What are Structural Insulated Panels?
Structural insulated panels (SIPs) refer to high-performance and prefabricated lightweight building systems. They comprise an insulating foam core sandwiched between two structural facings, generally oriented strand boards (OSBs). They are manufactured through various materials, such as polyisocyanurate (PIR), polyurethane (PU), expanded polystyrene (EPS), and extruded polystyrene (XPS). They provide superior thermal performance, improved indoor air quality, sustainability, faster construction, and easy installation. They assist in enhancing stability, durability, flexibility, energy efficiency, and overall cost of production. Besides this, they aid in maintaining optimal temperatures with minimal energy requirements. As a result, SIPs are widely employed in manufacturing walls, floors, ceilings, and roofs in residential and commercial places around the world.
COVID-19 Impact:
The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak has caused a severe problem for the structural insulated panel industry and imposed unprecedented challenges on numerous countries. Various players in the industry had to temporarily slow down or shut down their manufacturing capacities due to the lockdown and stringent curfew norms across the globe. In addition to this, there was a reduction in the construction of several residential and commercial projects, and manufacturers had to postpone their activities due to the fear of widespread viruses. Also, they faced huge financial losses on account of the shortage of labor. Moreover, the lower-running production facilities caused a shortage of raw materials. Besides this, there was a sharp decline in the supply and demand of structural insulated panels due to the curfews on on-road movement, along with the reduced transportation and logistics facilities. Additionally, governing agencies of various countries imposed stringent rules and regulations on imports and exports or foreign trade of products due to the lockdown of international borders and social distancing norms. Apart from this, there was a delay in delivering goods on time to end-users, which created a decline in the structural insulated panels market. However, post-pandemic, the reopening of manufacturing plants, and the reduction in coronavirus cases resulted in the rising demand for structural insulated panels.
Structural Insulated Panels Market Trends:
At present, the rising utilization of SIPs in the healthcare industry for storing and transporting numerous medicines safely and efficiently represents one of the key factors supporting the growth of the market. Besides this, the growing demand for SIPs due to the increasing number of construction activities across the globe is positively influencing the market. Additionally, the rising employment of SIPs in cold storage and warehouses to store products at low temperatures and avoid wastage is contributing to the growth of the market. Apart from this, governing agencies of various countries are encouraging the adoption of green buildings and energy-efficient infrastructure around the world, which is propelling the growth of the market. In addition to this, the rising demand for cost-effective and environmentally friendly products among individuals across the globe is offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. Furthermore, the increasing adoption of SIPs in residential areas for maximizing energy efficiency is offering a favorable market outlook.
