SIPs are gaining much popularity nowadays. Why the sudden change? Inevitably, there is always a lag between the invention of a building technology, its subsequent development and improvement process, and its acceptance into the marketplace. As in the case of SIPs, this delay has expanded across many decades.
The lack of performance data can also hinder a products acceptance by consumers which can leave doubt as to a product’s safety and reliability. Moreover, consumers may not be able to easily access this information. If that wasn't enough, there is always resistance to change and a fear of using a non-mainstream technology.
Today, extensive testing shows that SIPs are a viable alternative building option. Indeed, SIPs are universally accepted by all building codes. To top it off, increased energy costs, heightened environmental concerns, negative anti-oil industry sentiment, and more globally conscious communities, have made SIPs a powerful alternative to conventional stick framing. Simply put: SIPs are the right material at the right time.
