The Amdeck™ system is an insulated, stay in place concrete form that can be used for virtually any floor or roof construction. It is compatible with any wall type that would normally be used with a typical concrete slab. It is a 4-in-1 system offering structure, insulation, sound attenuation and finished attachment. Amdeck™ is a cost effective, resilient and environmentally friendly construction system helping revolutionize modern construction and change the way we build.
Amdeck™ Eco is designed for low-rise residential applications with longer sections increasing construction speed. The use of dimensional lumber for the joists simplifies the construction by using a commonly available construction material.
Ideal for small buildings and low rise residential.

The AmBuck™ Insulated Block-Out System is a stay-in-place buck formwork designed for creating window and door openings in Insulated Concrete Form (ICF) construction. It replaces traditional wood and vinyl block-outs with a more energy-efficient and durable solution that integrates seamlessly with ICF structures. AmBuck™ provides long-term thermal resistance, prevents thermal bridging, and ensures a faster, more reliable installation process.
A fully insulated buck system that offers stable, long term thermal resistance that surpasses typical wood or vinyl bucks.
AmBuck™ prevents warping, checking, cupping, bowing, rotting, and splitting from occurring, that is seen in most conventional wood-based block-out systems.
Thermal Resistance | 4.2 F.ft2.hr/Btu per inch (0.74m2K/W per inch) (ASTM C518) |
---|---|
Compressive Strength | 20 psi (138 kPA) (ASTM D1621) |
Compatibility | Compatible with 6” (152mm) and 8” (203mm) core Amvic™ R22 and R30 ICF systems. |
