Fischer Sips

Our focus is on the small to mid-size builder and general contractor. Because we are not set up for high volume production, we can adapt and change to meet your needs. We want to understand you and your business so we can grow together. We service a Regional market area extending from Florida to Texas, up the east coast into New York and our west as far as Kansas and Iowa. Feel free to give us a call and ask if we'll go where you want to build.

At FischerSIPS, we strive to offer innovative, green SIPS products at a competitive price. Aside from our SIPS panels, we offer a wide range of services that benefit our customers and builders with the hopes of making your experience with FischerSIPS as enjoyable as possible. We manufacture structural insulated panels for the roof or exterior wall of your residential, commercial, and log & timber framed structures. Our SIP panel home kits are the perfect green construction materials for smart building and sustainable living.

In 1986, Fred Fischer decided to build his own home with SIPS, and from there, FischerSIPS was born. In 1990, we joined together with a group of manufacturers and founded SIPA - The Structural Insulated Panel Association. Fred and his partner Scott Brian were builders as well as manufacturers, and used SIPS to build several condos and single family homes in Louisville. In 1993, they hired Damian Pataluna as a new salesman. The company continued to grow and became involved with commercial work, such as the dormitory roofs at Virginia Polytechnical Institute.

The type of insulation you choose can result in thousands of dollars saved in utility bills over the life of your home. Insulation is rated by R-Value, which measures a material's thermal resistance. Insulating materials with a higher R-Value correspond with increasingly better performance. However, studies have shown that determined R-Values have little correlation with how an insulating material actually performs in a non-SIP home. When taking into account factors such as cavity voids, wiring without compression, and paper facer stapled to studs, the actual R-Value decreases significantly.
