"50% less energy than a typical Urban Townhouse!

When we first visited, it was the height of summer in early December, it was a stinking hot period of several days of really hot weather, and it struck me just how cool the house was."

Shelley Wood, Prince's Terraces Resident

“We felt truly safe and protected in our cocoon during the COVID lockdown.”

Ian, Diamond Creek

“High energy-rated house –
Set on a spectacular hilltop in central Victoria, this home was designed with structural base walls of ZEGO ICFs. The result is a monumental, high energy-rated house in a harsh but beautiful environment.”

Robert Harwood, Architect

"Delighted to have you working on this exciting project with us."

The Princes Terraces, Bowden, SA

"I’ve been a renderer for 25 years. I was contracted to render a ZEGO home many years ago and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Two of the most important benefits for me as a renderer were the straight true walls due to the wall alignment system and the dove tail vertical grooving on the walls both externally and internally which allow the acrylic render to be supported not only when first applied but also mechanically locks the acrylic render to the foam once dry. Since my first project, we’ve rendered numerous projects using ZEGO and I recently built an extension to my own home using ZEGO."

George Yaacoub, Renderer, Sydney

"ZEGO ReFORM is a re-usable formwork to reduce costs and waste. I like the imprints of the formwork and subtle deformations in the wall that play against the light."

Alexander Symes, Architect – Upside Down Akubra House

"I’d like to say how much I have enjoyed working with Zego. It says a lot that a computer nerd with limited DIY skills can build a house like this almost entirely unaided. It took 6 months but I could only build in my spare time while still working full time. I think this shows how good the ZEGO system is."

Mark, Owner Builder

Anthony Palumbo, Principal Estimator

"Always keen on energy-efficient and versatile building systems, we had no doubt to propose the ZEGO System to an open minded client of ours, very responsive to embrace this new sustainable alternative system to the conventional methods. We couldn’t have chosen better: not only was the construction process fast and quiet, but also the ICF has immediately offered the owner the benefits of an eco-friendly structure in terms of energy savings and internal comfort level with no use of any air conditioning. Our ‘love story’ with ZEGO is ongoing: already commissioned to use it again soon!"

Michele De Vido Interno61.

“The ZEGO form in Reform, Fire Form and the domestic series in Kewarra, North Queensland have proven themselves as a sound, time and cost effective solution every time.”

“I have developed many commercial systems, climbing forms, progressive tower lift platforms and utilised various modular forms over the last 38 years but I am absolutely sold on the function and benefits produced by the ZEGO product, especially for the Fiji market.”

The ZEGO process in Fiji has now completed the following projects:
Wyndham Resort Stage III – Naisoso Island Residence, Nadi – Sovereign Quays Residence, Denarau Island – Lautoka Hospital A&E and Operating Theatres, Lautoka – Colonial War Memorial Hospital, Acute Medical Hub Development, Suva – Palms Apartments, Denarau Island

Construction Manager, Director, ADEPTMO

"We have now moved into our renovated house. The ZEGO has been awesome throughout summer. We are very comfortable even without air conditioning!

We are now considering building a pool and are interested in using ZEGO again."

Vanessa Giliberti, Chatswood, NSW

"You can be proud of a great product.

I am still so impressed by the wonderful system, cannot believe the insulated quality I have. Absolutely awesome!

Best move I ever made with building decision. In this day and environmental age, it should almost be made mandatory. The energy savings are immense and smart."

Robert Zimmermann Built in Maude, VIC in 2007

"These are maintenance-free homes, The strength and durability of the concrete slab, walls and upper floors means there won’t be the maintenance required compared to that of a conventional timber framed house."

Elvis Lazic, Optima Constructions

"I do wish that, in the future, more homes are constructed this way as I sincerely believe that it can be an economical and environmentally friendly means especially as the building ages."

Greg Curtis, Home owner

"It was a beautiful house to live in, it performed particularly well in the winter – with the north facing glass and the fabulous thermal mass of the walls we found that the house held its temperature really well. In fact we would often have to open windows during winter with the fire going as it would get too hot inside. It was also a quiet house, often not hearing if someone had driven up. We are now living in a brick veneer rental property and have noticed the difference. Funnily it was our real estate agent who brought the property!"

Matt & Abby Clare, SA, Clare, SA

"As a specialist cladding installer, I particularly enjoy using the ZEGO Z-Board because it is fast and easy to work with, requiring minimal tools to install and no site congestion.I can achieve the same end result as a rendered brick veneer finish with a light weight material that also insulates. It is fantastic for house extensions and additions."

Vic Arapovic, Cladding Specialist

"We engaged Conty Constructions to supply and erect ZEGO, insulated concrete forms as part of our owner build job. We were extremely happy with the job they did. The crew were very friendly and happy to work in with other trades on site. I was impressed at how thorough they were in cleaning up at the end of the job. Kemal was a great help with advice on how to proceed, as well as making improvements and cost savings. I would not hesitate to recommend Conty Constructions for a building project."
