ACME Panel is the greener choice for building with SIPs
| 1. |
We use renewable energy to produce strong, straight, and true structural insulated panels to build more energy effecient buildings and collectively reduce your carbon footprint. |
 |
| 2. |
SIPs are the fastest, easiest, and most cost effective technique for acquiring EARTHCRAFT, LEED, and Passive House certifications. |
| 3. |
Home builders can qualify for up to $2,000 in tax credits!
Available through the end of the year, visit the DSIRE website for more information. |

Here are some ways SIPs measure up against traditional stick-frame buildings:
- SIP-built structures are significantly more energy efficient.
- SIP buildings are stronger. Exhaustive laboratory testing has found them to be superior in both sheer resistance and tensile strength. SIP buildings are frequently found to be the only structures left standing after earthquakes, hurricanes, and tornadoes.
- SIP homes and buildings are significantly quieter. Studies have shown that a quieter home or office is a healthier place to be.
- SIP structures have reduced air infiltration. When ventilated properly, a SIP structure has superior indoor air quality.
- SIP buildings can be erected significantly faster. No other structural framing or insulating is necessary.
- SIP installation produces significantly less job site waste. Most of the small amount of waste that is produced can be recycled.

Building with ACME panels is a sound financial investment. When you factor in labor, waste hauling, and energy savings, SIP structures are comparable to traditionally built homes. In addition, SIP homes often have a higher value on the real estate market and often qualify for energy efficient mortgages.
