Are structures built with ICF walls safer?
Yes, ICF walls are proven to significantly withstand 2000 degree heat from fire for 3-4 hours and 200 m.p.h. wind caused by severe weather. Structurally superior, the life expectancy for ICF buildings is more than 200 years. Plus, the air inside structures made with ICF walls is safer because there is no air infiltration to encourage mold, dust or pollen. Building materials for ICFs are safer for the environment too.
