Foam Core Wall Panel
A common choice is drywall.
Foam core wall panel. Every inch of foam equates to 7 2 in r value. We are also now offering hybrid insulation foam core insulated panels that equate to r 8 for every inch. When weight savings are critical strength is a requirement and quick delivery a must these foam core sandwich panels offer huge advantages over solid composite plates. The panels provide a continuous energy efficient surface.
When the finish materials are added the composite wall r value is r 47. Foam bonded to twill carbon fiber lightweight high stiffness great for aerospace and automotive applications. When necessary it is possible to use thicker panels or even assemblies of panels to achieve even higher r values. This custom fiberglass panel is a perfect sandwich for any insulated wall panel application.
Insulated foam sheets are also used as an insulated sheathing underlayment for exterior siding. All panels are reinforced with either 17 oz. When used in house construction structural insulated panels may make up the primary structural support these panels are strong. The most appealing feature of foam insulated panels is that they offer high r values with minimal thickness.

Extremely affordable when you use raycore sip wall panels you will be able to downsize your heating and cooling system reducing the cost and possibly saving as much as the cost of the panels. The strength of the sips come from the combination of these materials. Keep in mind that any interior rigid insulating panel must be covered by a barrier.
The most common structural insulated panel or sip panel sandwich panel sips consist of a foam core insulation material commonly polystyrene sandwiched between two sheets of osb and adhered with a glue. Follow with a 2x4 frame wall and insulate it with batt insulation. Core materials come in thicknesses from 1 2 to 4. A wall with two half inch 12 7 millimeters mm thick osb skins is nearly three times stronger than a conventional 2 4 inch 51 102 mm stud wall.
The two basic types of foam core panels are structural and non structural. We use 6 1 2 thick r 41 panels composed of a 5 1 2 polyurethane core sandwiched between two sheets of 1 2 osb. For example a 4 panel holds an r value of 28 8.
