What are structural insulated panels?
Structural insulated panels are advanced building materials used in walls, roofs, floors, and ceilings. Made of an insulating expanded polystyrene core sandwiched between two oriented strand board (OSB) facings, SIPs are lightweight, strong, and energy-efficient. Discover robust insulation for all kinds of construction projects.
Benefits of structural insulated panels
Energy efficiency
SIPs deliver superior thermal performance. These panels significantly reduce energy costs by maintaining consistent indoor temperatures and minimising heat loss.
Strength & durability
Constructed for exceptional structural strength and durability, SIPs are suitable for load-bearing applications, ensuring long-lasting performance.
Quicker construction
Prefabricated SIPs allow for faster on-site assembly and reduced labour costs, accelerating project timelines.
Versatility
SIPs are suitable for all kinds of building types, from residential homes and commercial buildings to industrial projects.
Sustainability
Made from recyclable materials, SIPs help lower a building’s carbon footprint. Their energy-saving properties and reduced construction waste further support green building initiatives.

Structural insulated panel FAQs
How are structural insulated panels made?
SIPs are typically made by bonding an insulating foam core between two structural facings under high pressure. This ensures uniform adhesion and superior strength.
Rigorous quality control ensures each panel meets industry standards for long-lasting performance.
What are the benefits of using structural insulated panels in construction?
SIPs offer numerous benefits, including superior energy efficiency, exceptional strength and durability, faster construction times, and versatility for various applications.
They also contribute to sustainable building practices thanks to their recyclable materials and energy-saving properties.
How do structural insulated panels improve energy efficiency in buildings?
SIPs have a high R-value, which means they provide excellent thermal resistance.
This helps maintain consistent indoor temperatures, reducing the need for heating and cooling and significantly lowering energy bills. Their airtight construction also minimises heat loss and drafts.
Are structural insulated panels suitable for all types of buildings?
Yes, SIPs are versatile and can be used in a wide range of building types, including residential homes, commercial buildings, industrial facilities, and even specialised applications like cool rooms.
They’re also adaptable to various designs and requirements, making them a popular choice for many construction projects.
How do I choose the right SIP for my space?
When selecting SIPs, consider the following:
- R-Value: Higher R-values provide better insulation.
- Load-bearing capacity: Ensure the panels meet your project’s structural requirements.
- Compatibility: Check compatibility with existing structures and materials.
- Supplier Reputation: Choose a reputable supplier with a proven track record, like Insulation Industries.
How are structural insulated panels installed?
SIPs are typically prefabricated and delivered to the construction site, where they can be quickly assembled. The installation process involves connecting the panels together with splines and applying sealants for an airtight fit.
For maximum performance and longevity, we strongly recommend calling in the professionals to install your panels. At Insulation Industries, we can install SIPs throughout Newcastle, NSW.
How much do structural insulated panels cost?
The cost of SIPs varies based on factors like the size and thickness of panels, the materials used and the complexity of your project.
While the initial cost might be higher than traditional materials, the long-term energy savings and reduced construction time can make SIPs a cost-effective option.
