SIPs panels are insulated building panels which have a core of rigid insulation between an exterior and interior skin. The Structurewall™ panels used in Winter Panel homes are manufactured by Winter Panel and have a 3-5/8″ core of polyurethane foam insulation, with oriented strand board (OSB) skins on both the interior and exterior. The two skins carry all the loading stress of the structure, while the foam core keeps the two skins aligned. Other thicknesses are available as well as Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) and Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) cores.
