The Builder's Advantage
Win more jobs by differentiating yourself in the minds of the homebuyer. Most builders compete with other builders who build almost identical homes. Quality construction is important to the consumer. Many performance products such as insulation are invisible. Making them visible with displays and as part of the sales presentation will make a statement to your customer that your homes are different; better than the competition's. RAY-CORE SIPs ® are a standout! They're stronger and superiorly insulating. By using RAYCORE insulated wall panels and insulated roof panels, your customers will know that you are building a better home, a fortress for a lifetime, and that they will save money EVERY month for the lifetime of their home.
Become A SIPs Expert
The best way to succeed with homebuyers is to be genuinely knowledgeable and interested in their needs and wants. Today's consumer is educated and technical. High-performance, green and sustainable are terms that they will have on their wish list. It is important to them that their new home includes high performance materials and up-to-date building practices. They will know your stuff so you must too. Do your research and build with RAYCORE SIPs.
Build What Homeowners Want
In a study surveying over 11,335 homeowners throughout the US who built or purchased a newly constructed home the previous 9 years, home energy efficient features were the highest rated home design element of the study.

No Learning Curve - No Special Practices - If You Can Frame A House, You Can Build With RAYCORE Insulated Wall Panels and Insulated Roof Panels.
5 Easy Steps To Framing a Wall
- Construct all window and door openings using conventional framing methods, i.e. king/trimmer studs, RAYCORE's insulated headers.
- Lay out all panels and window/door openings for a given wall.
- Cut panels to fit against the openings and below the windows. Apply construction adhesive around all panel joints.
- Nail top and bottom plates into panels. This ties all components together.
- Stand the entire wall and nail bottom plate to floor and apply sheathing.
4 Easy Steps To Install Roof Panels
- Place roof panels perpendicular or parallel to rafter or trusses. Panels can be placed directly on top of rafters, trusses, decking or tongue & groove.
- Apply construction adhesive around all joints and seams of panel to seal, creating an airtight roof and tape seams
- Screw through integrated 2x’s into rafter or tongue & groove decking. RAYCORE recommends a minimum of 2” penetration per engineer's specs.
- Apply OSB/plywood sheathing directly to panel. *To vent the roof, attach sleepers/furring strips directly onto integrated structural members within panel running from soffit to ridge, then attach sheathing on sleepers.
