Foam Laminates of Vermont -- SIPs Manufacturer : Components Of A SIP

SIPs (Structural Insulated Panel) Manufacturer

Why are SIPs a green product?

Foam Laminates of Vermont uses OSB as the facings for our SIPs because they are environmentally friendly. These OSB SIPs are environmentally friendly because they typically contain softwoods such as poplar and aspen, which are fast growing trees harvested on a tree farm when they are young. This is important in a green society because the emphasis is on newer and faster producing trees which protect the old growth forests. As a result of this protection towards old growth hardwoods, OSB is generally referred to as a sustainable and renewable natural resource.

Foam Laminates of Vermont uses EPS foam as the insulating agent in our Structural insulated panels (SIPs) because they do not contain any Formaldehyde or C.F.C's: the disastrous compound responsible for ozone layer depletion.
