CaraCor™ Carton Forms are a cost-effective solution to expansive soil mitigation. They are partially machine-manufactured, and are therefore available in certain specific sizes and strengths. They are ideal for residential and light-commercial construction applications where inexpensive, lighter-duty, standard-sized material can be utilized.
CaraCor™ Carton Forms are shipped pre-assembled directly to your yard or jobsite. These easy-to-handle carton form sheets create the necessary void space under concrete structures, thereby protecting them from the costly damage created by heaving soils.
CaraCor™ Carton Forms are produced partly by ingeniously designed machinery. Our other product lines are custom-designed and made completely by hand, but CaraCor is offered in specific strengths and sizes, making it the ideal cost-effective solution for certain types of projects.
Each CaraCor™ Carton Form has a wax-coated exterior cover that contains the interior support network. Both elements are made from corrugated paper, which is very strong when dry, yet completely non-structural when enough moisture has been absorbed. The wax coating impedes absorption, allowing concrete to set sufficiently.
CaraCor™ was originally established in Canada in 1998, and has become a strongly competitive carton void form product. For the past several years, we have replicated the technology and machinery in the U.S. The response has been tremendous as we continue to introduce the product line to residential and light-commercial concrete contractors.
In addition to being very economical, CaraCor™ Carton Forms are offered in the most common sizes and strengths. The lightweight, easy-to-handle pieces are much larger than most, which reduces time and labor during installation. They can be easily cross-cut with a handsaw to fit in non-standard lengths.
Aside from a very thin layer of paraffin wax material, CaraCor™ Carton Forms are completely biodegradable, unlike void forms made from expanded polystyrene or metal. In addition, the raw materials have a very high recycled content, which helps you earn points on your LEED registered project.e.
From start to finish, your experience ordering CaraCor™ Carton Forms could not be easier. In-house estimators will review your project plans and recommend the appropriate components to meet your needs, and then ship them directly to your job site or yard, often in dry trailers for on-site storage.
