In our view, the open-cell timber frame panel system is the UK's fastest-growing method of construction for many reasons, and could be seen as a far superior alternative to Sandwich Panels (what is typically known as a SIP).
Benfield ATT's Flexi-SIP system (based on the most popular Open-Cell Insulated Timber Frame Panel technology) has been seen by many as being superior to sandwich panel SIP systems, including recieving the following feedback:
- Increased design flexibility
- Save money
- Less problems on site
- Easier installation
- Completely 'dry' system
- Has been pre-tested to up to 6 Storeys
- Flexible acoustic and energy options
- Enhanced durability (with a 60-Year Structural Warranty)
- Carbon-neutral to the point of our factory gate
- Easy installation of plasterboard and service ducts
