  • Requires between 35% to 45% less dimensional lumber.
  • Superior Sound Insulation.
  • Complex Roof Systems are installed faster and require less high-priced skilled labor on site.
  • Greater Structural Performance and Greater Structural Design Flexibility.  Cantilever Options are less expensive and easier to execute. 
  • Contributes to a higher Energy Star Rating. Typically a Platinum Rating.
  • Contributes to improved scores concerning LEED Program. (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design)
  • Environmentally Responsible – Less Material Waste – A Green Building Material.

    SIPs MAKE YOUR JOB EASIER;  SAVE YOU MONEY, AND ARE KIND TO THE ENVIRONMENT
     
    • Reduced job-site injuries since panels are erected in far less time than stick-frame and workers are in fewer vulnerable positions on the job site.
    • Better quality and increased energy efficiency compared to site-built stick-frame. 
    • Less labor at lower wages from a broader pool of laborers.
      •  
    • Less on-site storage for SIPs than raw lumber.
    • Lower costs by reducing theft and vandalism because structures are closed up faster in which to store materials.
    • Reduced cost by shortening the schedule and reduce the chance of weather related delays.
    • Less waste, which is a savings of debris removal and environmentally conscious.
    • A fast SIP set is a breeze compared to stick-built framing in the mud.
