What is WICFA?

The World Insulated Concrete Form Association (WICFA) is the first unified, nonprofit trade association representing the entire ICF ecosystem — from installers, builders, and engineers to distributors, manufacturers, and suppliers.

Founded by Trevor Brown and Heather Herring Brown of the Build With ICF podcast, WICFA is officially forming as a 501(c)(6) nonprofit, modeled after the National Association of Home Builders. It's built by industry professionals, for industry professionals.

With the ICF industry reaching into over 100 countries and growing demand driven by disaster resilience, energy efficiency, and affordability, the time for a unified industry voice is now.

"The World Insulated Concrete Form Association is dedicated to promoting, protecting, and advancing the use of insulated concrete forms through advocacy, education, industry collaboration, and engagement with policymakers, code officials, and the construction community."

What WICFA Is Built On

A comprehensive platform designed to promote, protect, and advance the ICF construction industry at every level.

📣

Promotion & PR

Amplifying ICF's story in disaster zones, resilient housing conversations, and national media — CNN, Fox News, CNBC. When the next natural disaster hits, WICFA will be there showing why ICF is the answer.

🏛

Advocacy & Lobbying

Working with Capitol Hill lobbyists, state legislators, and insurance industry advocates to make ICF construction the standard for resilient, affordable, and insurable homes across the country.

🎓

Education & Certification

Launching WICFA-certified installer training with cross-brand reciprocity, continuing education credits for architects and engineers, and monthly webinars for members — growing the installer base nationwide.

🤝

Industry Collaboration

Building one sandbox where every ICF professional — installer, distributor, manufacturer, or supplier — plays well together. No trash-talking. No tearing each other down. Rising tide, rising boats.

"I believe 100% that there are people who will get into the ICF industry in 2026 that will be considered pioneers twenty years from now. We are literally on the cusp of this." — Trevor Brown, WICFA Co-Founder & Build With ICF Podcast

Why ICF Near Me Is an Early WICFA Supporter

At ICF Near Me, we've spent years connecting homeowners, builders, and professionals with the best ICF contractors and accessories across the country. We've seen firsthand how fragmented the ICF industry can be — every manufacturer with their own training, every installer working in isolation, no central voice speaking to policymakers.

WICFA changes all of that. A unified association representing the full spectrum of ICF professionals — from the installer on the job site to the engineer in the boardroom — is exactly what this industry needs to break through to the mainstream.

We're proud to be among the first to stand behind this vision. If you believe in building stronger, more resilient, more energy-efficient structures, this organization is for you.

  • Public member directory connecting ICF installers, distributors, and accessories suppliers nationwide
  • WICFA-certified installer program with cross-brand training reciprocity — more qualified installers means more ICF gets built
  • Representation on Capitol Hill advocating for resilient homes, favorable building codes, and ICF insurance discounts
  • Monthly member webinars covering codes, installation, design, and industry updates
