OSB EPS SIPs are being applied in traditional construction method nearly 75 years ago. The first foam core SIPs were created in 1952.
Frank Lloyd Wright was exceptionally innovative and explored the idea of SIPs to incorporate beauty and simplicity into cost-effective homes.
Alden B. Dow, an architecture student of Frank Lloyd Wright, experimented further with the concept of structural panels. He had concerns about energy efficiency and was fearful over depleting natural recourses. Thus he sought to create a structural panel with an insulated core and is generally credited with creating the first structural insulated panel.
