Fast construction method
On a current project Sips Industries are 3 months ahead of schedule.(as of May 2005)
Environmental advantages
Design flexibility
Sips Industries SIPs can be used for a wide variety of applications and can be fabricated to suit any design of building.
Excellent thermal performance
Sips Industries SIP buildings provide superior thermal performance, which will last the life span of the building. The solid core of insulation throughout the structure ensures that the building is heated evenly, free from cold spots and benefits from reduced heating costs.
Added roof space
Sips Industries Structures do not require roof trusses, therefore providing an additional "room in the roof".
Excellent sound proofing
Sips Industries structures provide significant resistance to airborne sound.
SIPS are quieter and more comfortable to live in
Sips Industries SIP buildings lock out moisture, prevent drafts and provide resistance to sound.
Integral insulation
The insulation is integral to the Sips Industries SIPS system, and therefore does not require installing at a later date, saving time and cost
Stronger
Sips Industries SIP walls are 7 times stronger than conventional timber frame.
Robust and solid feel
Sips Industries SIP structure outwardly appears indistinguishable from 'traditional' methods of construction once complete.
Prevents condensation
There is no risk of condensation in a properly installed Sips Industries SIP house.
Limited cold bridging
Due to the continuity of the Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) layer of rigid insulation, the SIPS system greatly enhances thermal reliability compared with other insulation which often sags or slumps after time.
Solid panels provide a rigid surface for fixings
No additional timber 'noggins' are required to facilitate the hanging of radiators and kitchen units as is required with timber frame construction.
Excellent resale value
SIPs houses are attractive to future buyers and occupiers, due to the inexpensive running costs of a SIPS structure and the many other rewards a SIPS house provides
