An Introduction to CDI-ICM

CDI > Blog > Uncategorized > An Introduction to CDI-ICM

During the recent Homebuilding and Renovation Show at the NEC in Birmingham Chris was able to get in front of a camera and give an introduction into CDI Innovative Construction Materials and explaining what we are all about and how our systems can benefit peoples projects in a number of different ways.

In the 5 minute interview Chris discusses what we specialise in and in what type of building these are suited to. He discusses how our systems benefit new build and renovations and how they help improve acoustic and underfloor heating performance as well as having many other key benefits.

Chris talks about how removing timber floors and introducing a concrete floor upstairs allows a floor to be stronger, less squeaky, more solid, higher performing and allows you the maximum choice when it comes to design and options on floor finishes.
