SCIP Panels

Structural Concrete Insulated Panels—SCIP—combine a rigid insulated foam core with welded steel wire mesh and reinforced concrete applied to both sides.

The panels can form exterior walls, structural interior walls, floors, roofs, and stair enclosures, creating one continuous, highly reinforced building shell.

The result is a strong, energy-efficient structure engineered for exceptional resistance to hurricanes, fire, moisture, pests, and everyday wear—without relying on traditional wood framing or concrete block construction.
