ICF Bracing Rental – Giraffe Bracing Systems
To support our customers working on ICF builds, Evans Tedham Building Products offers Giraffe ICF bracing systems for rent —available right from our Calgary yard. We carry several complete sets in stock, ready for weekly rental to help ensure your project runs smoothly and safely.
Giraffe bracing is the industry standard for ICF wall alignment and safety. Designed for ease of setup and precision, these systems allow you to plumb and straighten walls quickly, while providing stable working platforms for pouring and finishing. Whether you’re working on a basement foundation or a multi-storey ICF structure, proper bracing is essential for accurate alignment and a professional finish.
By offering bracing rentals directly, we make it easier for builders and homeowners to access the right equipment without the cost of ownership. Our team can help you plan how many sets you’ll need based on wall height and layout, and coordinate delivery along with your Element ICF materials to save time on logistics.
If you’re planning an ICF project, contact our sales team for availability and weekly rental rates on Giraffe bracing systems — and let us help you keep your next pour straight, safe, and efficient.

Experience the Advantages of
Building with Element ICF
For construction professionals and homeowners across the Calgary region, Element ICF presents a compelling array
of benefits that translate directly into superior building outcomes:
Unrivaled Design Versatility
Are you tired of being constrained by standard forms? Element ICF’s hybrid nature allows for effortless customization, making it the perfect choice for projects with intricate architectural details or non-standard dimensions. From charming single-family homes to expansive commercial complexes, Element ICF adapts to your vision.
Exceptional Energy Efficiency
Energy performance is paramount in Calgary’s diverse climate. Element ICF’s dual layers of high-quality Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) foam creates a continuous thermal barrier, dramatically reducing heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. This translates to significant savings on your energy bills and a more comfortable, sustainable living or working environment.
Unwavering Structural Integrity
Build confidently, knowing that Element ICF creates mighty, durable concrete walls. This robust construction, further enhanced by the insulating foam, offers exceptional resistance to environmental stressors and unpredictable Calgary weather. Choose Element ICF for a structure built to last.
Simplified and Cost-Effective Installation
Time is money when it comes to construction. Element ICF’s intuitive installation process is designed to save you both. The lightweight foam components are easy to handle, and the hybrid system streamlines construction without sacrificing quality or structural integrity. Experience faster build times and reduced labour costs.
Superior Sound Dampening
Element ICF provides outstanding sound insulation beyond thermal efficiency. The insulated concrete walls effectively minimize external noise, creating a quieter, more peaceful, and more productive interior space – a valuable asset for residential and commercial properties.
The ICF building system uses Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) foam blocks that act as hollow forms. Ready-mix concrete is poured into the hollow form to build reinforced concrete walls.
ICF offers energy efficiency, safety, comfort, and faster construction than the more traditional and labour-intensive carpenter hand-built forms. ICFs are becoming increasingly popular as architects and builders worldwide recognize the clear benefits of the technology.
