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.
