Door Representatives

As a door professional or specialist you are familiar with how conventional doors are made and promoted. Get ready for something new: Introducing a new technology in door core and manufacturing that is making a huge impact in the extremely high-end door market.

true-flat-doors-in-quantity-fast-delivery-coast-to-coast-compareIf you Google true flat doors you will see what the latest technologies are, and you might be surprised to find that Sing Core is leading the wave of this new generation of doors that can be true flat in any size (even extremely oversize), super strong, yet lightweight and Eco-friendly. Sing Core might be the perfect match for your discriminating clients/customers. Why not give them a better door that costs less?

What to Expect from a Sing Core Door

1.      Strength and Insulation

Sing Core doors offer a 10 year structure warranty. This is possible due to the extreme strength that is far superior when compared to other core materials (aviation industry cores rate at 10 to 110 PSI, yet Sing Core weighs-in at 660 PSI, crushing the competition). A 12,000 lb vehicle w/rubber tires cannot cause Sing Core to fail. Sing Core is about 10% of the weight of solid wood is based on patented wood torsion box and foam design that provides insulation and noise blocking.

2.      Fast Delivery, Any Size/Style & Fast Delivery

Sing Core can make any type of door in any style or size with window/light openings at very affordable pricing. Sing Core shines when it comes to oversize doors, because no other material can produce a door that is extremely large and lightweight, yet strong enough to remain true flat, warp and twist resistant. Each door is made in the USA which enables us to deliver rapid response and our factories excel at producing large quantities of doors in little time at reduced cost per door.

3.      Sing Core – Your Door Resource

We routinely make and ship doors servicing the best clients from coast to coast at competitive prices. We can make and ship fast, and also ship inexpensively because of the doors being so lightweight enabling us to actively export to other countries. In fact, we recently delivered a 700 door job for a client in Atlanta in less than 7 days to meet their deadline and expectations. Sing Core doors can feature any material, like, any wood species, aluminum, concrete, FRP, MDF, stainless steel and can be fire retardant or bullet-proof to meet your client’s expectations.

 true-flat-door-production-10-years-guaranteed-flat4.      Eco-friendly Door

Every step of our manufacturing process is ecologically comprehensive as we use less energy, use renewable and long-life materials to build Sing Core doors with little or no waste in the USA. We use formaldehyde-free adhesives and contents while meeting the most stringent tolerances for each door.

Lightweight MDF

Building materials such as plywood, MDF, particle board, LVL, Parallam and laminated beams are standard building materials that have been around for years. The newest technology on the forefront of evolutionary building materials includes honeycomb composite materials, like those used in the aircraft industry.

Introducing Lightweight MDF

lightweight-mdf-sing-panelsSing Core is raising the bar for composite building materials by combining the best technology with more traditional materials resulting in super hybrids, such as lightweight plywood, lightweight MDF, lightweight particle board, honeycomb plywood, honeycomb MDF and honeycomb particle board that all have superior structural strength.

Lightweight MDF Characteristics

Available in any size; – in any length, any width, any thickness

Lighter weight. Reduce the weight of not only MDF, but any building material by replacing its core with sing Core (which weighs little more than air). 4 x8 sheets easily managed by one person

Superior strength. Inserting and fusing sing Core to MDF or any other surface material greatly increases strength and structural integrity due to the patented foam-infused vertical wood grain torsion box design

Insulated. Pre-insulated Sing Core provides benefits such as R-values starting at R3 to R6.5 and up, sound-deadening qualities

Exterior material options. While MDF is a common exterior material for effective use of sandwiching Sing Core it can be fused with nearly any building material including aluminum, concrete, FRP, plywood or stainless steel just to name a few.

Eco-friendly. Manufactured in the USA with low-energy production, no toxic waste, formaldehyde-free glue, natural wood fiber torsion box and recycled foam

Longevity. In a world when most building materials are disposable, Sing Core outperforms any other building material and the resulting products can last centuries.

Lightweight Composite Technology

lightweight-mdf-bookshelvesSing Core composite materials are many times stronger than those used by Boeing and in Air Bus and are available to you at a fraction of the price. See our comparison table.

4 x 8 sheets of MDF are very heavy and difficult to manage on the table saw in millwork environments and can be associated with on-the-job injuries due to the weight issue, as well as on the construction site if using several people to move, manipulate or install the MDF product. Sing Core’s composite MDF is lightweight and combats the problems associated with MDF’s density. While MDF is an excellent building material it is simply too heavy for large applications or widths unless fused with Sing Core making it a more structurally sound and lightweight fiber board.

Imagine the possibilities of a single person being able to work with a couple of 4×8 sheets of MDF at a time, a material with almost endless applications matching your requirements and specifications including moisture resistant, fire retardant and even bullet-proof.

Take the Google Challenge

Google search lightweight panel, lightweight door core, lightweight furniture, and you will see how this new technology is impacting the manufacture of structural materials especially in terms of lightweight, high strength and Eco-friendliness.

Sing Core is isotropic (having identical values of a property in all directions) and adds superior strength to MDF materials that is bonded with making it easier to manage and adds strength to longer spans of MDF, where an unsupported MDF might fail without the patented vertical grain torsion box structure.

Now you can use Medium Density Fiberboard with confidence when infused with Sing Core. Eco-friendly Sing Core greatly enhances the structural integrity of the MDF without adding formaldehyde and reduces the overall weight of the MDF making it an extremely effective building material.

When it comes to composite materials, Sing Core’s Lightweight MDF is head and shoulders above the rest and competitively priced to gain wide acceptance by forward-thinking plywood distributors and millworks.

Introducing Sing Core to your customers and clients will increase customer satisfaction by giving them the technological and sustainable edge that helps to make the world a better place.
