Simply Make the World A Better Place

make-the-world-a-better-place-lightweight-high-strength-sing-core-panelsSing Core has introduced leading edge technology that is truly a revolution in building materials. Providing this material to the world is in-line with Sing Core’s mission to make the world a better place for the earth and all creatures.

Patented Sing Core is the only Eco-friendly lightweight, high-strength building material that will bridge long spans without complex/heavy framing with minimal deflection under load and will not warp, bend or twist over time. This revolutionary composite comes in your choice of panels or posts and beams and is the only structural material that can be made to be true flat and guaranteed to stay flat for 50 years.

Sing Panels possess super-strength the secret of which relies in its simplicity and our commitment to not overcomplicate its simplicity in any details of this concept. How do we keep it so simple?

Simple Design

The structure of patented Sing Panels is simply a fusion of old-world technology and space-age technology and consists of four components, that when combined in the patented Sing process, result in the only affordable Eco-friendly lightweight high-strength building material in the world.

Traditional-Torsion-Box-Diagram1 – Wood Torsion Box Structure

Wood torsion box structure has been used by high-end woodworking craftsmen for thousands of years as the labor intensive solution for building lightweight tabletops, countertops, desks, etc… Due to the painstaking torsion box process, these products could only be afforded by the extreme elite.

Sing Core utilizes a torsion box core with an important improvement: by flipping the grain to run vertically, instead of horizontally, Mr. Sing’s process picks up a 400% PSI strength increase over standard torsion box structure… but there’s more…

2 – Recycled Foam

While wood torsion box is an excellent lightweight substrate with superior PSI strength, the nature of the torsion box design itself does not have the shear strength performance that is so illusive in high-end applications that require lightweight, high-strength and unparalleled shear strength.

honeycomb-panel-torsion-box-coreSing Core’s solution is to pack the torsion box voids wall-to-wall with recycled foam that creates a solid flat substrate surface to build upon. The weight is comparable to hollow core, paper core or foam core, because it is still only 8% natural wood fiber, packed with recycled foam which is 80% air.

The foam packing not only makes the surface solid and perfectly flat for outstanding shear strength but also imbues the structure with insulation and sound deadening qualities.

3 – Formaldehyde-free Adhesive

The Sing Core process includes using a high-end adhesive to bond all the material composites together. Though expensive, this formaldehyde-free glue perfectly fuses all the components into a solid piece that is waterproof and will not delaminate over time.

This special adhesive is used in an effort to support Mr. Sing’s commitment to build long-lasting products that will last for centuries (not filling landfills, like less expensive disposable items that we’ve become so accustom to these days).

Engineered-plywood-cutaway-exposing-vertical-grain-torsion-box-and-foam-insulation4 – Stress Skin

To complete the process, Mr. Sing adheres a lightweight plywood exterior surface material to seal the open ends of the torsion box resulting in a solid super-strong product (starting at 660 PSI as tested at Washington State University) that looks like a standard piece of plywood or post and beam (depending on the dimensions) and can be treated, sawed, cut or ripped just like any other lumber product without any additional tools or skills.

Solid edges and implants can be included or window/glass opening can be pre-cut based on your needs and/or requirements.

To make things even better, the exterior material (bonded stress skin) can be any flat building material – or combination of building material – to meet the demands of the architect or designer offering the ability to replace any heavy non-eco-friendly solid building material.

Simple Order Process

In keeping with Mr. Sing’s commitment to keep it simple, he has initiated a simple ordering process whereby anyone can obtain a price simply and easily using his free online price quote.

It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3

simple-order-lightweight-high-strength-panel-process-length-width-thickness1 – The length

How long does your table, window, door, post or beam need to be? Mr. Sing’s factory is tooled-up to manufacture panels, posts and beam in up to fifty-foot lengths.

2 – Width

Again, the Sing process can accommodate nearly any width (which on occasion does cause challenges for shipping particularly large components, but since this is what we specialize in, we can figure out the best way to deliver the end product to you).

3 – Thickness

Of all the possible variances, the thickness of Sing Core is suggested not to be less than one-half (and three-quarters is even better) of an inch to see the structural benefits vs. the cost. Standard thicknesses accommodate up to 8 inches, but could exceed that to meet your specifications.

Options in the ordering process may include alternate skin combinations/variations to achieve the performance results that you require for your challenging project.

Wood Storm Doors

Sing Core has the ability to provide extreme weather resistance in wooden storm doors by starting with the patented material invented by Peter Sing.  Everyone knows that it is impossible to use a solid wood door as a storm door because wood (due to its innate natural qualities) will bend, warp and twist.  This movement will cause the door to fail, either in the seal between the door and the frame or by compromise the protective coating of the beautiful wood storm door.

One small crack in either the surface or the seal could cause the loss of your home.  That’s why upscale hurricane-proof homes can feature Sing double storm doors or custom storm doors with the highest confidence that your investment is protected, leaving you safe and secure when storms start brewing, which also puts less pressure on federal emergency management.

Sing-Core-Hurricane-Door-Exterior-InteriorHurricane Doors*

Introduction of the Sing Hurricane Door* was an instant success, with its fiberglass exterior surface on the one side and beautiful wood (or any other flat building material) interior surface for unparalleled hurricane protection*, high performance, beauty and elegance.

Even though Sing hurricane doors come standard as French storm doors in their appearance, Sing Core has the ability to alter the design to duplicate the look and feel of any other kind of door regardless of being a tornado safe storm door or not.

It is this ability for any Sing Storm Door to look like any door – all you have to do is provide us with a picture – and we can match the appearance of a pre-existing door if it is a replacement, or your dream decorative storm doors that have our fans depending on us to go the extra mile.

So, whether you’re looking for hurricane panels, hurricane doors or even hurricane garage doors Peter Sing’s hurricane impact doors* will leave you feeling safe and secure when you need assurance most.

Stainless Steel Storm Doors

No More Warped Door

50 Year True Flat Replacement Doors

Copper Door

Copper Door

Building the most stable door is our specialty. With our patented true flat technology, Sing Core provides clients with insulated Eco-friendly lightweight high-strength doors that prevent wood warping doors. Often we are sought out for replacement doors to solve the problem of doors that fail following installation. Doors – especially exterior, large or special purpose doors – are prone to warping, bending, twisting or cupping.

Why Do Doors Warp?

So many things can contribute the failure or the success of your large door’s performance.

  • Size: Length, width, thickness
  • Skin: Some materials are more prone to warp than others
  • Core: The core material will affect the door’s overall performance
  • Environment: Exterior facing direction, weather, exposure to moisture and/or other conditions.

FREE CONSULTATION for your next large door project. You tell our non-warp experts your door’s specifications and expectations and they can provide you with the only non-warp solution guaranteed for 50 years.

What if you started with a Sing door instead of using it as a door replacement?

Only true flat wood front doors by Sing Core can be guaranteed to be flat and stay flat and stay solid for 50 years. Most foam-filled doors might be straight but need patented Sing Core structural grids to keep it strong and tough to avoid failure following impact or due to exposure. Creating a warp-free large door is a challenge for all door manufacturers because it is almost impossible to make a large door that will be straight and stay straight over time. That is, of course, until the invention of Sing Core.

How can you make the most stable door that can be guaranteed true flat for 50 years?

Sing Core has developed true flat technology that consists of three phases.

Sing-panels-lightweight-high-strength-honeycomb-core#1: Sing Core

The first phase is to start with patented Sing Core as the basis of your true flat door. Sing Core is a composite honeycomb material consisting of natural vertical wood grain torsion box where the voids are filled wall-to-wall with solid recycled foam material that is 90% air. The natural wood torsion box inner frame yields only 8% of this natural resource in comparison to a solid wood door. This provides the strongest Eco-friendly, lightweight door core that will not warp, bend or twist.

#2: Skin Selection

Maple-Cherry-Oak-VG-Fir-Walnut-Sing-CoreThe skin selection is matched to your desired appearance of the door. Do you desire a solid wood grain door? If so, what wood species? Besides wood, we can manufacture a Sing door to host any flat building material, including (but not limited to) aluminum, ceramic, concrete, glass, fiberglass (FRP), plastic, LVL, MDF, Mag-board, stainless steel, veneer, even more custom high-end surfaces like, Kevlar, etc…

Reinforced-Structural-Insulated-Panel-vs-Structural-Insulated-Panel-Sing-Core-vs-SIP#3: Performance Enhancement

Next, our true flat experts review the expected performance and usage of your door. Based on how you want your door to perform and under what conditions, our experts may incorporate additional stress skins to bond directly to the Sing Core base to match your desired outcome. How large are the dimensions of your door? Will your door be exposed to the elements? What extreme exposure, if any, will the door face? Will your door be used: Underwater, in temperature-controlled environments, as sound proofing, to prevent harm to persons or property, etc…?

Any Sing composite door can be guaranteed true flat for 50 years, while matching the appearance of:

Framed Stile and Rail Doors

Weatherproof Church Doors

Weatherproof Church Doors

Also called raised panel doors (when in reality it is not raised panel at all. The appearance of “raised panel” is obtained by graduated cutaways that compromises the integrity of the door). These doors are normally made of several different solid wood (or composite) pieces assembled by dowels or other connections.

True Raised Panel Doors

True Raised Panel Doors

The individual components, connectors and adjoining seams tend to move due to moisture, temperature change or with heavy use or vibration over time.

By examining the red door (left) you would never know that this wood Sing door was not stile and rail yet will last for centuries without fail even though exposed to the weather 100%. The appearance of this door perfectly replicates the appearance of the stile and rail doors that were replaced.

Flush Doors and/or Solid Wood Doors

wood-flush-doorSolid wood doors are a romantic and nostalgic nod to days gone by, but solid wood is well known for bending, warping and twisting due to the natural grain of the wood itself.

LVL is a heavy solid core that is more consistent than solid wood in terms of warp, bend and twist when used in wood doors but will often fail (especially in doors over 10 ft. tall) and once it does begin to move, cannot be stopped or straightened as it has no memory.

Foam Core Doors

Foam core doors such as most FRP door, metal door, etc… are lightweight but have no strength or structural integrity.

Almost any impact will compromise the door causing the door to weaken and/or delaminate, unless it incorporates patented Sing Core structure grid technology.

Break a Leg

Only Sing doors can take the abuse without running the risk of breaking or delaminating.

If you kick a door, it is likely to break; kick a Sing door and you will break your leg.

The Sing Secret

Sing-secret-to-lightweight-high-strength-door-technologyThe secret behind Sing Core’s success is not merely in the torsion box design (which has been used for hundreds of years) but in the orientation of the natural wood grain used to form the grids that are the basis of the internal structure for the patented non-warp base material enhanced by stiffening technology to counter-act potential warp.

In the past, torsion boxes were built with horizontal grain, that while running parallel will tend to fail by bending in harmony with the outer wood skin material. Sing Core flips this technology on its edge by contrasting the orientation of the wood grain to be perpendicular to the exterior wood grain resulting in many times the strength.

Previously solid Balsawood core has been used as door core with perpendicular oriented grain successfully but runs the risk of compromise or failure due to its natural characteristics that will also move due to moisture exposure, climate or temperature change. But it doesn’t stop there.

Next, inventor Peter Sing bonded recycled foam (which is a lightweight solid material consisting of mostly – 92% – air) wall-to-wall inside each void of the vertical grain torsion box grids for unsurpassed shear strength and solid core material throughout.

This is how patented Sing Core has accomplished nearly inconceivable strength in the lab (660 PSI, tested by University of Washington as stronger-than-steel pound-for-pound), yet still remaining lightweight.

All this combined with the Sing Composite Formula for specialized stress skin integration results in the only true flat doors that are built to last for centuries.
