SUPERSEAL Dimpled Foundation Membrane
SUPERSEAL Dimpled Membrane is made from tough, long lasting plastic that keeps exterior moisture out. It prevents backfill material from touching the foundation wall and bridges typical wall cracks with ease and can be backfilled right away. The dimples in the membrane create a drainage space that allows the wall to breathe. This space allows moisture to condensate outward on to the membrane. By gravity, the moisture then falls to the footing drain for removal.

ICF Hangers
Simpson Tie ICFVL Ledger System
The ICFVL ledger connector system is engineered to solve the challenges of mounting wood or steel ledgers to insulated concrete form (ICF) walls. The ICFVL is designed to provide both vertical and lateral in-plane performance. The system offers many benefits over traditional anchor bolting, including better on-center spacing in most cases, faster installation and no protrusions.
ICFVL
The embedded legs of the ICFVL are embossed for additional stiffness and the hole enables concrete to flow through and around the connector. The exposed flange on the face of the ICF provides a structural surface for mounting either a wood or steel ledger.
| ICFVL | 15 per box | |
| Sold per box | ||
ICFVL – CW/W
The CW/W (J Hook) Ledger attachment slips over the appropriate ledger connector under the ledger. 8 screws are installed through the CW/W into the ICFVL Plate holding up to 1940lbs per hanger.

Burmon Hurricane Anchor - BHBCON Concrete Connection
The ICF Hurricane Anchor has been especially designed for North America’s conditions and modern ICF concrete building techniques to deliver safer, more efficient and higher load rafter/truss anchor connections that deliver significant cost savings over the total house build. The connector is installed before concrete sets, the truss is then placed inside the bracket and fixed using Burmon roofing screws. This finishes the tie down of the trusses eliminating the hassle of going back later to nail off connectors. These feature connected directly to the concrete provides one of the strongest roof tie down connection available.

Burmon Hurricane Anchor - BHBSP Mudsill Connection
The revolutionary Burmon design enables the anchor to be securely fixed directly to the top plate. Using a cordless impact driver, simply attach the bracket to the top plate using Burmon panhead screws. The truss is then placed inside the bracket and fixed using Burmon roofing screws. This finishes the tie down of the trusses eliminating the hassle of going back later to nail off connectors. The Hurricane Anchor is faster and easier to install than ordinary conventional connectors whilst delivering a stronger tie down over the whole roof.

Customer & Partner Testimonials
“I’ve been building ICF houses between 25 and 30 years. This is one of the best technology inventions that has ever hit the building industry… I do have experience with 4 other brands of block and this is by far the strongest.”
Harvey CookIndependent SuperForm ICF Installer
“I have built my own home with SuperForm and know how well it over performs. I also know and understand the benefits of it compared to other ICF block products by other companies.”
Laura TrentFront Design & Drafting
“SuperForm was extremely easy to work with and they met all our target dates. Our project's actually a month ahead of schedule.”
Jason WhirfieldProject Manager, Kanas Corporation
“I have used the product and like it better than what I used prior to SuperForm. I have recommended the product to several people who are now also using it.”
Nathan WipfParkland Colony
“More than 20 years later, after what started off as single family residence that I still reside in today, we’re now beside an 18 story building built with similar [SuperForm ICF] techniques.”
Robert Sipka President, Kanas Corporation
“Love the product, easy to work with.”
RockoDustay Construction Ltd.
“I have a 100% trust-based relationship [with SuperForm]. They care about their installers and they treat us right. My day is made better knowing that I’m not going to have to lug around 200 lb. forms; SuperForm is light and I feel like I can do it until I’m 60 or 70.”
Logan Dejax Revel Ventures
“Excellent Service. Prompt and professional.”
Melinda JamesHard Rock Developments
“When people ask me “Why SuperForm?” I can tell them out of out of experience, from just pumping other block, we don't have the success rate like we do with SuperForm.”
Brandon Elliott Edgecon Concrete Pumping
“Good service and communication. It’s a quality product!”
Bow Island Building Supplies
“I have personally used the product a lot and like the strength of the forms and the way it goes together. I have also received compliments on the straightness of the walls. In my experience it takes less bracing then some others to get a nice job.”
