Biggest load of overhyped tosh going..... not a fan of it at all..... very expensive way of shuttering retaining walls.... very fiddly way of building a house. Seems to me there biggest selling point is speed.... which soon falls down if your doing the prep properly.
I really haven’t a clue about building- but isn’t the benefit that you get the house insulated and built all in one go. Not sure how costs compare to a traditional build. One of my customers is the west of England distributor for Nudura and thought I recognised it in your pics.

Yes, ##### (not naming for obvious reasons).... weird bunch IMHO with some strange ideas.... "if you only loose a wheelbarrow or two in a formwork burst it's not a failure" amongst some other nonsense.

We've been involved in a few.... mostly retaining structures which tbh means any insulation benefit is instantly pointless.

And if you want to alter walls etc in years to come a right faff. Naff all to fix to in walls either. It is supposed give you a very well insulated house mind but deffo wouldn't be my choice.

Biggest concern I have is the inevitable requirement to demolish it in the future..... "special waste" almost inevitably.

That's another thing about all the "eco" lower carbon footprint buildings they are building now though they are not being built to last 400yr like an old stone building and be renovated and re purposed. They'll have a short lifespan and then need demolished. Interestingly a house built with an earlier version of those blocks near here is in the process of having two little extensions put on it. They are using cavity blockwork, how the f they are tying that into polystyrene blocks I've no idea 🤷‍♂️

With @JD450A opinion on construction line / safe contractor type schemes, I was shocked to read this :ROFLMAO:
