Extreme Panel Technology's structurally insulated panels (SIPs) provide a level of strength, simplicity and efficiency no other building method can offer. Building with high performance SIPs provides the essential basis for any green structure- a well insulated building envelope. If you are interested in a green structure that reduces energy costs by up to 50-60%, minimizes your carbon footprint, and provides a more comfortable, healthier living environment you'll want to learn more about Extreme Panel Technologies and our unique and systematic approach to the building process.

Extreme Panel Technologies is pleased to announce that the Kenilworth home in Minneapolis, Minnesota was the winner of a national award at the SIPA (Structural Insulated Panel Association) national conference in April 2010. The house recently was certified LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Platinum by the U.S. Green Building Council, making it only the third residence in the state to receive that rating.

Extreme Panels provided 6.5" wall panels and 10.25" roof panels for the project. The low HERS index rating of 49 contributes to lower energy bills- one quarter of what they were in the previous

(less than 2000 square foot) home that existed on the lot. Without SIPs, the LEED Platinum rating would not have been attainable.

Other green features include three rain gardens, drought resistant turf and plants, operable skylights to allow cooling effect for natural airflow (reducing the need for airconditioning), dimmable fluorescent lighting, Energy Star appliances, low-flow showerheads and low-VOC paint.

According to the homeowner, "The SIP construction method offered solutions to many of our concerns, and has provided a stucture that is energy efficient, comfortable, and quiet. The building process was expedient, the structure is solid, sound, and well insulated; and we feel a certain degree of satisfaction knowing that our home was responsibly-built as well as comfortable and healthy to live in." -Owner of Kenilworth Bungalow
