Foundations You Can Trust
Great Lakes Superior Walls is a franchisee of Superior Walls of America, Ltd., founded in 1981. Superior Walls of America founder Mel Zimmerman desired a method to create a quick and straightforward way to construct better foundations for homes and businesses. This passion led to years of research and development—and the innovative, cost-effective, and eco-friendly precast foundation system was born!
Value That Lasts
The Superior Walls system offers energy efficiency, building strength, and maintenance-free care for structures. The precast foundation walls improve building standards, value, and living comfort compared to conventional construction methods.
Innovation to Beat Regulations
The foundation is the first thing built in new homes or businesses, but often it’s not the first thing in the planning process—and it should be!
The Superior Walls system is a revolutionary alternative to centuries-old building techniques. Our process begins with a custom design and ends with a pre-insulated foundation ready to become valuable added space in a new build.
As building and energy codes have become more stringent, the Superior Walls system has grown and evolved to meet—and lead—industry demands and regulations. Our products come as an R-12.5 wall system with a built-in stud cavity prepared to take on additional insulation. The Superior Walls system is an outstanding alternative to traditional poured walls and stick-framing.
Engineered to Save Time and Money
Nearly everything is insulated in the innovative Xi Wall Precast Concrete Foundation System, including corners, studs, and bond beams.
Exceptional engineering makes this system thermally isolated and protected from exterior elements. The wall system is poured at once with high-strength concrete for solid structural integrity and is reinforced with steel rebar and polypropylene fibers.
The Xi Wall System’s unique high strength, low water concrete mix technology doesn’t require additional damp-proofing, saving time and money. The Xi Wall System has a striking modern look before drywall installation due to the galvanized steel stud facings replacing treated wood nailers. The Xi Wall System’s high-tech engineering and numerous advanced features make it the current top choice among Superior Walls product buyers.
