+44(0)1977520902 Website

Application

Structural insulated panels (SIPs) that can be used for all internal and external walls and roofs in domestic, industrial and commercial construction, including:

  • Residential: Self-build and multiplot developments.
  • Hotels and holiday resorts.
  • Commercial and industrial buildings.
  • Private education facilities and extensions.
  • Garden rooms and home extensions.

Description

Structural insulated panels (SIPs) by Hemsec, for thermally efficient constructions. The panels consist of internal and external skins of oriented strand board, Type 3 (OSB/3) to BS EN 300: 2006, with an insulation core of closed cell polyurethane (PUR).


Features and benefits:

  • BBA-certified.
  • Supports faster build times.
  • Can be used internally and externally.
  • Maximizes internal build space.
  • Good thermal U-values.
  • Industry leading airtightness.
  • A range of board configurations and sizes are available.


Consult manufacturer's literature for design load values dependent on the panel span.

Consult BBA certificate for detailed testing information.
