Large scale construction, whether it be commercial spaces, or multi-unit residential buildings is a lengthy process that often takes months or even years. With ICE Panels, you’ll be able to combine multiple time consuming construction steps into a simple, prefabricated solution. This innovative building product allows for faster completion as well as precision accuracy.
Let’s review 5 ways that ICE Panels accelerate your construction project:
ICE Panels provide a simplified construction process.
ICE Panels combine framing, insulation, and vapour barrier into one installation process on-site, versus multiple steps and product layers required with traditional building methods. To achieve the same thermal performance and airtightness, traditional construction methods may take several weeks or even months longer to reach the same completion. This shortened time frame equals savings in construction financing, and possibly extra revenue generated due to earlier occupancy.
ICE Panel building envelopes are closed in faster.
ICE Panels expedite your project close in, taking it through vulnerable stages substantially faster. Taking a building out of the elements and controlling the environment on-site will have a positive impact on quality control. There’s also less of a chance of vulnerable materials freezing or being damaged due to cold weather if working through the winter season. In addition to being protected from bad weather conditions, being closed in sooner will lower the chance of theft and break-ins.
ICE Panel projects offer unparalleled component coordination.
Greenstone creates a REVIT 3D model of every project, pre-fitting all intersecting geometry including components from other suppliers such as trusses, joists, beams, timbers, windows, and doors. In-house development of REVIT based modeling allows Greenstone to catch project complications long before any components are ever produced. This makes for extremely precise construction, where all components intersect accurately and follow the construction drawings as intended. This step frequently eliminates errors that could cost the customer thousands of dollars in unforeseen costs, and keeps the project timeline on track for completion.

ICE Panels help you work smarter, not harder.
ICE Panels are a lightweight building product that can often be installed without the use of heavy machinery, but rather with 2-3 crew members being able to lift and place each panel into place. This means your crew can work longer without burning out, and more senior members of the crew aren’t straining to lift heavy materials. ICE Panels are also labeled with clear markers making it easy to organize them on-site. Builders will often lay each panel flat near to where they will be erected to make for an easy installation process later on.
ICE Panels contribute to a cleaner jobsite.
The post processing that happens in the factory eliminates 99% of the waste from shipping to site. Rough openings are framed and angles are cut during manufacturing, reducing on-site modifications, therefore reducing on-site waste. This also results in less time spent cleaning the site and traveling to transfer sites, making your crew more productive during the work day.
That covers how building with ICE Panels will result in an accelerated completion of your buildings envelope. Build it faster, build it better with ICE Panels.
