Cesar and I hit the road recently to visit the SIPS Team USA plant in Bainbridge, George. SIPS Team USA is the exclusive provider of SIPs (Structural Insulated Panels) to Make It Right. We went to meet the team who constructs the SIPs we use in every Make It Right home and to learn more about how they are assembled and cut.
Make It Right sends the designs for each home we build to SIPS Team USA. Their CAD engineers evaluate the plans and dictate the specifications for each SIPS needed to construct the home. Then, each SIPS is custom-cut for every design. This approach ensures air-tight envelopes, which along with the insulating capacity of the SIPS themselves, helps to make Make It Right homes highly energy effective. Take a look at what we saw:
