I am sensitive to chemicals since I was poisoned by a termiticide many years ago, and have retrofitted my home to accommodate my illness. I am researching moving, and having a home built for me. Does anyone know if there are any SIPS manufactured for the chemically sensitive? I am mostly concerned with the glues used in the wood products. Thanks.

Jeweiler,

Are you sensitive to polyurethane and painted galvanized steel?  If not, then consider metal SIPS - no formaldehyde or wood glue.
