Design with SIPs in mind
Elevate your construction designs with Preflex SIPs. Their versatility allows for innovative structures, including high ceilings and multi-story buildings up to four stories. With panels extending up to 16 feet, Preflex SIPs simplify the building process and provide a path to a more sustainable and energy efficient future for occupants.
Design Flexibility
Preflex SIPs allow architects to explore creative, open-concept designs without compromising structural integrity. Their lightweight yet strong construction supports larger spans and wide-open spaces, providing the flexibility to create unique and custom layouts. Whether designing for residential or commercial projects, SIPs enable a wide range of architectural possibilities.

Enhanced Structural Integrity
Preflex SIPs offer superior strength compared to traditional building materials, providing architects and engineers with a reliable structural solution. The panels are engineered for high durability, ensuring long-lasting performance. The integrated design of SIPs means less risk of warping, settling, or structural failure, offering a more resilient foundation for the entire building.

Superior Energy Efficiency
Preflex SIPs provide exceptional insulation with a solid core of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) sandwiched between two layers of Oriented Strand Board (OSB). This insulation reduces heat transfer, ensuring that buildings stay warmer in winter and cooler in summer. Architects and engineers can design energy-efficient structures that meet or exceed modern building codes while offering long-term savings on energy costs for occupants.

Reduced Environmental Impact
Preflex SIPs are an environmentally friendly building material. The use of sustainable resources and the reduced need for energy-intensive materials like traditional lumber makes them an eco-conscious choice. Additionally, the energy efficiency of SIPs contributes to lower long-term carbon footprints. Architects and engineers can incorporate green building practices into their projects, achieving sustainability goals while also potentially qualifying for government incentives and certifications like LEED.
Faster Construction Time
Preflex SIPs are prefabricated off-site, allowing for quicker on-site assembly. This reduces labor costs and speeds up the construction process, helping architects and engineers meet tight project timelines. With the elimination of many traditional framing steps, buildings can reach the dry-in phase up to 50% faster than conventional methods, resulting in quicker occupancy and revenue generation.
Improved Indoor Air Quality
The airtight construction provided by Preflex SIPs reduces the infiltration of pollutants, allergens, and moisture, significantly improving indoor air quality. Architects and engineers can design healthier living and working spaces that provide better comfort and well-being for occupants, ensuring a cleaner, more sustainable indoor environment.
