Why SIPs
There are a lot of reasons to choose SIPs for your future home or business. Here are the three that we hear most from people like you:
Comfort
You’re building a place where you and those you care about will spend a lot of time. Of course you want it to be beautiful and efficient, but don’t underestimate the joy of simple comfort. Our structures are sealed in a way that is very difficult to achieve in a “stick-built,” structure. This is good for every reason, but your comfort should be one of the biggest and is often one of the most overlooked. It’s a difference you’ll notice the first time and every time.
Health
Air quality is one of those things that we assume as we enter a building. Unfortunately, really clean indoor air is less common than we often think. the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME), 2.6 million people died prematurely in 2016 from illness attributable to household air pollution. Because of the airtight nature of SIP construction, a ventilation system is used to maintain excellent air quality.
Value(s)
We are aware that our work is not cheap. It’s an investment in quality for your comfort, you and your guests’ health, and the well-being of our environment. Those are worthy things to invest in and, with the durability of a Panel home, that investment will last for a very long time. Those are the values that inform our work and relationships here at Foard Panel. They’re also the values that drive our clients.
Why Us
We’ve been doing this for almost 35 years. Along the way, we’ve learned more than our fair share about how to build with SIPs in a way that makes the most of their potential.
Experience (installation, how it fits, making it sealed)
The building of a high-efficiency structure is incredibly important and technical, but it all fundamentally comes down to your comfort and your timeline. There is literally no one who has more experience designing and building SIP structures than we do and that matters. We pre-cut panels at our facility and then send a crew along to make sure that it’s put together exactly right to make the highest performance structure you can find.
Technique (engineering, design, joining)
We have a design and engineering team in-house—one of the only SIP manufacturer that has this—to go over every plan and make sure that they will work seamlessly for your project. Just like with any technical endeavor, there really is a right way and a wrong way to do things. We are a leader in the best practices for installing and joining SIPs, so much so that we our team is working to guide the industry standards on installation of SIPS by SIPA (Structural Insulated Panel Association).
Integrity (make it right. Every time.)
Words and promises are cheap. What happens when things get difficult? We’ve been in this business for over 3 decades and we’ve built a reputation for excellence and integrity through that time. We do everything to make sure that things go smoothly and efficiently. On those very rare occasions when things “get interesting”—which can happen when building something out in the wild—that’s when you get the true measure of an organization. We stand by our work, from start to finish and on to what’s next. Integrity is making things right before, during, and after.
