All-in-One
Mega Panels –
The Next Generation of Construction.
Sheeting, joists, studs, trusses are
combined in one solid panel, up to
4’ x 24’ widths. With everything
built right in, panels are ready to
use, with no pre-framing required,
making installation simple and
faster. Electrical raceways are also
conveniently integrated.
Superior
Value.
Panels are
built in a state-of-the-art
manufacturing facility which
controls quality and costs. Although
per-panel costs are higher than
conventional materials, overall job
costs are significantly reduced by
eliminating multiple construction
steps and the additional labor to
complete them.

Good for the Environment.
Made
of wood products and
high-density expanded
polystyrene, all materials
can be recycled.
Sustainable practices are
used in manufacturing OSB
that include renewing wood
resources, respecting
forestry through
maintaining water quality,
wildlife habitats and soil
productivity and minimizing
and recycling waste. EPS is
recognized for its low
impact on the environment
in areas such as climate
change, stratospheric ozone
depletion, ecotoxicity and
fossil fuel depletion.

Good for your
Health.
Compared to
standard insulation
materials such as
fiberglass, ISO
foam and cellulose,
expanded
polystyrene (EPS)
is the Health Smart
choice. It is
solid, nonporous
and moisture
resistant,
preventing mold and
insect infestation.
Unlike fiberglass,
EPS will not
release carcinogens
through fiber
emissions that
carry the risk of
potentially serious
respiratory and
other health
conditions.
Compared to ISO
foam, EPS also will
not out gas toxins,
such as
formaldehyde. EPS
provides no danger
to humans during
manufacturing or in
handling during
construction. |

Green
- Saves Energy.
The
panel’s integrated EPS
insulation core creates a
100% thermal barrier,
effectively blocking
cold-air infiltration into
the home and heat transfer.
From the inside, your
conditioned air is blocked
from escaping. Both
functions provide
significant energy savings
without reduction of
performance over time.
A
coffee cup is only 1/16"
thick and you can hold water
in it that is over 200
degrees. Imagine the thermal
protection from a wall
96x
thicker!

Energy
Star Performance.
As one
of the best performing
insulators known, EPS is
made of material similar to
a Styrofoam cup – at just
1/16” your hand is protected
from 200-degree coffee. Our
standard 6” panel contains
EPS that is 96 times thicker
than a coffee cup for a 100%
thermal barrier, meeting
stringent Energy Star
standards. Our 8“ panel is
128 times thicker!

Excellent R-Values.
8”
roof panel: R-value 31.6
with a 100% thermal barrier;
6” wall and deck panel:
R-value 24.3 with a 100%
thermal barrier. Unlike
fiberglass, ISO foam and
cellulose, EPS won’t shrink,
absorb or retain moisture
which reduces R-values and
thermal performance. |
