With ThermaGREEN savings are significant with decreased labor costs and a relatively high speed of construction. The SIPS panels have been tested and found to exceed the load bearing capabilities of traditional stud and cladding systems by an impressive margin. The ThermaGREEN panels have exceptional load-bearing capabilities and can support loads of up to four floors. Our panels meet or exceed building codes (IAPMO, ICBO, BOCA, SBCCI, HUD, and SOUTH FLORIDA) and reduce the HVAC requirements. The excellent acoustical property of our panel reduces the amount of sound that passes between rooms. Panels can be clad with standard finishes.

ThermaGREEN panels have a sustainable "R" value for the life of the structure and energy costs are reduced by as much as 30%-50%. Our panels are termite, mold, and mildew resistant.

Using our system you reap the many benefits and advantages of using a SIPS system and still retain attractiveness of a traditional building.
