Like the kits on Green Modern Kits, our Green Cottage Kits homes are made with Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) which are stronger than traditional stick built- you can learn more here: www.sips.org. Upon each order, panels take about three weeks to fabricate, then ship.
Regarding R values, the R value for the 8 3/8” roof panels has an R-value of 29.3 when tested at 75 degrees F and a 31.6 when tested at 40 degrees F. The 6 5/8” wall panels have an R-value of 22.6 when tested at 75 degrees F and a 24.3 when tested at 40 degrees F. *If you need higher R values, we have thicker panels.
