On Novemeber 12th, Davis Frame held its first Builder Day! About 25 custom home builders attended to tour our facilities to learn about Davis Frame timber frame homes and our new Structural Insulated Panel company, eSIPS. The builder workshop was developed to show custom home builders around the New England area how energy efficient our timber frame homes are! Also, we wanted to introduce our new SIPs panel system which can be used with timber frame homes, panelized homes and conventional homes.After the luncheon at the timber frame model home, the builders took a tour of our eSIPS facilities to see how our SIP panels are manufactured. The builders spent some time seeing how our detailed joinery is created with the Hundegger machine.

We had a great time meeting with our builder associates and hope we can establish relationships with the builders to recommend their services to our clients who are building timber frame homes or panelized homes in the New England area.
If you are a custom home builder and want to learn more about timber frame construction and our builder program, contact us today at 800-636-0993 to schedule a tour!

Nice job on the Esip. It is good to see someone making an effort to make a panel product more green. What percentage of the insulation is soy-based?
Thanks so much for your comment! eSIPS replaces about 15-25% of the petroleum that is typically used in a conventional SIP panel. The reason why the percentage range is not concrete is because the soy percentage varies as humidity, temperature and other environmental conditions can influence the how much soy is used in an eSIP panel.
