Energy Efficient Structures

"Organic buildings are the strength and lightness of the spiders' spinning, buildings qualified by light, bred by native character to environment, married to the ground."
-Frank Lloyd Wright

Skyrocketing energy costs, a demand for environmental responsibility and vanishing natural resources worldwide are driving construction in a new direction.  Adhering high performance rigid foam insulation to oriented strand board (OSB) produces a remarkable engineered building component known as a Structural Insulated Panel or 'SIP'.  SIP structures offer a beautiful blend of remarkable energy efficiency, outstanding strength, consistent performance, responsible resource management and lowered project costs.


Natural and Renewable

“We are like tenant farmers chopping down the fence around our house for fuel when we should be using Nature’s inexhaustible sources of energy - sun, wind and tide[...]What a source of power! I hope we don’t have to wait until oil and coal run out before we tackle that.”
-Thomas Edison
