R-Control SIPs (Structural Insulated Panels) are a strong structural system
consisting of Perform Guard Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) insulation laminated
to oriented strand board (OSB) forming a structural panel. R-Control Structural Insulated Panels are
used for walls, roofs, and floors. They resist loads caused by wind, snow,
and seismic activity.
Build Faster
R-Control Structural Insulated Panels help you build faster. Labor time savings range from 30-40%.
The contractor's crew spends more time building and builds more in less
time. R-Control Structural Insulated Panels are available in sizes from 4'x8' to 8'x24'.
Design Options
R-Control Structural Insulated Panels offer unlimited design possibilities for both commercial and
residential applications. R-Control Structural Insulated Panels are a
proven performer for commercial structures, including office buildings,
schools, churches, apartments, strip malls, and community buildings. They
are especially cost-effective when optimum strength, comfort, performance,
and energy efficiency are demanded by the building owner, designer, and
builder.
Energy Efficiency
The test
A 4 1 / 2 " thick R-Control Structural Insulated Panel wall was tested against 2x4 and 2x6
traditionally framed walls. The R-Control Structural Insulated Panel significantly outperformed 2x4
stud walls and also outperformed thicker 2x6 stud walls. Results are
conclusive, 4 1 / 2 " R-Control Structural Insulated Panels have better whole wall R-value than 2x6
batt insulated construction.
Structural Integrity and Fire Performance
R-Control Structural Insulated Panels have passed structural and fire tests as prescribed by
national building code authorities. Load tests include transverse, vertical
compression, and racking shear loading. Fire tests include corner room burn
and fire exposure under load.
Treated To Resist Termites
R-Control incorporates a thick core of rigid Perform Guard EPS termite
resistant insulation. Perform Guard is made under a patented process which
uses a natural mineral that is formulated to resist termites and builds it
right into the insulation.
Quality Control and Warranty
Panels are factory made to exacting standards monitored by Underwriters
Laboratories Inc. and recognized by national codes and regulatory bodies.
R-Control offers a product warranty for R-Control Structural Insulated Panels ensuring structural
integrity, thermal performance, and termite resistance.
Environmental Advantages
R-Control EPS contains no CFCs, HCFCs,HFCs, or formaldehyde. It is inert,
non-nutritive, and highly stable. We encourage you to support recycling and
energy conservation.
