Worldwide, there has been a tradition of the use of wood in building. It is the most widely used building material. Wood is easy to handle, a natural material and brings flexibility in design.
Today, many buildings are built with traditional timber frame structures and this trend will grow as Building Regulations / Standards strive for better U-values and the construction industry drives for more and more off-site manufacturing of buildings.
Structural Insulated Panel (SIP) technology is the next generation of timber based construction methods. It has seen rapid growth in North America in the construction of whole buildings and the growth of Structural Insulated Panel roofs has been equally so if not more rapid in Holland and other NW European countries.
The Kingspan TEK Haus Building System consists of Structural Insulated Panels connected with a unique jointing system, timber I-beams for intermediate floors, design services and structural calculation services. The Structural Insulated Panels are made up of two OSB 3 (Oriented Strand Board) boards with a zero Ozone Depletion Potential (zero ODP) rigid urethane insulation core. The OSB 3 boards are not bonded to the insulation in a secondary process. They are autohesively bonded to the rigid urethane insulation core during manufacture resulting in superior adhesive strength to the bond between the core and the OSB 3 boards.
This is a process which leads to premium structural properties. The proven combination of OSB 3 boards and the rigid urethane insulation core provides for the extreme resilience of Kingspan TEK Haus Structural Insulated Panels. Thanks to these properties, the Kingspan TEK Haus Building System gives a structure proven performance.
Kingspan TEK Haus Structural Insulated Panels are manufactured at our state-of–the-art production facility situated in Northern Germany.
