SIPs are also made in large sizes up to 8 ft by 24 ft so assembly on-site is faster, framing crews are more productive, and the project is “dried-in” sooner. That means other subcontractors can get a head start on their sandwich panel jobs they need to do. Sips are customizable creatures that reflect your own style. Build yours and play with your friends? SIPs are pre-formed building components that are assembled into structures on building sites. The panels consist of rigid insulating foam laminated between two sheets of Oriented Strand Board.

SIPs are engineered laminated panels with solid foam cores and structural sheathing on each side. The most common types of sheathing or skins materials are oriented strand board (OSB) and plywood. SIPS are basically a structural sandwich composed of two layers of OSB with insulating foam on the interior and can be used for cleanroom panels. The wood used for manufacturing OSB comes from fast growing trees that can be planted and harvested in just a few years.

SIPs are a revolutionary material that can help solve many of the new issues we face in designing and creating today’s built environment. New thinking must come along with this new material. SIPs are used as floors, elevator panels, walls and roofs on all types of building across North America and are shipped around the world for use on the widest variety of buildings imaginable. SIPs are most commonly used as exterior wall panels. However, SIPs are also used as an entire building system, for creating vaulted or cathedral ceilings.
