QuickSet is an insulated, internally braced, permanent formwork system for raft foundations that can be used either as a fully insulated system or as edge insulation alone. Our patent-pending system is a revolution in foundation design. Incorporating the insulation panel with a permanent formwork is a game-changer. Designed to be suitable for 90mm, 140mm framing, and above, the system is highly adaptable, working with both QPOD Earth Friendly Pod System and Poly Pods. We have a solution for every scenario under the incoming H1 changes to the New Zealand Building Code.
