What is a SIP?

The Insulspan SIP (structural insulating panel) system consists of solid, one-piece, pre-cut SIP
units that are ready to install as wall, floor or roof components suitable for many residential and
commercial building applications. Each SIP consists of a core of molded expanded polystyrene (EPS - learn more) insulation with engineered oriented strand board (OSB - learn more) laminated to the top and bottom faces.

The Insulspan SIP system is a key component in building construction that will reduce energy costs and provide a strong, secure building envelope. For more than 27 years, Insulspan has led the industry in the development and manufacture of structural insulated panels. With knowledge and experience as well as the use of industry-leading technology production equipment, Insulspan is the best choice for projects of any size.

In a recent national building industry survey, Insulspan was rated the number-one Brand Leader in the structural insulated panel industry. According to the survey, 66% of builders found Insulspan to be the most preferred and recognized brand of SIP.
