Frequently Asked Questions

What is a 3D EPS / SCIP panel?

A 3D EPS / SCIP panel combines an expanded polystyrene insulation core with welded steel wire meshes connected through the core. After erection and reinforcement, both faces are covered with structural shotcrete or micro-concrete.

Is EPS only insulation, or is it part of the building system?

In this system, the EPS core provides insulation and spacing while the steel mesh, connectors and cementitious skins form the composite building element. Final structural performance depends on the approved design and detailing.

Can it be used for roofs and partitions?

Yes, depending on the selected panel type and structural design, EPS / SCIP systems can be used for external walls, partitions, roofs and selected floor or enclosure applications.

How fast is construction?

Speed depends on project size, access, labour, equipment and finishing requirements, but panel erection can reduce masonry work and accelerate the enclosure stage significantly.

Is shotcrete required?

Yes. Structural shotcrete or an approved cementitious covering forms the outer skins of the SCIP system. Proper mix, thickness, curing and workmanship are essential.

Can Swift EPS support only panel supply?

We can discuss panel supply, execution support or a broader project package depending on location, scope and project requirements.

What information is needed for a quotation?

Please send project location, built-up area, number of floors, drawings if available, required completion schedule and whether you need supply only or execution support.
