteel insulated concrete forms have received complete code approval throughout the United States. They can be used for residential and commercial structures which are designed based on ACI-318. • PolySteel forms are the first and only form on the market available with a National Evaluation Service (Report No. NER-515). This is the first NER Report ever issued on any insulated concrete form system. This is a report that gives PolySteel forms recognition throughout the United States for every building code.
