Environmentally Aware
The demand for environmentally friendly construction products and practices, or green building, has accelerated in recent years. You can count on IPS for expert consultation and innovative products.
IPS products maintain their strength, structural integrity, color and weather resistance for twenty years or more and IPS offers warranties to guarantee this for our customers.
CABs are critical
to reducing air infiltration through the building envelope. |
IPS’ air infiltration resistance testing shows that the insulated metal panel system will not breathe easily when properly installed, providing for the separation of internal and external environments. IPS panels have been tested to meet common performance requirements for Continuous Air Barriers (CABs), which are being implemented into model energy efficiency codes throughout North America. CABs are critical to reducing air infiltration through the building envelope. Infiltration in buildings can have many negative consequences, including reduced thermal comfort, interference with the proper operation of mechanical ventilation systems, degraded indoor air quality and increased energy consumption.
Our exterior panel skins are rated Class A, which means they are noncombustible. Our insulated roof panels qualify for a Class SH hailstorm rating, which shows they will resist destruction in storm conditions and replacement will be limited if necessary at all.
Insulated metal panels are much more thermally efficient than a traditional insulated roof or wall system. This helps to reduce our overall dependence on fossil fuels and lowers operational costs for a building using IMPs. Additionally, the superior spanning and loading capabilities incorporated into the complete building design may reduce the amount of steel required for the building substructure.
Look to IPS to help meet today’s building demands.
