Next level experience
A SIP buildings system which has minimal thermal bridging and delivers excellent airtightness, and lends itself ideally to LEED and net-zero-ready building standards.
SIP construction as the ideal choice for building an energy-saving class house. Structural insulated panels (SIPs) are one of the most airtight and well insulated building systems available, making them an inherently green product. An airtight SIP building will use less energy to heat and cool, allow for better control over indoor environmental conditions, and reduce construction waste.

STRUCTURAL SUPERIORITY
SIPs structures can withstand harsh weather conditions and extreme climates because when complete, they form a monolithic shell that is seven times stronger than traditional timber frame structures. Beyond providing great structural strength, the monolithic shell gives buildings a solid and robust feel and makes them less susceptible to shifting.

ECO-FRIENDLINESS
SIPs structures have great green credentials due to several reasons. First off, the foam insulation core in these panels has a low global warming potential and a zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP). Also, the great insulation it provides helps keep the energy consumption of buildings low, which is great for the environment.
Second, the exterior of structural insulated panels is made from Oriented Strand Board (OSB3), a material manufactured using fast-growing trees. Fast-growing trees have several environmental benefits, among them being a fast regeneration rate that helps reduce the environmental impact of using forest-derived products. Lastly, structural insulated panels use way less timber compared to traditional timber framing systems. This further bumps up the green credentials of SIPs by helping reduce the impact of deforestation on the environment.
