Ultrapanel Building Technologies has announced an 'outstanding response' to its recent live build event to celebrate the launch of the company's next generation SIP system Ultrapanel. Set to redefine housing delivery, a full loadbearing Ultrapanel super-structure for a detached house was installed in a single day including a room in the roof.
Arriving onsite pre-fabricated, ready for rapid assembly by Ultrapanel's in-house installers, this approach reduces reliance on skilled labour. The accelerated process reduces construction timelines, delivering weathertight structures in days, not weeks.
Engineered for economic performance and designed to deliver high-quality new homes at scale, Ultrapanel delivers up to 8% cost savings over conventional open-panel timber frame systems.
BBA Certified and NHBC Accepts, Ultrapanel delivers verified fire, thermal and structural performance in one unitised patented panel.
Designed to meet the needs of today and the demands of tomorrow, the system, which has reached the finals of the Offsite Awards in the Product Innovation Category offers a faster, smarter and more sustainable way to build.
Gary Ramsay, Editor of Offsite Magazine, who attended the live demonstration, said: "Watching the Ultrapanel system go together in real time was genuinely impressive not just for the speed of assembly, but for the precision and simplicity of the process. This is exactly the kind of innovation the housing sector needs right now fast, efficient, and future-ready."
Meeting the demands of the Future Homes Standard and Building Safety Act, with interchangeable wall depths and insulation types, Ultrapanel can be designed to meet exacting building safety and fire performance standards. Combining structural support and insulation in a precision-engineered system, Ultrapanel eliminates the need for separate framing or insulation streamlining the process from manufacture to assembly.
Tristin Willis, Managing Director of Ultrapanel Building Technologies, said of the day: "The live build event was a pivotal moment for us a chance to demonstrate the true potential of our next generation Ultrapanel SIP system in a live, real-world setting.
"The engagement from senior technical and construction leaders was rewarding, we had dynamic discussions, thoughtful questions and overwhelmingly positive feedback. It is clear Ultrapanel is gaining serious momentum as a game-changer for faster, smarter homebuilding."
Ultrapanel Building Technologies worked with Cogent Consulting during the research, design and trial stages in the development of the Ultrapanel system. Cogent is a leading multi-disciplinary consultancy offering independent advice in the specialist field of offsite and industrialised construction.
Darren Richards, Managing Director for Cogent concluded: "Creating a solution that installs quickly, performs flawlessly and meets the demands of modern construction is a complex challenge and Ultrapanel Buildings Technologies has risen to it with impressive results."
