The CFS Advantage
Cold-formed steel offers superior performance, sustainability, and safety.
Fire Resistant
CFS framing is non-combustible and has proven to survive California wildfires while wood-framed homes burned.
Earthquake Safe
Cold-formed steel provides superior seismic performance with high strength-to-weight ratio.
Termite & Mold Proof
Unlike wood framing, steel doesn't attract termites, rot, or develop mold.
Environmentally Friendly
CFS is 100% recyclable with net-zero waste manufacturing.
Faster Construction
Pre-fabricated steel framing means faster on-site assembly. Reduce time by up to 50%.
Precision Quality
Factory-fabricated to exact specifications with computer-controlled manufacturing.
Steel Frames Survive California Wildfires
In the devastating California wildfires, homes with CFS framing stood strong while wood-framed houses just 8 feet away burned completely.
