The construction and operation of buildings has a significant impact on the environment. It has been found that buildings account for 39% of the total energy consumption, and 38% of the carbon dioxide emissions in the USA. Green building uses less energy, reducing carbon dioxide emissions, which play an important role in combating climate change.

Buildings also use an enormous amount of natural resources to construct and operate. Green building uses these resources more efficiently, while minimizing pollution for a sustainable future.

SIPs are one of the most airtight and well insulated building systems available, making them an inherently green product. An airtight SIP building will use less energy to heat and cool. It is estimated that the construction of a 2,000sq. Ft. home using traditional materials will produce 7,000lbs of waste, SIPs have the ability to drastically reduce the waste generated during construction by using advanced optimization software and automated fabrication technology to ensure the most efficient use of materials.

The major components of SIPS take less energy and raw materials to produce compared to any other structural building systems, SIPS are fabricated in a controlled environment, allowing greater efficiency than site built framing. Timbre is possibly the only truly renewable building resource, Forrest Plantation schemes
typically replace two trees for everyone removed, young trees produce Oxygen and remove Co2 more than older trees.

SIPs are extremely resource efficient, they are manufactured using between 35 – 45% less timbre than traditional framing methods of construction.
