Alternative to Aluminum Honeycomb Panel

Sing Core’s alternative to aluminum honeycomb panel. aluminum honeycomb panel is used as core material in a variety of applications such as facades, walls, floors, ceilings, roofs, inside doors and partitions. Aluminum honeycomb core also found inside workbenches, craft tables, laser cutting tables, and a wide range of other types of work surfaces, especially when there is a desire to reduce the weight of the end product.

Increasingly, Sing Core is replacing aluminum honeycomb core with its Sing HPL Sandwich Core.

Sing HPL Sandwich Core

Sing HPL Sandwich Core is far superior to any aluminum honeycomb core in the following areas:

1.  Strength-to-weight ratio

2.  Fully insulated

3 High precision

4. Longevity

5.  Eco-friendly

6.  Warp-free

7.  Low cost

Sing HPL Sandwich Core serves as base core in many industries including government, scientific, universities, military, space exploration, aeronautics, nautical, in submarines, public transportation, railways, corporate, and industrial warehousing, just to name a few.

1. Strength to Weight Ratio

Sing HPL Sandwich Core exceeds all expectations when it comes to strength vs. weight thanks to inventor Peter Sing’s patented and patent-pending technologies which are the foundation for the success of Sing’s core. Long ago, Sing coined the phrase,

“Heavy does not mean strong, and lightweight doesn’t have to be weak.”

Sing’s invention changed the way architects and engineers brought their creative endeavors and problem-solving solutions to life.

2. Fully Insulated

Sing HPL Sandwich Core is a key ingredient in breach proof impact doors, and other applications where sound proofing, refrigeration, defense, and separation is imperative. Due to the nature and construction of Sing’s HPL Sandwich Core, no effort needs to be made to achieve an acceptable degree of sound deadening or climate control.

3. High precision

When the attention to detail demands high precision, no core material is more precise or stable than Sing HPL Sandwich Core sporting an impressive .006-inch tolerance. This is why Sing HPL Sandwich Core is hands down the go-to solution for dead flat tables supplied by the best high-end millworks in America today.

4. Longevity

When it comes to composite cores, risk is assumed in the area of the lamination process which holds the various products together over time. Sing’s patented and patent pending technologies eliminate the risk of delamination over the life of the product in use. And even comes with a 50-year structure warranty which includes delamination, so you don’t have to worry about it.

5. Eco-friendly

Aluminum Honeycomb Panels are made offshore and imported for use in the USA. Why? Because the production process is so toxic to the environment that it would be nearly illegal to manufacture in the United States. Even so, we still share the same air and oceans with our neighbors outside our borders. This matters to Peter Sing who only uses USA-sourced and natural materials holding the highest standards for Eco-friendly manufacturing methods for a better world.

6. Warp-free

Sing HPL Sandwich Core is long-renowned as, “the only way” to create large, panelized structure materials that will not warp under strenuous conditions. Though note that Sing’s True Flat Team must be involved in the engineering and manufacturing of the project because many factors must be taken into consideration to create a warp-free product, such as size, skin type, location, and application. Still, the only 50-year warp-free guarantee in the industry, regardless of size.

7. Low Cost

With the rising cost of aluminum and other metals, Sing’s Sing HPL Sandwich Core is a value in comparison to other manufacturing methods. You can now achieve greater results without having to use any metal, and saving money that would otherwise be wasted on metallurgy.

Other Types of Core Materials

Sing HPL Sandwich Core is vastly in the process of becoming the replacement core of choice over other types of lightweight core materials such as paper honeycomb, and different kinds of urethane core, EPS core, wood-based core, such as particleboard, LVL, solid wood core, as well as aluminum honeycomb core to keep the working subject straight, flat, or lightweight over time without fail.

Sing MDF Composite

Going a step beyond the Sing HPL Sandwich Core, one of the most popular hybrid composite products in huge demand is Sing’s MDF Composite available in core or panelized with solid wood edges and implants. This has the embedded HPL for all the high performance results, plus it is topped with a super smooth 1/8” MDF for easy painting or lamination of nearly any material.

Try it. You’ll love it, just like the rest of our high-end clients who rely on its stability and beauty when finished.

Standardized Surplus Special

In an effort to help spread the news about Sing Core’s ability to make most anything better, we have a way that you can try some Sign Core out for yourself.

We have a limited stock of Sing HPL Sandwich Core on hand in standard sizes that is taking up valuable space in our warehouses, so you are welcomed to try it out to see what you think.

Available Sing HPL Sandwich Core Surplus Items

We have some excess stock of Sing HPL Sandwich Core in the following sizes

4×8 4×10 5×8 5×10 5×12

standard 1 1/2, 1 3/8, 2 1/4 thick

Our standard thickness is 1 ¾ inch right now. But any size you can special order.

Quantities are limited to what we have on-hand.

These materials would be perfect for projects of nominal size, such as 2 ft, 4 ft, 5 ft, less than 3×5’, 2×6’.

Of course, if you want all the positive results of Sing’s core guaranteed 100% without worry, custom order from us. We will make you a frame, as featured in Sing Panels. Which means they come with solid wood edge, with the reinforced structure inside to keep it straight. That is more expensive but is trouble-free for you, for your door company, especially if you are dealing with very large doors. Some doors 8 ft 10 ft tall by 25 ft wide or bigger. This is our niche.

Otherwise, you can use Sing Core in endless applications, such as: See Application List

Sing Core MDF Composite

This is one very basic, less expensive option, but if you want to be straight, with concern of warping, or telegraphing, would require an upgrade with special skin underlayment beneath the MDF skin on top of Sing Core.

This creates a either a core material or full panel with stable material on both sides with MDF skin for paint grade or cold press purposes. More stable translates to less chance of telegraphing, and designed for high-end precision and smoothness. The price is a little bit over than that of standard MDF-only skin.

But, if you want to do hot press, then you must take advantage of our special hot press process. That means you can accommodate the increased high temperature and high pressure without worrying about any telegraphing. This is the most expensive method for the most demanding clients.

Note: We normally have a minimum order of $4,000 and orders under that amount are assessed a $500 surcharge. During this event for these items only, we are reducing the surcharge to $100.

Plug-in to Sing’s Core Group

As you become a regular customer you can achieve platinum status at Sing Core which plugs you into Sing’s Core Group. That means you get regular updates and training in all the latest news and developments that are happening here at Sing Core.

Platinum members may also be eligible for elimination or reduction of rush fees, when in a hurry.

$10,000 Doors

Doors with Sing Core inside can sell for tens of thousands of dollars due to the high precision and high quality.

If you are in the Core Group, you will access to all the training and knowledge necessary to qualify you to make $10,000 doors, too. And we’ll show you how to use the glue applied to make it stronger to last. As a platinum member, you will be a well-informed in any new technology developed by us.

So, this is the best opportunity for you to contact us. So, that means we can establish something in long-term relationship in support of your creativity because Sing Core has endless applications.

You can create anything from a full exquisite home with all the bells and whistles to a high functioning tiny house. You can build replacing traditional lumber including components as post and beam.

There is no doubt that Sing Core is the most environmentally friendly material, not just as building material, but for longevity, lifespan, and the highest precision so that you can create the masterpiece demonstrating your strength as a creative woodworker.

Your skill combined with the invitation of what we can do, together we can change the world.

Seattle’s Symphony of Architecture and Design Center for the State of Washington

sing pivot doors in center for architecture design seattle with man doorsGreen building materials are the focus point of every architecture design now-a-days. As the home of the architect and design community for State of Washington, which is the leader in high tech and advanced materials playground for searching the planet for green, earth-friendly products is essential for this new home for all designers and architects.

In the temple of Seattle’s Center for Architecture & Design, the evergreen state sets the standard for promoting the highest standards of preserving our green earth among the Pacific Northwest architectural community while seeking out new ways to approach a more sustainable approach with building products that save energy and add longevity to the overall life of projects around our local communities and the world.

The idea of a local design center is not new, but the Seattle design center is the leading edge of this new technological approach to new office designs; bringing to life the idea of a multi-functional design combining office space, media, meeting and a gallery to promote green design permeating all areas of life and our society.

It all starts with the composer / architect of the project; with Ric Peterson’s design of Suyama Peterson Deguchi, while leading the team of the designer of the total project which includes a varied line up of suppliers, general manufacturers and fabricators to tackle the most challenging job to represent the state’s finest architects and designers. When all is said and done, the resulting space in this center represents the new philosophy and concept of engineering for a better world within the office space that has superior functionality as it is easy to maintain and built with the longest lasting building materials.

The symphony’s composer is Ric Peterson, FAIA of Suyama Peterson Deguchi was charged with the challenge of creating a design center work of art. The score is conducted by general contractor / conductor of the symphony, Krekow Jennings supervising all components while acquiring and arranging the performers (trade professionals such as sub contractors) participating in the creation of the newest chapter in executing the design by using green building materials made locally, produced with less energy and waste used throughout this project. The resulting masterpiece is a modern office, meeting room and gallery in a picturesque downtown location as a perfect showcase for professional trades and an inviting exposure to the general public. The whole job will not happen if without all the support from the donor of their trade skill to help such as painters did all the paint work for the furniture, and Schuchart/Dow craftsmen did all the assembly which basically started from patented Sing Panels, all in flat-pack which is easy and takes up less space for shipping to the job site avoiding damage during transport, and the end result is a new chapter of this ornate symphony of building art; simple, functional and elegant.
huge extreme edge pivot doors in seattle center for architecture design sing core

FAIA Mr. Peterson is a senior architect for Suyama Peterson Deguchi (SPD) responsible for providing the solutions to build the multi-function 4800 sq. ft. space by creating a gallery that could be converted to a conference room within minutes to hold secure meetings within the center itself. It needs a special pivot door when it open it is a large gallery, when those 4 doors closed it become a conference room. All the furniture, work tables, islands and counter tops are quickly and easily assembled on site

About the large pivot door: Mr. Ric was able to accomplish the door solution by teaming up with inventor, Peter Sing, whose lightweight, high strength building material made it all possible without the use of heavy equipment, lifts and cranes. After being invited to join the project, Sing offered to supply not only the doors but almost the rest of all the office furniture, partitions and even part of the dining table/work table and cabinets in the lunge and office areas – all made of patented Sing panels, same core materials to build those 4 large pivot doors.

About the large pivot doors: There are four 12 ft. x 10 ft. x 5 inch thick doors, It starts with patented Sing core as door panel each weighing around 500 pounds each for easy moving as shown at above pic. Each door was installed in less than a half an hour. These unique large extreme edge pivot doors were manufactured in Washington state using patented Sing Core as the embedded structural core material. those door had added two more layers of material on the job site to create sound deadening and fire retardant features, Even with his lightweight, high strength core material, the wall feels as though it is made of solid stone, when you knock on it. Two of the doors feature a built in man door for simple access when the area is secured as a conference room. Four doors are easily 12 ft. x 10 ft. 2,000 pound pivot doors by the time completed provide the conversion from gallery to conference room quickly and easily.

About the furnishings, desks, tables and partition walls: Office area are also with totally new design approach with new leading edge patented lightweight , high strength eco friendly Sing panels. all those office furniture are assembly on the site by use patented Sing panels all flat pack after paint by painters and hand carry to the designer center, some shelf / table top and partition wall are over 12 ft. in length. Each of the panels are designed to be able to be carried by one person.

Assembling office furniture from sing modular panels lightweight high strength seattle center architecture designThe features of the office and lounge areas are simple but elegant in the functional execution of the artist’s design concept. All the furniture features adjustable legs to maintain work surfaces at high precision instrument grade levels. Up to 8 foot clear span work areas are neat and clean while keeping all power and other cords neatly hidden from view by an embedded wire management channel system that is an effective design component within the work areas. Single piece partitions that span up to 12 feet provide privacy and security while standing flawlessly amidst the efficiently accurate space.

Not resorting to raised level work areas provides an effective approach to cleaning and maintenance of the floor space that is both easy and saves time. all the wiring are hidden within the desk top and shelf channels, instead build raise floor as most commercial office space which takes more space and more assembly time and lose more precious space.

Completing the symphonic work, Sing and his patented product “Sing Core” is joining the team of suppliers that is bringing the dream of Seattle’s design symphony to life.

Hearing about this project might cause you to wonder how an entire facility of this magnitude could be quickly and easily assembled out of multiple integrated modular panels. This is the first time such a grandiose project has been built completely of lightweight high strength panels that are not only sound deadening but are resistant to warp, bend or twist, even while covering long spans and featuring natural wood surfaces.

Thanks to Sing’s lightweight material, it took less than 2 hours to unload and install those huge pivot doors (weighing-in at only 500 lbs.) and three craftsmen assembled and installed all the office and lounge components and furniture. Sing Core it the new Eco-friendly building material that has helped to create the strongest most lightweight office furniture ever invented in the world, creating endless possibilities to provide architects, engineers and designers the ability to provide sustainable long-life office furniture and so much more…

The advantage Sing office furniture which furnish almost the entire design center space

1 Easy to clean floors (less table legs shelf supports to interrupt the cleaning process).
2 Easy wiring management (all wires are hidden in the channel between the partition wall and desk top).
3 Some areas designed with clear span of 10 ft. plus (the shelf top and the table top are at same level) providing more working surface and elegant work space.
4 Partition walls are made of a single piece large panel (without joining to separate entire work station, offers more privacy yet simple, elegant and functional).
5 Easy to assemble on the job site (entire office lounge area constructed of Sing Panels (each piece of furniture is flat packed and installed by Schuchart/Dow).

The advantage of pivot door / partition wall

1 Change the conference room to gallery within minutes.
2 Fire proof and sound deadening patented Sing pivoted door.
3 Man door on both sides of the entrance for easy access.
4 The lightweight and strength of Sing pivot doors enabled designers to add 1,500 lbs. of additional material without compromise.

Sing Along With American Made Lightweight Tables

Sing Along With American Made Lightweight Tables

By Damon Marturion

Using Sing Core technology, the structural integrity of any table can be magnified exponentially while remaining extremely lightweight.

Inventor, Peter Sing, says, “There is nothing like this in the world that is eco-friendly lightweight, strong and stronger than titanium; plus,” says Sing, “We help put American craftsmen back to work building products that are handmade in the USA and will last the test of time, while making the world a better place.”

I met with Mr. Sing in his international headquarters in McCleary, Washington. Many emerging technologies have been birthed in the Pacific Northwest and Sing’s, patented “Sing Core” is destined to provide a natural and bio-friendly alternative to existing building materials.

One of Peter Sing's Sing Core Tables

Mr. Sing gave me a tour through his warehouse where I viewed a variety of table designs. They covered the entire spectrum from industrial work-tables, to kitchen tables, desktop and coffee-tables. Pretty much, any kind of table you could think of.

Of course, Mr. Sing is enthusiastic about his own products but he really got my attention when he lifted the whole end of an eight foot table with one finger. I thought, “That doesn’t make sense… How’d he do that?” as if it were been some parlor-trick or something… Then he challenges me to try it… and sure enough, it was so lightweight that I could duplicate the demonstration with one finger.

Mr. Sing claimed that though extremely lightweight, that his sing core was stronger than titanium. Sing explains, “Compared to an average size of grid for honeycomb core made of aluminum, titanium and plastic that are less than 1/2 inches, keeping an adequate strength is an issue. Sing core’s internal structure is made of renewable natural wood veneer that is so strong that 2 x 2 inch grids of sing core reached 660 psi when tested by UW Civil Engineering Lab, proving that it is stronger than almost any available honeycomb core.” I thought this was an optimistic appraisal, until he crawled onto this 8 foot table that was only one-inch thick and laid on it as if he was going to take a nap. Then he asked me if I could witness any visible bowing of the table top beneath him. Sure enough, to my naked eye, the table top was perfectly straight.

Not being an engineer, I could not explain what my eyes were seeing, but it confused my reality of what seemed possible and/or my interpretation of the laws of physics as I understood them.

One of Peter Sing's Sing Core Collapsible Tables

Getting off of the table, he explained to me that while I was looking at tables covered in a variety of material, like Formica (HPL), natural woods and metal; his technology could be applied to any covering resulting in a lightweight, strong and long-lasting end product using no melamine or particle board. Examples included any surface material, “Like any kind of wood product, concrete, any stone – like granite – for instance, acrylics, glass, or even Kevlar for bullet-proof solutions.”

“Try to bend it,” Mr. Sing encourages me to bang, press and sit on the table to challenge its structural integrity, “You can’t. It’s too strong.”

Then turning his hand from horizontal to vertical, he said, “And any table top you see here can be turned to stand, like this, and it becomes a door,” with the same properties, just different hardware and packaging, “or any other thing. It’s the same core material.”

Mr. Sing said that his manufacturing facility was most famous for providing lightweight and “true flat” solutions for oversize doors. He said that this is a common problem for designers and architects as, “The reason most wood products fail is due to warping, twisting and cupping.

As we walked through a maze of assorted furniture, it was obvious to me that Peter Sing’s sing core could be used in nearly any consumer product, as well as structural applications; everything from cutting boards to bridges.

Then he hit me with his philanthropic dream of making the world a better place by putting the power of product design and manufacturing back in the hands of the average American who has (at least) basic woodworking skills. Sing says this is a, “New miracle revolution of true green technology.”

Lightweight-University_Logo

To this end, Mr. Sing has launched his, “Lightweight University,” where he trains and certifies pioneers (anyone from one-man operations to large, corporate manufacturing facilities) in the practical use of his sing core. He went on to say, “Every student, every draftsman, artist, designer or housewife can use sing core to create thousands of product applications if they attend Lightweight University , at least they could benefit by using products made of sing core in their daily lives.”

“Anyone can design,” sing core products, according to Sing. When people come to him with ideas, he empowers them with his technology, allowing them to create things that have never existed before; and if they so desire, supports them as they manufacture their designs and gain market share via Lightweight University (LWU).

Inventor, Peter Sing, says, “This should be in every house in America,” encouraging everyone to, “spread the news… tell your family and friends,” about sing core and his desire to put the power of manufacturing back, “in the hands of American craftsmen,” who can create high-quality, handmade creations that will last for lifetimes, while still being economical enough to compete with cheap (disposable) imports; returning pride to the phrase, “Made in the USA.”

Lightweight Green Patented Plywood Export to Asia

Monday, July 18, 2013    For Immediate Release

The first container of green patented plywood exported to Asia is the start of something new. Inventor, Peter Sing from McCleary, Washington, invites Americans to join his grass roots eco-revolution.

 

This might be the first container of a new, lightweight plywood manufactured in the United States of America’s Pacific Northwest exported and received in Bangkok, Thailand.

In a world where little is exported to Asia, especially in the way of wood products, like manufactured plywood because the end product can be manufactured more inexpensively outside the USA, it is interesting that one American company would find an open market in Asia.

SingCore-above-Bangkok-ThailandWhy would Asia import this particular product from the United States?

These finished panels are extremely unique and meet increasing demand for new manufacturing standards being adopted overseas and are now seeing the light of day in America.

The first concern is that the construction industry is seeking more eco-friendly, sustainable solutions for building projects.

In this case, one of the tallest buildings in Bangkok was seeking to find a solution that met the biologically sound agenda with superior strength. The solution to the problems faced by the Thai engineers was discovered using a simple Google search for “lightweight panel” solving not only the ecologically friendly problem, but was also extremely lightweight, super-strong and has a longer lifespan than similar plywood-type products.

The patented Sing Core honeycomb panels were manufactured under the guidelines and supervision of inventor, Peter Sing in McCleary, Washington, who also holds the patent on the Sing Core technology.

According to Inventor Sing, “Sing Core honeycomb panels are lighter weight than paper-core products; stronger than any material including titanium with the same size honeycomb grid for maximum compression; made using less energy and raw materials and less waste than any other similar materials; are manufactured from natural and recycled materials that are renewable and earth friendly… plus,” says Sing, “In a society that has become accustomed to most everything being inexpensive and disposable, we provide Sing Core as a solution that will last for centuries.”

While Asia has been accused recently of dumping plywood solutions (providing under cost in order to decimate the market) to the Americas, resulting in a mandatory 25% duty to offset their economic impact on domestic products, the American-made Sing Core solution is launching a grass roots revolution to return pride to the United States, while providing local jobs, supporting local communities and economies while reducing the greenhouse effect at home.

The unconventional strength is achieved by Sing’s patented design utilizing a vertical-grain wood honeycomb filled with a foam core, that when sandwiched between two laminates is 10-times the strength of traditional plywood solutions, maintaining straightness or flatness over a large span of material.

Sing-Core-Long-Carry-Bangkok-ThailandThis project represents less than a tenth of one percent of the solutions that Sing Core technology provides. Peter Sing says, “Sing Core can be used in thousands of applications from furniture manufacture to huge structural challenges. One practical application that we are known for in the USA is for large doors, because ours are so lightweight, stronger and more eco-friendly than anything pound-for-pound and maintain their integrity while lasting hundreds of years.

“We supply to the companies that build products for the President, Statesmen, Prime Ministers, Kings and the Pope, because,” Says Sing, “This is the only eco-friendly solution that solves all the problems of oversize integrity, strength, lightweight and will pass the test of time.” Although high-end clients are currently using this technology, Sing says he wants to bring it to every household stateside; then he plans to take his invention to the rest of the world.

Sing core is an improvement over existing wood components due to its use of less than 10% wood product with the grain perpendicular to the surface of each panel to form the honeycomb matrix sandwiched between two skins of any desired material; it is this design problem/solution that led to the development of his invention which Mr. Sing expects to be a common household name used to describe a new level of quality standard in manufactured products.

Sing Core technology can be applied to nearly any building material including (but not limited to) concrete, metals, fiberglass, plastics, even bulletproof skins can be used, like Kevlar.

Inventor, Peter Sings, wants to take his patented technology to the streets in a grass roots revolution to support working class America, as well as manufacturing facilities across the United States via his virtual training facility, “Lightweight University.” The intricacies and possibilities of Sing’s patented innovations can be shared on an equal platform by participating Americans, whom Sing regards as “consultants” rather than students.

The University is open to all Americans who want to help us build a more sustainable future while shoring up local economies. He says, “Of course the University is open to the manufacturers that we work with, but they are large corporations. My goal is to put this technology into the hands of the people, to put them to work so that they can support their families while making the world a better place.” In making his program available to, “everyone,” he is offering scholarships to those who might need a helping hand in embracing these technological advancements.

one-man-beam-carrySing explains, “I want to help the one-man operations, mom-and-pop shops and small businesses get back on a profitable track in life and help them achieve a better bottom line by producing products that are superior quality, at a lower base cost than conventional materials, including, scholarships, grants and subsidies for Sing Core for low-end solutions enabling them to compete with lower-quality inexpensive import products.”

What does it take to start up a Sing Core manufacturing facility? Peter Sing answers, “It’s easier than you think. We show you how to set up your manufacturing facility in less space than a single car garage, how to make your own Sing Press with our materials; and we even supply our students with Sing Core at their location on consignment. That means they only pay for the product that they use, as they use it, on demand.”

And it takes less time to learn this new green technology than you might think. Sing explains, “There is no need to go to school for four years to get a job. I can show you how to do this in two weeks, and I will even give you the material that you need to get started.”

Sing Sandwich Panel

Sandwich Panel

torsion box, sandwich panel, honeycomb panel, lightweight panel

Standard sandwich panels utilize an insulating foam core sandwiched in between two thin sheets of hard material.  However, this design offers very little strength and durability. Sandwich panels made by Sing Core are stronger, lighter, and more eco-friendly than these conventional panels because we replace the standard foam core with our patented vertical grain, natural veneer torsion box grid also known as the Sing Core.  For the consumer, this translates into a higher quality product at a fraction of the cost.

Insulated doors made with traditional sandwich panels are highly susceptible to dents and structural damage because of their weak foam core.  Doors made with our Sing Core sandwich panel technology can withstand much higher impacts resulting in little or no damage due to our unique core properties.  The University of Washington has confirmed that our doors can withstand pressure of up to 660 psi, as compared to the average sandwich panel which can only withstand 60-100 psi.

Going Green

Environment & Economy Friendly

How is Sing Core “Green”, and why is it the most earth-friendly way to use both natural and man-made materials?

LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) provides a “cradle to grave” measurement of a product’s environmental impacts from raw material extraction and manufacturing through distribution, use, maintenance, and disposal.  An obvious example is a coffee or tea cup made of Styrofoam compared to a coffee mug made of the same material but enclosed in a solid container.  Solo cups are only used once then disposed of after use, unnecessarily filling our landfills.  Imagine that the same Solo cup material put into a permanent coffee mug, could last ten years without being replaced.  Sing Core protects the foam inside durable wood frameworks.  LCA studies show that using wood is less harmful to the environment than steel or concrete in terms of embodied energy, global warming potential, air emissions, water emissions, and solid waste production. Sing Honeycomb core structure is made of 100% natural vertical grain wood veneer.  This sets us apart from our counterparts who use only paper, particle board, aluminum, and plastic. Here at Sing Core, environmentally friendly construction is our mission.

Green-eco-friendly-sing-coreLow Energy Production

Sing Core’s patented manufacturing process is the most efficient and economical way to make sandwich panels with a veneer torsion box core.  The materials used in Sing Core sandwich panels use low energy to produce.  The adhesive used in Sing Core panels is produced in a much more efficient way than the minerals for nails are mined. The veneer is made of scrap material from Washington mills and the foam core is 20% recycled.

Renewable

Sing Core’s structure is made of natural vertical grain wood veneer.  This sets us apart from our counterparts who make cores with particle board.  It requires energy to break wood down into pulp and reconstruct it into particle board.  Veneer uses the natural strength of the wood fiber.  Life Cycle Assessment studies show that using wood veneer is less harmful to the environment than steel or concrete in terms of embodied energy, global warming potential, air emissions, water emissions, and solid waste production.  Here at Sing Core, environmentally friendly construction is our mission.

Non-Toxic

The structural glue and finishing stains that we use are all non-toxic and formaldehyde free.

Recycled

Our foam core has a recycled content of 20% and is 100% recyclable.

Energy Saving

Insulated, draft-free sandwich panels save your heating costs Sing has a long term stable R-Value. Sing Core panels assemble and install quickly, saving you man power and time.

Long Lasting

Sing torsion box sandwich panels are warrantied for ten years*, but may last much longer. This means Sing Core products will not need replacement or disposal for many years, cutting down on the resources used to manufacture panels. The foam used in Sing Core panels comes with a 20-year thermal performance warranty, dimensional stability, compressive strength, and water resistant properties. See instructions for repair and recycling.

This is a Sing Core overhead garage door panel compared next to a typical steel overhead garage door panel. Same size and thickness but as you can see the steel panel buckles with only a few pounds put on it while the Sing Core panel holds almost all of Inventor Peter Sings weight without any problem.

Plank Method

 

Sing Honeycomb plank method doors are our most expensive doors. These doors look like solid wood, and can be any height and any width. These doors have thicker veneer than wood grain. These are formed by making separate planks, then connecting the planks separately.
