Green Building Material PlasterMax-ICF

GigaCrete has reinvented PlasterMax-ICF. Previously PlasterMax-
ICF Base Coat at 3/8” thick was needed to meet the fire
code over ICF construction to replace ½” gypsum board with a 15
minute barrier. On April 26, 2010, GigaCrete installed 1/8” new
PlasterMax over ICF walls and passed NFPA 286 again at 1/3 the
previous thickness. This material when tested by ASTM compression
tests is 8,000 psi, double the previous PlasterMax-ICF Base
Coat approximately 4,000 psi. This new version dubbed “thin coat”
will also replace PlasterMax-IND over drywall thereby simplifying
the family of PlasterMax down to one product. This new version
can be used over ICF, SIP’s panels, CMU and concrete, gypsum
board and other potential substrates. PlasterMax is non-combustible
and with EIFS type mesh costs a little over $1.00 per sq. ft.
in materials.
