Aquentium Seeks Joint Venture Partners for Affordable Housing Projects in Europe

Perris, CA - (WORLD STOCK WIRE) - May 13, 2012 -- Aquentium, Inc. (OTCBB: AQNM) a manufacturer of afordable housing and Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) for residential and commercial buildings announced today that the company is seeking joint venture partners for affordable housing projects throughout Europe.

The Aquentium affordable homes are designed to built with SIPs. Structural insulated panels (or structural insulating panels), SIPs, are a composite building material. They consist of an insulating layer of rigid polymer foam sandwiched between two layers of structural board. The board can be sheet metal, plywood, cement or oriented strand board (OSB) and the foam either expanded polystyrene foam (EPS), extruded polystyrene foam (XPS) or polyurethane foam.

SIPs share the same structural properties as an I-beam or I-column. The rigid insulation core of the SIP acts as a web, while the OSB sheathing exhibits the same properties as the flanges. SIPs combine several components of conventional building, such as studs and joists, insulation, vapor barrier and air barrier. They can be used for many different applications, such as exterior wall, roof, floor and foundation systems.

SIP panels are approved for use in construction by ICC and the use of SIPs brings many benefits compared to a conventional framed building.

A well-built home using SIPs will have a tighter building envelope and the walls will have higher insulating properties, which leads to fewer drafts and a decrease in operating costs. Also, due to the standardized and all-in-one nature of SIPs, construction time can be less than a frame home, as well as requiring fewer tradesmen. The panels can be used as floor, wall, and roof, with the use of the panels as floors being of particular benefit when used above an uninsulated space below. As a result, the total life-cycle cost of a SIP-constructed building will, in general, be lower than a conventional framed one, some even get up to 40% lifetime savings. Whether this benefit is realized on total construction cost alone (materials and labor) appears to depend on the circumstances, including local labor conditions and the degree to which the building design is optimized for one or the other technology.
