Structured to Make a Difference 

Structural strength, insulation and water-resistive barrier. Achieve all three and save one trip around the house thanks to STYROFOAM SIS™ Brand Structural Insulated Sheathing, the revolutionary three-in-one building material that offers:

• High R-value (R-3.0 at 0.5"; R-5.5 at 1"), helping meet high energy efficiency standards
• Code-compliant structural bracing, continuous insulation and water-resistive barrier for improved thermal and moisture performance of the wall
• Reduced energy consumption, which in turn reduces greenhouse gas emissions
• Resistance to moisture intrusion and air infiltration
• Reduced installation time, labor and material; eliminates the need for wood structural panels and housewrap, metal T-bracing or wood let-in bracing
