Our Technology

Carbon Logix buildings cost less to heat.

They also benefit from:

  • Air-tight construction, typical values
    <2m3/m2/hr@50pa
  • Thermal mass
  • No cold bridging, even at windows and doors
  • Reduction/omission of building defects
    associated with traditional construction
  • No loss in performance, as there are
    no steel wall ties or metal webs
  • Long term insulation performance
  • In-built fire, and flood resistance

Superior sound insulation

Logix walls combine a solid concrete core, with low density EPS to provide clients
with a quiet, peaceful environment. As the plasterboard can be fixed flush on to the
Logix wall, without an air gap, clients get a reassuring solid sound when they tap
the wall. Performance – less remedial work, build right first time.

Superior fire performance

Every Logix wall is a fire wall. From a minimum of 30 minutes*, for the Contractor4
range, up to 180 minutes* for the 6 and 8 ranges, and that’s without any contribution
from the finishes. In independent testing the surface temperature of a Logix6 wall
rose only 11°C, even after 2 hrs exposure to fire.
*Dependent on level of reinforcement used.

Superior moisture resilience

Above ground the EPS foam used in Logix walls eliminates the need for extra
protection in the form of a vapour barrier, saving time and money. Finishes can
be applied directly to the surface, or with a small gap, depending on the finish required.

The performance of the Logix forms is virtually unaffected by moisture meaning
they can also be used below ground for foundations or basements even in high
water table areas.

Build in a flood risk area?

Logix walls are ideal for areas at risk of flooding, particularly when finished with wet
plaster or cement based wall boards. A Logix wall won’t swell or distort when wet,
and doesn’t support mould or bacterial growth.

Superior strength & durability

Logix walls are typically filled with 25 Newton concrete and the forms are designed
to withstand proper mechanical compaction. This makes them massively strong when compared to those built using traditional methods.

The EPS in a Logix wall is incredibly stable
and will continue to insulate without any
loss in performance over the life of the
building. As the concrete is wrapped
in an EPS blanket it will be protected
from the extremes of tomorrow’s climate.
