When Peter Sing, the inventor and founder of Sing Home, was a teenager he learned about the properties of the honeycomb structure from the aluminum honeycomb used in aircraft. It was very lightweight and high strength but was expensive to produce because of the energy consumed in the manufacturing process. Peter Sing worked to invent a honeycomb material that used renewable resources and had a low-energy consumption process to produce a low-cost, high-strength honeycomb building material. This is how a life time of invention started – and now, after 30+ < xml="true" ns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" prefix="st1" namespace="">U.S. patents, Sing Honeycomb Product have become the best of combination of natural materials and human ingenuity you will find on the market today.

 

Wood is next to earthen material as the most commonly used building material in the history of our planet. Grown naturally for millions of years, humans started to use wood in the construction of their shelters after they moved out from caves. For thousands of years our ancestors cut natural wood to build furniture, construct shelter and make implement to harvest food… then engineered wood products started to replace solid wood: laminated wood, plywood, chip-board, OSB(oriented strand board), and the list goes on…

The invention of the Sing Honeycomb process is based on very simple idea: it takes less wood fiber to provide the same strength and with a better insulation value – than solid wood. Take 100% of the wood fiber out of the solid wood and put back 10% of that wood fiber back integrated into vertically structured foam and arranged in geometrical shapes. The honeycomb core material is formed of a ¼ inch thin skin surrounding a naturally-based foam implanted with wood fibers.

 

It becomes the strongest lightweight low-cost material ever created with natural materials
