What is SURF BLOCK?
SURF BLOCK MAUI is a locally owned and operated manufacturer of sustainable building materials also known as Surf Blocks.
SURF BLOCKS are insulated composite concrete forms (ICCF’s) that are used to create lightweight, cast-in-place, steel reinforced concrete walls.
The Surf Blocks permanently remain in place as part of the structure and serve as an insulating component for the structure they enclose. There are numerous benefits to this construction methodology which results in an incredibly disaster resistant structure at a competitive price.
Made with EPS (expanded polystyrene) waste
We use surfboard waste to create our blocks, diverting thousands of cubic yards of EPS foam from going into the landfill.
This is a sustainable alternative to ICF (Insulated Concrete Forms), which are hollow foam blocks that are stacked into the shape of the exterior walls of a building, reinforced with steel rebar, and then filled with concrete.
ICF are made of virgin molded EPS. There is little, if any recycled material in white block.
In comparison to white block, SURF BLOCK has approximately 85% of its volume made of recycled EPS foam.
