SIPS Product
Building Greener
At R-Control, we are committed to providing the highest quality products and services. We're proud of our recycling achievements, and are committed to work harder for the protection of our environment.

The core product for all R-Control insulation systems is R-Control Expanded Polystyrene. EPS is a very unique material, having excellent insulating qualities. It is lightweight, strong and resilient, non-corrosive, and dimensionally stable.

Energy Savings and the Environment

R-Control EPS insulation systems reduce energy consumption. With energy savings comes environmental benefits. Specifically, the reduction of fossil fuels burned to create energy. By reducing our energy consumption, we reduce combustion by-products that lead to smog and contribute to global warming.

Save Emissions

A home built with EPS construction systems such as Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) or Insulated Concrete Forms (ICFs) can reduce enough energy consumption to eliminate 2-3 tons of CO2 emissions to our atmosphere per year when compared to a similar home built with 2x dimensional lumber. Over the life of a 30 year mortgage, the home built with R-Control EPS Building Systems can save our atmosphere 60-90 tons of carbon dioxide emissions.
