ADVANTAGES OF SIPS BUILDINGS

Energy efficiency

  • Air tight structures achieved with less than one air change per hour.
  • U values of 0.08 ( 245mm thick) to 0.28 (100mm)
  • Speed of installation - Fast track building.

Environmentally friendly

  • Minimum waste produced on site due to off site manufacture.
  • All Timber used is from fast growing trees which are replenished.

Egan Compliance

  • Fast Track Building.
  • Reduced dependence upon ‘wet trades’
  • Site time reduced - due to Panelised construction in various width modules.
  • Follow on trades can begin as soon as the ‘envelope’ is constructed.
  • Defects minimised due to precision engineering.
  • PPG 3 - excellent solution to Planning policy guidance note 3, sip enables ‘rooms within roofs’ to maximise space as well as greater overall foot print utilisation.
