Structural Panels by Better Building Products offer fast, easy installation when compared to traditional 2x4 construction. The panel also provides superior strength to a standard 2x4 wall system. Panels are manufactured in a solid frame fixture. This allows the inclusion of structural metal members, molded in splines, our special "Cam-Lock" closures, and the exterior skins.

The panels are injected under pressure with a two part urethane foam that expands and fills the core, bonding to the exterior skins. The bond between the foam and the structural members forms a solid, durable, efficient (R-29 for a 31/2" core), high strength building component with excellent fire safety characteristics. By comparison, 10" of fiberglass insulation or 6" of 1-lb. density EPS would equal this R value. Walls have an overall thickness of 4 1/2" with a 3 1/2" core, and come in a wide variety of sizes.

What makes PKB House different?
As a quick summary - Superior Walls is a precast concrete, fully insulated, premanufactured wall panel system, which we've used as our basement foundation walls. W. A. Brown's SIPTEX is a Structural Insulated Panel exterior wall system consisting of 3-1/2" of injected polyurethane insulation sandwiched between two skins of structural quality OSB. They provide an uninterrupted insulation value of R-30 in only 4-1/2" of thickness. (The layman reader should note that typical house insulation only provides an insulation value of R-11 between each studs = R-11 for 14.5" of every 16" of linear wall surface. And this only if the insulation is installed correctly - which in almost all residential construction is far from accurate.) These two systems will provide the majority of the exterior surfaces for the entire house - foundation, exterior wall, and roof plane - and will provide the two vital elements for high efficiency design; high insulation values and very low air infiltration rates.
