Formance is New Zealand’s leading manufacturer of Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs), purpose-built for high-performance building envelopes. Manufactured in Christchurch using Oriented Strand Board (OSB) and Expanded Polystyrene (EPS), Formance panels deliver exceptional airtightness and thermal performance, two critical pillars of Passive House design.
With near-zero air leakage, no thermal bridging, and R-values well exceeding code minimum (including graphite-infused EPS options for even higher performance), Formance SIPs provide a proven pathway to Passive House certification. CodeMark certified to the New Zealand Building Code, panels arrive pre-fabricated and precision-cut, enabling faster, tighter builds with less on-site waste. Born in post-earthquake Christchurch, Formance is passionate about making warm, healthy, energy-efficient homes the standard across Aotearoa.
We’re Masons – a New Zealand owned family business that’s been part of the building industry for more than 25 years. We develop products and systems that help buildings perform at their best. We focus on the complete building envelope and how each component interacts with the next. Wraps, air barriers, fixings, tapes, cladding elements – everything works better when it works as a system.
Our goal is to reduce risk and remove guesswork so buildings perform the way they should. Over the years we’ve become known as trusted problem-solvers – the people you call when you want something explained clearly, when you need to understand how components connect, or simply want confidence you’re making the right call.
We’re here to help make building smarter, simpler and more reliable – with great products, great systems and great people.
Masons. Delivering products and systems to build smarter.
