Commercially, ICFs deliver proven energy efficiency, significantly reduced maintenance, lower cost of ownership, increased tenant comfort & satisfaction, faster construction, and disaster resilience.
The Bonobo Winery is located in Traverse City Michigan, a tourist destination and regional area of commerce for many people. People flock to the area in the spring, summer, and fall to see the lakes, sunsets, cherry trees and vineyards. Bonobo has a high traffic volume and helps to educate more people about the advantages of energy efficient construction and ICF technology, especially in the wine industry.
