Peter Sing

Job Titles:
  • Inventor and Founder of Sing Core
Inventor Peter Sing standing on a 13 ft. span warp-free metal panel 1-inch thick Inventor Peter Sing has been providing his patented and patent-pending warp-free building materials to industries, such as military, aerospace, construction, high-end millworks and door companies in panel or post and beam configurations. These configurations are stronger than steel pound for pound and are guaranteed not to fail for 50 years. Led by a dream, Peter Sing's invention of Sing Core combines his love of aeronautics with practical improvements in honeycomb panels that set him on a course to the new world and a journey which has spanned decades. Originally from Taiwan, Peter Sing was selected to study aerospace engineering and aviation technology in the USA. Following graduation specializing in electronics and instruments, Mr. Sing worked for a company that was contracted to build testing instruments for NASA. He then relocated to New Jersey to work with two aircraft instrument companies where he worked on aeronautic instrument projects. Sing's observations of the honeycomb materials used in aerospace combined with his youthful idea of creating a stronger lightweight building material inspired him to take his ideas to the drawing board. Prior to the invention of Sing Core, Sing acquired more than 30 patents. The intent of all of those inventions was to help build a better world. Peter Sing began to develop his insulated torsion box composite material, which satisfied his desire to create his revolutionary material. The only problem with his initial invention was that the process was too lengthy and costly to justify the end result. In order for his invention to appeal to end users, he knew that he would have to devise a method to build his product in mass quantity in a more cost effective manner. He started his own business to independently finance the pursuit of his life time dream, to be an inventor full time. By age 28 he reached his goal and became a full-time inventor and part-time businessman due to his entrepreneurial business success. Sing Log Homes began to spring up all over the United States until the economy took its toll on the log home housing market. It was this decline in the new construction of log homes that gave Peter the time to revisit his original idea of having a cost effective version of his insulated torsion box composite material that could potentially greatly impact various industries while making the world a better place. Mr. Sing focused on devising a method to manufacture his invention in easy to use panels, in an effort to offer a more effective building material in a standard format similar to traditional plywood and/or honeycomb panels without the energy expense and toxic waste of weaker aluminum honeycomb panels used in aerospace applications. Now that patented Sing Core was now available in a cost efficient format, calls came in from architects and millworks seeking a better way to build large doors, which were the bane of the industry as the heavy weight of large doors was insurmountable requiring expensive heavy duty hardware and high maintenance costs over time. Sing Core soon became the door core material of choice used in large doors, especially in doors over 7 ft. tall and 3 ft. wide. The large door market rapidly replaced Sing's former log home market, leading to the expansion of the factory to accommodate custom large doors for all industries in sizes up to 50 ft.
