ArkiSIP Integrated Structural Insulated Steel Panel System

ArkiSIP Integrated Structural Insulated Steel Panel System

Integrated Prefabricated Building System — In Development: ArkiSIP coordinates structural insulated steel panels with Arkitor mineral exterior, interior, flooring, and finishing systems for project-specific modular and panelized construction.

Discuss an ArkiSIP project

For system concepts, project collaboration, samples, and development updates.

ArkiSIP is an integrated prefabricated building-system concept that coordinates structural insulated steel panels with Arkitor mineral exterior, interior, flooring, and finishing systems.

Designed for modular manufacturers, panelized builders, developers, and design teams, ArkiSIP brings structure, thermal insulation, mineral protection, and architectural finishing into one project-specific platform.

Development status: ArkiSIP is developed collaboratively for each project. Final structural, fire, thermal, moisture, acoustic, and code-performance claims require approved engineering, manufacturer documentation, and applicable assembly testing.

Potential applications

Where ArkiSIP can support off-site construction

A concise overview for modular manufacturers, panelized builders, developers, architects, and engineering teams evaluating integrated prefabricated assemblies.

Modular and volumetric buildings

Coordinated wall, floor, roof, and finish packages for factory-built housing, hospitality, workforce, and relocatable projects.

Panelized wall systems

Integrated structural, thermal, exterior-protection, and interior-lining concepts for repeatable manufacturing.

Multifamily and hospitality

Project-specific systems for apartments, hotels, student residences, senior housing, and workforce accommodation.

Institutional and community projects

Concept development for schools, clinics, remote-community facilities, and other repeatable building programs.

High-performance envelopes

Steel-faced insulated panels coordinated with mineral exterior protection and project-specific air, water, and vapour control.

Hybrid construction

Potential integration with cold-formed steel, mass timber, prefabricated floors, and insulated roof systems.

Typical assembly

One coordinated prefabricated system

ArkiSIP organizes the structural panel, mineral protection, interior lining, and architectural finish as a project-specific assembly.

Every configuration must be reviewed for the applicable climate, loads, fire strategy, moisture control, acoustics, transportation, installation, and code requirements.

Exploded ArkiSIP wall assembly with exterior mineral protection, structural insulated steel panel, interior lining, and architectural finish

Typical wall sequence

  1. 1

    Exterior finish and drainage plane

    Project-selected cladding or coating coordinated with the attachment, ventilation, air, and water-control strategy.

  2. 2

    ArkiShield mineral protection

    Exterior mineral board used as a protective layer, rainscreen substrate, cladding substrate, or selected roof component.

  3. 3

    Structural insulated steel panel

    Partner-supplied structural steel-faced insulated core providing the primary structural and thermal platform.

  4. 4

    ArkiCore interior lining

    Mineral interior wall or ceiling lining coordinated with project joints, services, attachments, fire strategy, and finishes.

  5. 5

    ArkiDecor and ArkiTrim options

    Optional factory-installed architectural surfaces and aluminum profiles for clean joints, corners, edges, and transitions.

  6. 6

    Engineering required

    Final structural capacities, spans, connections, lifting, transportation, and installation details require approved project engineering.

  7. 7

    Assembly validation

    Fire, thermal, air, water, vapour, acoustic, and code claims must be supported by the applicable complete assembly.

  8. 8

    Built collaboratively

    CCM supports modular manufacturers and project teams with system integration rather than competing as a complete modular-home manufacturer.

Why ArkiSIP

Designed around modern off-site construction

The value is in coordinating multiple building functions early—while keeping claims tied to approved engineering and applicable assembly testing.

1

Integrated system planning

Coordinates structure, insulation, exterior mineral protection, interior lining, and finishing as one project-specific platform.

2

Factory-controlled workflow

Supports repeatable fabrication and the potential to complete selected protection and finishing stages before site delivery.

3

Fewer site operations

Can reduce separate framing, insulation, sheathing, lining, and finishing steps when the approved assembly is designed accordingly.

4

Durable mineral layers

ArkiShield and ArkiCore provide mineral-based exterior and interior layers for demanding building applications.

5

Flexible architectural finishes

Can coordinate selected exterior claddings with ArkiDecor surfaces and ArkiTrim detailing.

6

Evidence-led development

Final performance and compliance statements remain conditional on manufacturer data, engineering, and assembly-specific validation.

The ArkiSIP platform

Multiple technologies. One coordinated system.

The structural insulated steel panel remains the primary structural and thermal core. Arkitor systems add project-specific exterior protection, interior lining, flooring, architectural surfaces, and finishing profiles.

ArkiSIP FAQ

System and project guidance

Clear answers about system scope, applications, development status, engineering, and collaboration.

SystemWhat is ArkiSIP?

ArkiSIP is an integrated prefabricated building-system concept that coordinates a partner-supplied structural insulated steel panel with Arkitor mineral exterior, interior, flooring, and finishing systems.

SystemDoes CCM manufacture the structural insulated steel panel?

ArkiSIP uses structural insulated steel panel technology supplied by an experienced manufacturing partner. CCM focuses on integrating that structural platform with Arkitor mineral building systems.

IntegrationIs ArkiSIP a conventional OSB-faced SIP?

No. The structural concept uses insulated steel facings rather than conventional OSB or plywood structural facings.

ApplicationsWhere could ArkiSIP be used?

Potential applications include modular housing, panelized wall systems, multifamily and hospitality projects, institutional facilities, floor cassettes, and insulated roof systems. Final suitability is project-specific.

IntegrationCan ArkiSIP reduce conventional drywall finishing?

In selected applications, ArkiCore or ArkiDecor may reduce conventional drywall-finishing stages. The final interior design depends on joints, fire strategy, acoustics, code requirements, and architectural expectations.

ValidationIs the complete ArkiSIP system already tested?

Individual components may have technical documentation, but each complete ArkiSIP wall, floor, or roof assembly requires the applicable engineering, technical review, and testing before project-specific claims are made.

CollaborationCan ArkiSIP be customized for a project?

Yes. Panel configuration, exterior protection, interior lining, finishes, trims, attachment methods, and interfaces can be developed around specific project requirements with the appropriate manufacturers and design professionals.
