Residential Structural Insulated Panels Systems/Residential Green Homes

Coolstructures' Insulated Metal Panels (SIPS) provide both insulation and structural integrity which make construction efficient:

• Lightweight insulated metal panels improve construction efficiencies
• Walls, floors and roofs can be manufactured from 3 to 12 inches thick
  
• Textures (such as stucco) and color options are multiple; brick facings or siding can be added

 Traditional Structural Insulated Panels Systems typically utilize OSB laminates glued over polystyrene core insulation. OSB panels are heavy and require wood framing, absorb moisture and must also include siding to make them weather-proof.

Coolstructures's energy efficient composite panels are produced by laminating aluminum or steel over high-quality polystyrene, resulting in lighter, more durable insulated panels suitable for green homes. They do not require additional membranes to achieve impermeability to water and are fully recommended for exterior use.
