LOOK TO THE FUTURE BUILD WITH SIP PANELS

Thermally efficient, high performance SIP panels offer a greener and affordable solution for your construction projects
Operating from a 40,000 sq. ft production, showroom and training facility in Greater Manchester, PCL demonstrates that creating a quality product is key to success. Our highly durable Structural Insulated Panels( SIPs) are the most cost – effective construction solution on the Market.
FASTER PCL‘ Dry Build’ all our buildings in our factory., whether that be single or double storey extensions, flat roof Orangeries, houses or bungalows, habitable annexes or garden / office rooms for the garden, we have created a system that allows for fast installation. We prep all our panels and even dress them so there is little down time on site.
STRONGER Our panels are made up of two 11mm OSB / 3 sheaths sandwiching a PU( Polyurethane) core. Using a PU core means that the OSB / 3 sheaths are chemically bonded together producing a panel that is 3 times stronger than brick.
WARMER Our PU SIPs have a high-density polyurethane core creating a closed cell structure this give the SIP panels its phenomenally high insulation values. We‘ press’ various depth of SIP panel so can meet most thermal requirements. Our Extension Kitz Wall System will give you a‘ U’ Value of 0.15 finished with Brick Slips or Render, whilst a composite Cladding finish is 0.16. If it’ s a flat roof system that is required our Orangery Kitz flat roof will return 0.09‘ U’ Value. Both systems well below Building Regulation requirements for England, Scotland and Wales.
SMARTER The OSB / 3 facings are responsibly sourced and the PU insulation core has an ozone depletion potential( OPD) rating of zero and also has a low global warming potential( GWP). The high strength to weight ratio of SIP panels allows large sections of your building to be fitted at once, speeding up the time required on site. Offsite fabrication reduces waste and helps reduce embodied and transport energy.
