Energy Saving and SIPS

In Britain, 27% of our carbon dioxide emissions come from housing. Our future depends on the reduction in energy in all industry sectors, but we can play a part by addressing the problem in construction. Architects, builders, planners and homeowners alike share a responsibility to protect our environment.

With our SIP system, you can rest assured that thermal efficiency is better than any other construction method, because insulation is an integral part of the product. Its immense load bearing strength means less studwork, and therefore fewer cold-bridges. The end product is an airtight building, with no wasted heat through drafts or unnecessary air movement.

This air tightness lends itself to mechanical ventilation and the installation of heat recovery systems, which in turn reduce heating bills. SIPS panels work extremely well with other new systems such as solar, PV and underfloor heating. Ductwork and wiring can be easily and discreetly accommodated.

Because of SIPS’ remarkable insulation, energy costs can be reduced by up to 50% compared to conventional buildings. For examples of this in practise, please contact us.
