Multi-Family Housing SIP Panels

High-Performance SIP Panels for Multi-Family and Workforce Housing

As demand grows for efficient, affordable housing, developers need smarter ways to build — without compromising speed or quality. At Enercept, we provide Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) engineered to simplify construction, reduce energy use, and accelerate your return on investment.

Whether you're developing rental housing, workforce residences, or student apartments, Enercept SIPs help you complete projects faster and operate them more efficiently from day one.

Faster Construction. Greater Returns.

Enercept SIPs combine framing, insulation, and sheathing into a single off-site manufactured panel — dramatically reducing build time and labor on site. The result? You reach occupancy sooner and boost NOI through long-term energy savings.

With Enercept SIPs, you can:

  • Shorten construction schedules

  • Reduce labor needs and weather delays

  • Minimize utility costs for tenants or owners

  • Meet or exceed code with fewer materials

  • Improve cash flow and investment performance

Ideal for build-to-hold strategies, SIP construction offers developers a faster path to stabilized income and long-term value.

Engineered for Compliance and Confidence

Enercept SIP systems meet the highest industry standards and are supported by licensed engineers in all 50 states. We work closely with designers and code officials to ensure every project stays on track and on code.

Our SIPs are:

Members of SIPA (Structural Insulated Panel Association)

IECC, IBC, and IRC compliant

ANSI performance tested

Designed to eliminate the need for additional rigid insulation

The result? A solid, efficient thermal envelope that meets today's building codes — and tomorrow’s expectations.

Proven SIP Performance You Can Count On

Backed by over 40 years of industry leadership, Enercept SIPs are trusted across North America for quality, durability, and performance.

Every panel features:

Built-in electrical chases (vertical + horizontal)

An EPS foam core for thermal efficiency

Factory-installed framing and OSB sheathing

Custom engineering for complex footprints or designs

Full third-party testing and code compliance

Panels are manufactured in a controlled environment to eliminate jobsite variables and deliver predictable outcomes.

What Our Multi-Family Housing Customers Say?​

Using SIPs greatly reduced the labor needed to erect this building. The building shell was easier to keep warm during the frigid North Dakota winter construction cycle. We were able to keep the entire building comfortable with just one 800,000 BTU Dry Heat unit. Previous non-SIP builds of this size required multiple heating units.

Only three months after installation of Enercept SIPs began in March, stainless tanks have been installed and wine production is underway. Although there is no HVAC system for air-conditioning/heating installed in the winery, it's still maintaining 72-degree temperature through May and June.

I have worked with multiple SIP manufacturers and multiple SIP systems. There was always something lacking. Finding the right SIP manufacturer was costly and time consuming. Luckily, I found Enercept! They are the only SIP manufacturer that I trust with my projects.

Bottom Line: Build Smarter, Finish Faster

Enercept SIPs offer a better way to build multi-family housing — combining speed, strength, and sustainability in one system. Compared to traditional framing, SIPs enhance every layer of your building envelope while maintaining design flexibility and delivering measurable results.
