SIPs Manufacturing Equipment

We supply MMC and SIPs manufacturing equipment – our partnership with Krauss Maffei and AutoRIM technologies ensures the full spectrum. From fully automated continuous lines to discontinuous panel technology. Therefore, we have hundreds of years of combined experience with our clients and partners. Our expertise and equipment are particularly applicable to Modern Methods of Construction, including SIPs panels. In addition, SIPs Off-Site manufacturing processes and equipment for residential, commercial and industrial buildings. We’re here to help and guide you to the suitable equipment for your needs.

SIPs buildings are more energy efficient and quieter. Furthermore, with the right know-how and machinery their manufacture is more cost-effective than older technology systems. Hence their popularity for both Full Wall, roof panels, Volumetric and Modular buildings over, for example, timber framing. As well as faster build, they give less air leakage, therefore, less drafts, fewer noise penetrations and significantly lower energy bills and CO2 emissions.

SIPs Manufacture

SIPs or Eco panels take the form of a rigid foam insulating core, sandwiched between two structural facings. The insulating core material is polyurethane (PUR), polyisocyanurate (PIR) or polystyrene (PS). Panels with a PUR/PIR core achieve the same U-value over a thinner cross-section than panels with PS core. In addition, PUR typically transmits about 40% less heat for a given thickness. For example, at a U-value of 0.02 W/m2K, a SIP wall using PUR is about 50mm thinner than one using PS. The difference of internal floor space or plotting efficiency is significant to some clients.

Ensure structural integrity with our advanced bonding technology. Our panels are designed to withstand structural loads, with the insulation core auto-adhesively bonded to the OSB facings for improved adhesion. Unlike other solutions that rely on glues used in a secondary process, our panels feature PUR foam that is injected in liquid form and expands to bond directly with the OSB under high pressure. This advanced approach sets us apart and guarantees reliable results.

From fascinating prologue to exciting present, SIPs give the brightest of futures for timber in construction as well as opportunity for all involved.*
