Beau Preston, President of Omnis Panels said: “We are thrilled to be EnergyEdge LLC’s partner of choice in the US. Slab edge insulation (SEI) is required in IECC Energy and Building codes, while almost all building performance standards promote SEI to save energy in all kinds of construction. Adding EnergyEdge® to our Concrete Technologies products enhances our sustainable building product offerings for architects and builders.”
EnergyEdge® forming systems are extruded PVC “E”-shaped rails with high-density R-10 EPS insulation and serve multiple functions, including:
- EnergyEdge® formwork system insulates slab and foundation edges, meeting ICC building and energy codes.
- EnergyEdge® forming rails replace wood forming boards and provide protection, insulation, and forming options for concrete foundations and slab edges in one product.

About EnergyEdge LLC:
Introduced at the World of Concrete in 2004, the EnergyEdge® concrete edge forming, insulating and protection solution was listed first in that year’s most innovative products. Since then, our IECC code required EnergyEdge has been used in over 35 states in projects large and small. Architect R.Tom Compton invented the patented product solution to seal what a major DOE study calls “The Last Big Leak” in the building envelope, the uninsulated slab edge. Our “stay-in-place” forming rails provide “built-in” performance as well as “built-on” advantages. They not only deliver important building envelope insulation but also link, flash and seal adjacent building systems, materials and finishes, advancing and enhancing their efficiencies. EnergyEdge® products are 100% made in the USA and are now available across the country through the Omnis sales network.
