The PLASTBAU SIP, made of flame-retardant Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) with embedded C-shaped zinc-coated steel reinforcing profiles, takes advantage of the structural integration of two materials: EPS and steel. This combination allows the use of very light insulated panels as structural building elements capable of supporting heavy loads on building sites.
Air barriers or vapor barriers are not required in PLASTBAU SIP buildings because properly sealed SIPs create a code-compliant air barrier with a permeability rating of less than 1.0 perm. A PLASTBAU SIP building envelope provides high levels of insulation and is extremely airtight, meaning the energy used to heat and cool a home can be reduced by up to 50 percent.
Great Flexibility of Use, Fast, Insulating and Economical
