Isoquick - The Insulated Raft

Isoquick®...without doubt a genius profile!
At it's simplest level ISOQUICK® is load bearing shuttering system made from high quality, high strength insulation. It is designed to sit between the ground and your foundation slab effectively isolating and insulating the whole of your building from the ground.
This approach eliminates the need for trench foundations, saves you time, concrete, CO2
and money.
ISOQUICK® insulating foundations are based on the concept of raft foundations using a semi-rigid foundation slab. The simple geometry makes it the optimum insulation and also provides robust structural results. This concept dispenses with the need for complex concrete frost skirts, edge thickenings or strip foundations.
This clever system enables a diverse range of insulation and concrete profiles. The modules are prefabricated individually and then joined together seamlessly on the construction site to virtually eliminate waste. What is more, complex and costly labour, including setting up and stripping formwork, can be done away with.
The pyramid-shaped button profile that is characteristic of ISOQUICK® provides unique advantages compared to smooth insulating panels. The individual components cannot shift during either installation or concreting and thus form a stable shutter. The patented structure also increases the stability of the building. Force resulting, for example, from ground pressure on one side of the building can be transmitted into the subsoil via the ISOQUICK® insulating foundation. The special shape of the edge pieces enables both a thermal bridge-free transition (certified passive house components) to the adjoining walls as well as effective damp proof sealing.
The ISOQUICK® insulating foundation is a well-designed comprehensive system with national technical approval that takes into account the ongoing drive towards energy saving construction. Put some warm socks on your house and stand up to increasing energy prices: ISOQUICK® insulating foundations enable you to build in an ecologically sensible, future-oriented and cost-conscious manner.
