Concrewall Structural Concrete Insulated Panels can be used for many construction applications, including Residential, Industrial, Commercial, Multi-Story Housing, Public Buildings, Federal/Military projects, and other buildings (fences, swimming pools, bust stops, etc.).

SCIP (Structural Concrete Insulated Panels) construction and ICF (Insulated Concrete Form) construction are both methods used in the construction industry to create energy-efficient and durable buildings. While they share some similarities, there are several key differences between the two. 
Here are seven differences:

Construction Technique
Insulation Method
Structural Integrity
Construction Time
Construction Cost
Building Envelope
Design Flexibility

Concrewall USA has an exclusive partnership with The Schnell Group of Italy. Concrewall manufactures Structural Concrete Insulated Panels (SCIP) exclusively in North America using best-in-class Schnell Home machinery.

Our team’s industry expertise, reliability, and personalized approach make us a trusted choice for construction projects of any scale.

Concrewall USA Headquarters is located in Panama City, Florida and we have the capability of servicing coast to coast.

Concrewall manufactures Structural Concrete Insulated Panels (SCIP) design-to-order for qualifying projects. To ensure the integrity of the SCIP building system and quality of results, we may provide comprehensive construction services, including structural design assistance, workforce training, subcontractor solutions, and post-construction support.

Concrewall has carried out many different laboratory tests that certify the numerous qualities of the panels.

1. Hurricane Debris Missile Impact Test: The Single Panels successfully passed the missile tests with estimated wind speeds around 320 km/h – 200 mph
2. Fire Resistance Test
3. Acoustic Isolation Test
4. Floor Panel Bending Test: Single Panel 400 cm x 400 cm was progressively loaded towards the breaking point which corresponds to a uniformly distributed nominal load well over 2000 kg/m2. The test was done by slowly filling a water tank measuring 300 cm x 300 cm and 200 cm high.
5. Mechanical Resistance Test – Compression and Shear: The minimum value from the results of the testing for breakage under compression was 70 tons. This means that the Single Panel is able to support the loads from a six storey building. Single Panel with 3 cm of shotcrete per side = 20 MPa = 3000 PSI.
6. Thermal Transmittance Test

Concrewall SCIP products meet all NOA Requirements and are approved for use in Miami-Dade County.  ICC Evaluation Reports are also available for review. 

Concrewall prioritizes quality and safety at every stage of the construction process. We adhere to industry best practices, employ skilled professionals, and implement rigorous safety protocols. In order to ensure the highest standards are met on every project, we may require system training for our clients prior to purchase of panels.

Yes, Concrewall provides detailed cost estimates tailored to each project’s requirements. Project inquiries must meet our qualifications for location, timing and type/size of construction prior to an estimate being provided. Project plans are necessary to receive a project estimate. 

The first US Concrewall facility is located in Panama City, Florida. Currently, we are primarily serving the Gulf Coast Region. However, we are open to discussing projects outside of this region.

The timeline for receiving panels depends on the location and size of your project. A more detailed timeline expectation will be outlined during the estimation process. Products can be delivered to project site at the desired date & time.

Concrewall is offering a more sustainable and fortified framing system for all applications. The advantages for building & living speak for themselves.

Concrewall is providing a construction system solution that will significantly improve the durability of our communities nationwide. In addition to saving time and money for builders and developers, concrete construction can reduce insurance premiums for property owners.

The “R-value” is a measure of thermal resistance used in the construction and building industry to quantify how well a material insulates against the flow of heat.

The R-Value of a standard Concrewall single panel is about 17.5. To increase the R-Value, the thickness and density of EPS can be modified according to project needs.

Yes. When using Concrewall’s SCIP system, the framing component and insulation component can be completed simultaneously by simply erecting the lightweight, cut-to-design panels. Once electrical and plumbing technicians have completed their work, all that’s left is shotcrete application for a reinforced structural shell. We call this the “Gray Shell”.

Concrewall works with affiliated construction teams skilled in the installation of SCIP to help provide subcontracting services for the “gray shell” of the project. Availability depends on the location, timeline, and size of your construction project.

In order to ensure the highest standards are met on every project using Concrewall SCIP panels, we will provide system training, tools, and equipment for our clients prior to purchase of panels. On-site or remote support will be available throughout the duration of SCIP installation.

The Concrewall SCIP system typically uses wire-mesh accessories to connect the wall and floor/roof panels prior to concrete application.

In some cases, the solution for connecting wall panels to the floor/roof panel is using a bond beam. The wall to floor bond beam is installed around the exterior of the structure. The use of a bond beam depends on project plans and the consideration of the structural engineer.

Preparation for electrical and plumbing takes place once the floor panel installation is complete. A hot-air gun or torch is used to create channels in the polystyrene for the placement of switch boxes, electrical conduits, cables, pipes, etc. It is recommended that the SCIP Contractor create these channels rather than the plumber and electrician.

Spanning is a critical consideration in construction because it directly affects the load-bearing capacity and structural integrity of a building.

The span capacity of the Concrewall system is directly related to the load in the project’s structural design, application, and the use of the structure.

The Concrewall system has an excellence performance in extreme weather scenarios due to its monolithic structure. Concrewall SCIP structures can support wind loads of up to 200 mph.
