SIPs Manufacturing

Big Sky R-Control SIPs produce custom-fabricated structural insulated panels combining engineered OSB and EPS insulation. These panels create airtight building envelopes that meet major code requirements while reducing energy loss through thermal bridging. Ideal for residential and commercial projects, they ensure compliance with LEED standards and offer a 20-year warranty for structural and thermal performance.

Energy-Efficient Building

Our SIPs deliver up to 50% energy savings by minimizing air leakage and thermal bridging. Designed for high-performance buildings, they lower heating and cooling costs while reducing carbon emissions. The panels pre-cut design simplifies HVAC sizing and contributes to LEED certification, making them ideal for eco-conscious owners seeking long-term operational efficiency.

Architect Support

Big Sky provides architects with technical resources, including code-compliant design specifications and LEED contribution guidance. Our team offers lunch-and-learn sessions, AIA CE credits, and detailed construction manuals to ensure seamless integration of SIPs into projects ranging from single-family homes to large-scale commercial developments.

Builder Training

Contractors receive comprehensive training on SIP installation, including electrical wiring techniques and sealant application. Our resources reduce labor requirements by 55% and minimize jobsite waste. With pre-cut panels and detailed AutoCAD drawings, builders achieve faster timelines and consistent quality across projects.

LEED Certification Assistance

Big Skys SIPs contribute to LEED credits for energy performance and material efficiency. We provide technical bulletins and case studies to support documentation for LEED Gold or Platinum certifications. Our panels environmental benefits, including recycled EPS and sustainably sourced OSB, align with green building goals.

BSI is an incredible company to work for. The owner is a very driven, fair and compassionate man with the highest integrity. I feel like a member of a real team full of team members who are driven to succeed. We all share a common goal to serve our clients to the best of our abilities while meeting or exceeding their expectations.

Just like many folks below I wish I to could write a positive review as their product is decent (definitely not the best, but.). However the customer service and support that myself and my customer received has left a lot to be desired. Looking at many of the reviews below the negative ones are all coming from the Colorado area. Maybe Big Sky will realize what they are missing out on by having sub-par customer service/support in a state that does large amounts of SIPs.

Like some of the reviewers below I too experienced that the lead times we have been quoted always took longer than they stated, panels didn't match up to each other, the eves were shorter than what was on the shop drawings, etc.

Awesome company we had a huge job that we ran short on materials with. They squeezed us in and deliver the materials the next day even though they had a full schedule just so we can get our job done. I would recommend these guys to anybody

As is with any construction project, there were problems and delays. The team a Big Sky addressed issues immediately and were proactive in fixing the issues in a very timely and professional manner. Love working with my rep at Big Sky. Cheers Loren.
