The system is designed for rapid deployment and installation. Compared to traditional construction techniques such as wood or steel, FOMCON requires less than one-fourth the shipping space. In addition, FOMCON takes less time to build. These two factors save time and money.

FOMCON is less expensive and more durable than traditional construction. Due to the materials used, and the way the system is constructed, FOMCONís composite construction method combines the strength of lightweight materials such as PVC and foam to enhance the rigidity and load- bearing capabilities of aluminum and steel.

Worldwide Structures has also developed an insulated flooring system, FOMFLOOR, for use in situations calling for a crawl space or when the building is to be erected on rough terrain. The floor has an insulation rating of R40+.

FOMCON is ecologically sound. The system uses more recycled materials than any other comparable building system. Also, due to its remarkably high insulating abilities, the FOMCON building system saves energy, and money, by reducing heating and air conditioning costs.
