The Formance Cabin Kitset Range
When you're looking for more space at home, or on site, a kitset cabin, office or sleepout gives you all the room you need, fast & hassle-free.
The Formance Kitset Cabin Range is made from Formance Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs, or SIP panels), which are high-performing thermally efficient composite panels that consist of a sandwich of two layers of structural board with an insulating layer of foam in between.
Formance Cabins are supplied as flat-packed floor and roof panels, and prenailed wall sections, making them straightforward and quick to assemble. The pre-cut panel package does not include cladding, joinery or site works.
Our quality energy-efficient New Zealand-made Structural Insulated Panel kitset cabins are available to buy direct and are promptly delivered to you.
What are the benefits of a Formance Cabin?
Formance Panel R values are higher than batts - and the true performance is through the airtightness of the envelope and the integrity of the insulation within a panel over time will not be compromised in the same way batts are, through slumping or gaps. Airtightness also contributes to achieving the intended R-value as the performance of insulation relies on no air movement through it, air trapped within the EPS closed-cell insulation is the secret to its performance.
With increased insulation and airtightness levels the Formance system not only saves your power bill, but provides a building envelope that truly achieves the indoor climate you deserve.
