SIPs are Structural Insulated Panels that are a technology that helped to revolutionize the light construction building industry by using pre-panelized components to build entire structures.
Each Structural Insulated Panel (SIP) is manufactured featuring a foam core sandwiched between two OSB (Oriented Strand Board) skins. The thickness of each completed SIP starts at 4-to-6 inches and goes up from there.
SIPs are structurally stable, insulated and reduce construction labor costs.
While SIPs are being widely accepted in the home and green building community, a revolutionary, new patented design improves on the SIP concept significantly.
Homebuilders using SIPs for their exterior walls are now seeking out new alternatives for thinner but stronger internal components like walls, ceilings and floors made of Sing patented reinforced structural insulated panels.
Patented Reinforced Structural Insulated Panels (RSIP)
Inventor, Peter Sing, envisioned a fusion of old and new technologies into a hybrid composite building material that is the affordable Eco-friendly solution to limitations of traditional building materials challenging architects, designers and contractors today.
Sing’s patented design features an improved wood torsion box core that has been known by woodcraftsmen to offer strength and stability for centuries.
This newly invented core bonds wall-to-wall foam to fill the torsion box voids and exterior surface materials together creating a solid Eco-friendly composite that is lightweight and stronger than steel pound for pound.
Due to the built-in torsion box structure, much more structural strength can be achieved using less material, reducing the weight and thickness of Sing patented reinforced structural insulated panels.

Sing patented reinforced structural insulated panels start at ¾-to-1 inch in comparison to standard SIPs that start at 2-to-4 inches thick.
Sing Panels enable the builder to create designs that are frame-free because the built-in torsion box structure is more dimensionally stable than a standard stick-framed structure and they are pre-insulated for energy efficiency and sound deadening qualities.
Available in Sing Butcher Block
Sing Reinforced SIPs are available in nearly any flat surface material to meet or exceed your architectural specifications including our patented non-warping wood butcher block that could be used for almost anything. See: Butcher Block for ideas.
Super-strength
Sing patented reinforced structural insulated panels can have over 700 PSI compression strength in comparison to the standard foam used in SIPs which rates at about 15 PSI. There just is no comparison to Sing’s torsion-box-hybrid.
This superior strength enables Sing patented reinforced structural insulated panels to outperform other material and has already established a demand with high-end millworks for excellence in maintaining true flatness over long spans, as true flat doors or counter tops over 16 feet in length cannot be affordably lightweight, or straight over long spans, or resistant to warp, twist or rot without using patented Sing Core, which is structurally guaranteed for 10 years, is easy to repair and designed to last for lifetimes.
In fact, if your Sing patented reinforced structural insulated panel is damaged for any reason (even if it’s your fault) we will repair it to its original structural strength.
Sing patented reinforced structural insulated panels are so strong, in fact, that entire homes are built using them and they are also used in lightweight high-strength post and beam applications.
Super-thin
Sing patented reinforced structural insulated panels are so much thinner than other building materials because of the internal torsion box foam-filled frame structure. While SIPs rely on the exterior stress skin to supply the overall strength of each panel, Sing patented reinforced structural insulated panels have the strength built-in requiring very little from the external material, except to complete the torsion box construction.
For instance, standard SIPs have an exterior OSB skin of .50 inch thickness on either side of the foam core, while Sing patented reinforced structural insulated panels can have an HPL skin of .020 inch. That’s a savings of 96% in exterior materials, but still extremely strong. See comparison to other building materials.
Highly Customizable
Sing patented reinforced structural insulated panels can be built to your specifications. Whatever your specific requirements are for your project, Sing Core can create the exact panel(s) that you need to make your dream come true. This is why the most reputable architects and high-end millworks in the nation seek us out to solve their size/weight/strength challenges.
Many specifications can be customized to meet your needs, like:
- True flat (straight) and stay flat
- Length, width, thickness
- Weight reduction
- Surface materials
- Insulative R-value
- Insect resistant
- Sound-deadening STC rating
- Extreme weather exposure
- Waterproof
- Flame retardant
- Bullet and blast proof
In many cases, if your project is struggling against the problems associated with the limitations of traditional building materials, Sing Core may have the right Sing patented reinforced structural insulated panel solution to satisfy your expectations.
