OFFSITE CONSTRUCTION
building a stronger, smarter, and more efficient future.
Offsite construction refers to the planning, design, fabrication, and assembly of building elements at a location other than the final installation site. This approach streamlines the construction process by allowing components to be manufactured in a controlled environment before being transported and assembled on-site.

There are several types of building methods that fall under offsite construction, including modular construction, volumetric construction, prefabricated mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) systems and hybrid systems that combine traditional and offsite techniques.
Where Precision Meets Progress.
Offsite construction meets high-performance polyiso insulation.
Polyiso continuous insulation is a rigid foam made from polyisocyanurate, a closed-cell and closed matrix foam. It provides continuous thermal resistance across a building’s exterior walls or as a high-performance cavity insulation, minimizing heat transfer and improving energy efficiency.
By integrating polyiso insulation into offsite construction, builders achieve greater accuracy, energy efficiency, and compliance with building codes while accelerating progress and reducing material waste.
Its superior performance and adaptability make it a preferred insulation choice for modern, high-performance offsite construction.
Meeting Standards. Exceeding Expectations.
Rmax® insulation products are designed and tested to meet code requirements, so builders can insulate with confidence, knowing standards will continuously be met.
Continuous Insulation
Energy codes often require continuous insulation to eliminate thermal breaks. Polyiso achieves the required R-values while using thinner insulation boards.
Air Barrier Material
Building codes often specify requirements for air barriers, including criteria for air permeance and continuity. Taped polyiso board seams create an effective air barrier that meets requirements.
Moisture resistant
Polyiso insulation is inherently resistant to moisture absorption, helping to maintain its thermal performance over time requirements.
fire resistant
Using insulation with excellent fire resistant properties like polyiso, is crucial for meeting building code requirements and contributing to a fire-safe building.
Innovative Process. modernized Solution.
Innovative Building Materials & Methods, Redefining Construction Possibilities
Offsite construction, characterized by its efficiency, speed, and quality, offers an innovative process for modern construction solution. When considering insulation options, polyiso is an ideal choice for offsite construction due to several key characteristics.
Space Optimization
Polyiso offers high thermal performance with minimal thickness, maximizing interior space in offsite construction where space optimization is crucial.
Fire Safety
Offsite construction may be subjected to more stringent fire safety requirements due to proximity to other structures; polyiso has time rated assemblies to meet these requirements.
Ease of installation
Polyiso is lightweight and easy to handle, facilitating efficient offsite construction, where speed and efficiency are essential.
Durable Protection
Polyiso boards are durable with a high compressive strength, which is important in offsite construction where modules may be transported and assembled multiple times.
Reduces Waste
Boards can be pre-cut off-site, eliminating on-site cutting - reducing construction waste, labor costs and construction time.
Sustainability
Polyiso reduces environmental impact with a high R-value per inch, allows for less volume of material produced & less job site trips - for the same square foot of wall.
