WELLYOUNG Exterior Wall SIPs replace traditional stud & batt insulation construction, creating a structural, highly energy-efficient building envelope.
Definition
What is SIPs?
Magnesium Structural Insulated Panels (SIPS) are an advanced method of construction offering excellent thermal performance, light-weight structural strength and time and cost saving benefits over traditional construction methods or systems. SIP panels are used in floors, walls and roofs for residential, commercial and educational applications, providing ecologically friendly and energy efficient buildings.

SIP Major Benefits
WELLYOUNG MgO SIP Structural Insulated Panels provide superior thermal performance, which will last the life span of the building. This is due to the solid core of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) or Extruded Polystyrene (XPS)
insulation throughout the structure which ensures that the building is heated evenly, remains free from cold spots and will benefit from reduced heating costs.
WELLYOUNG MgO SIP
Structural Insulated Panels offer extremely high thermal performance, the Polystyrene (EPS or XPS) core of rigid insulation and MGO achieves U-Values as low as 0.14 Watts per Meter Squared Kelvin (W/m²K) or better, making significant savings on your annual heating costs.
The insulation is integral to the WELLYOUNG MgO SIP Building System, and therefore eliminates the need and cost for insulation.
WELLYOUNG MgO SIP
SIP Building Systems do not require roof trusses, therefore providing an additional habitable room in the roof.
WELLYOUNG MgO SIP
Structural Insulated Panels create more internal floor space for the same external dimensions in comparison to masonry construction. This is because a SIP structure provides excellent strength and insulation in a smaller wall width.
A WELLYOUNG MgO SIP
home is environmentally friendly for several reasons. WELLYOUNG MgO SIP
Structural Insulated Panels are not made from timber and do not contribute to forest depletion. The polystyrene (EPS or XPS) core of insulation in the WELLYOUNG MgO SIP
Structural Insulated Panels is CFC/HCFC-free with zero Ozone Depletion Potential and has a Low Global Warming Potential (GWP). WELLYOUNG MgO SIP structural insulated panels are also very thermally efficient saving on heating/cooling costs and reducing the carbon footprint.
WELLYOUNG MgO SIP
Structural Insulated Panels are pre-engineered in a factory environment which results in less defects and wastage throughout the manufacturing and construction processes.
By using WELLYOUNG MgO SIP
Structural Insulated Panels, on-site construction time is dramatically reduced. The assembly of the building structure is typically measured in days rather than weeks or months.
External and internal follow on trades can start work sooner as the WELLYOUNG MgO SIP
Building System offers a weather-tight shell helping you complete your project faster. With a WELLYOUNG MgO SIP
Building System it is easier to predict project completion times as the system is relatively simple to erect and requires no wet trades or brick layers.
Using specialist in-house 3D CAD software, WELLYOUNG MgO SIP
Structural Insulated Panels can be designed to accommodate a wide variety of building applications.
A WELLYOUNG MgO SIP
home delivers a robust and solid feel compared to timber frame systems. This is achieved due to its solid core construction.
The poor air-tight qualities of other systems is a major cause of heat loss. In contrast, a WELLYOUNG MgO SIP
home provides a controllable indoor environment due to the superior air tight characteristics of the system.
WELLYOUNG MgO SIP
Structural Insulated Panels are joined together with a WELLYOUNG proprietary insulated connection system providing a continuous Polystyrene (EPS or XPS) core through the walls and roof of the building. This greatly improves the thermal efficiency of the building compared to timber frame and cavity insulation which is prone to slumping and mortar drops during the construction process. Additionally, the connection system provides significant thermal performance over other SIP panel systems.
No additional reinforcement is required to hang radiators and kitchen units.
