Builder Legacy and Technical Information
sips Industries Ltd was established in 2000 with the aim of providing a complete sips manufacturing and installation service to the building industry. They are now the longest established specialist sips company in the UK. Sips construction delivers unrivalled insulation and air tightness, which reduces energy costs over the building’s lifetime. A sips Home has minimal thermal bridging and delivers excellent air tightness, ensuring fewer drafts, materially lower energy bills and overall, a more energy efficient performance, than other forms of home construction.

In addition to lower energy bills, sips Homes positively impact on the environment with lower CO2 emissions due to the reduction in heat loss and manufacturing wastage. Sips Homes are precision engineered in Scotland, forming composite panels comprising bonded insulation (eps), water resistant oriented strand Board (osb) and timber studs, producing an incredibly strong and rigid building structure. This inherent strength allows homes to enjoy large open plan rooms and vaulted roofs, free of additional structure or support such as roof trusses. These features provide a feeling of space, grandeur and opulence, adding character to each home and are unique in the new build market.

The airtight homes are fitted with a mechanical ventilation and heat recovery system (mvhr) ensuring the air quality is constantly optimised in each home. Habitable rooms are provided with prewarmed fresh air and kitchens and bathrooms have air extracted on a continual basis. Heat is extracted from the air removed from the building and used to preheat the fresh air entering the building. The extracted air helps to remove germs, odours, stale air, pollens, pathogens, CO2 build ups and with a constant supply of fresh air, each home has an improved living and sleeping environment.

Sips Homes set new standards in home living and the environmentally friendly, low energy, thermal efficiency, airtight homes will reduce energy bills, positively impact on your living conditions and the environmental carbon impact.
