Insulated Concrete Form (ICF) Blocks from Mexico

Insulated concrete form (ICF) blocks combine expanded polystyrene cores with concrete-receiving shells, designed to be filled with concrete on-site for wall construction. When imported as preformed concrete building blocks, they are classifiable under tariff item 6810.11.00.

Import Tips

• Ensure the blocks are classified as concrete building blocks, not as plastic insulation

• Provide a composition breakdown to show the concrete shell is primary

• Verify compliance with Canadian building codes for ICF systems
