InnoVida's Fiber Composite Panel System
InnoVida's Fiber Composite Panel System is a load bearing insulating panel system with structural skins made of high-strength E-Glass fiber fabrics impregnated with a fire-resistant polymeric epoxy resin and a core made of a construction foam material. The end result of this combination is that FCP construction is a stronger and better way to build.
The versatility of the material and the advanced technology applied allows the construction of a complete structure from foundation to roof. The building components include composite structural insulated panels that can be used to manufacture exterior walls, interior walls, beams, columns, profiles, and roofing. InnoVida's FCP's inherent characteristics make them a better building alternative.
Characteristics of InnoVida's Fiber Composite Panels:
Energy Efficient - High Thermal Resistance Value (R Value)
- InnoVida's FCP has an R-value of to 5.65 per inch with a total tested wall R-value of 14.6 for the 2.5 inch Panel and 23.7 for the 4 inch Panel.
- Reduced HVAC needs
Sustainability
- Waterproof and does not provide a food source for algae and mold.
- FCPs do not provide a living environment for termites or rodents.
- Hurricane resistant - Tested and approved for wind speeds above 155 mph.
- High Strength - A vertical compression load capacity of 10,000 lbs/sq ft and a horizontal compression load capacity of 400 lbs/sq ft.
- Fire resistant - The Panel skins will not support combustion.
- FCPs are resistant to corrosion resultant from chemicals such as sea salt.
Resource and Waste Reduction
- Reduced Framing – Do not require the use of steel, wood or concrete.
- No need for heavy machinery such as forklifts or cranes.
- Water and sewer access is not needed during construction processes.
- Reduced labor demands – One third faster than conventional building construction.
- Minimal production debris, avoiding environmental contamination and/ or clean up.
