An introduction to SIP
SIPs
SIPs is a high performance building system using pre-insulated structural panels. Our panels consist of a Polyurethane (PUR) core bonded to sheets of 15mm OSB board.
SIP HUS Ltd
Sip Hus can provide a full structural shell; this typically includes SIP walls and roof, joist and deck system, internal stud walls and all structural elements required ie:glulam/steel beams.
SPEED
Building with SIPs is a fast construction method. It is entirely possible for a 3 bedroom SIP house ‘shell’ to be completed within 1 -2 weeks.
PLUMBING & ELECTRICS
If required on external wall’s they are simply surface mounted and then boarded over. Internal walls are timber stud and services follow a standard installation.
FIRE PERFORMANCE
It has a ½ hour fire resistance as standard with an internal lining of 9.5mm plasterboard. This can be increased to 1 hour by using a 12.5mm Fire Resistant PB instead.
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
Can achieve whole wall and roof U-values of 0.19W/m2K or better. Once installed SIP can easily achieve excellent air tightness values.
STRENGTH
With the Kingspan TEK system you can build single skin buildings up to four storey’s high before requiring additional portal frames.
MORTGAGE
Kingspan TEK is a fully mortgageable build system that is recognized by major warranty providers and is BBA certified.
DESIGN
Any house shape and size is possible, and after the structure is complete you can pretty much clad it with whatever takes your design fancy!
