Become a more informed American Made shopper by reading our buying tips
The Tip is 'Ask manufacturers'

Some times I have run across an advertisement that implied a product was Made in USA but the product did not have the Made in USA label. Before I buy or put the product on my Made in USA list, I email the manufacturer and ask if their product is Made in USA. If they say yes I ask why their product is not labeled that way. Seldom will they tell me why but many times they will tell me every component that is Made in the USA and those that are not. I then make my decision about buying their product and put it on my list if they convince me.

History of SIPS: The first SIP structure was built in 1935 by the US Forest Products Laboratory. The introduction of an automated panel press and the energy price hikes in the 1970's, made the use of structural insulated panels or sandwich panels more prominent. Product performance and affordability were impacted by the introduction of oriented strand board (OSB) in 1981. Advancements have also SIP walls winter constructionbeen made in the technology of the adhesives used by SIP manufacturers.





Enercept SIPS ? The Builders' Choice



Faster Construction ? Structural Insulated Panels combine structural framing, insulation, and sheathing into one step. Because of this a can buildermen making some finishing cuts on a SIP panel frame more projects per year. Framing with SIPs is similar to framing with Tilt-up panels. A sill plate is installed, and the insulated panels are tilted into place and secured. All Enercept window and door openings are factory built, complete with 2x framing and headers. The fast enclosure system also extends your building season. We've had several builders quickly frame up a home in the dead of a South Dakota winter and spend the rest of the season finishing the interior.



Less Framing Labor ? The pre-built nature of the SIP system requires fewer framers. Today fewer people are choosing building trades as a career, if the trend continues the labor rate for framers will increase. Building with Enercept requires less on site labor ? saving you money. Enercept also provides on-site technical training for builders new to SIP construction and hands-on factory training for Enercept Independent Builders and Dealers.



Less job site waste ? Another benefit of using Structural Insulated Panels is the reduction of job site waste, reducing the cost of waste disposal. Wood products usually account for 35% of job site waste. However, the typical exterior framing waste of an Enercept home can be hauled off in a single 55 gallon container.



Less material theft ? Almost every builder has experienced job site material theft. It's much more difficult for panels to grow legs and walk off your job site than it is for lumber to disappear ? along with your profit margin.



Fully Customized ? SIPs also reduce the margin for framing errors. Each panel is numbered to correspond with a computerized CAD panel blueprint. With the Enercept system, all rough openings are cut and framed at the factory, including structural headers. Panels are built to the engineer's specs, taking the hassle and guesswork out of design and quality control on-site. Maintaining a consistent profit margin becomes easier with SIPs.



Superior Strength - Could your truss roof support the weight of a pickup truck?Truck parked on Enercept SIP Roof Stick-framing relies on the integrity of a multitude of connection points between 2x's and sheathing. With SIPs, loads are distributed across the entire panel due to the continuous bond between the sheathing and rigid insulation. A structural insulated panel can be compared to an I-beam, with the sheathing acting as flanges and the insulation as the web.



An Enercept home located in the Florida Gulf survived Hurricane Opal in 1995 and was used as a meeting facility for the county rescue team. The same Enercept home along with another in Central Florida also survived the hurricanes of 2004!
