We believe the answers lie in challenging building industry traditions with innovation in advanced materials and digital technologies.
What defines us is our relentless pursuit for better building performance whilst being Planet Passionate in everything we do. Our commitment to sustainability is instilled at every level of Kingspan and at every step in the manufacturing process.
In developing our approach to sustainability we have built on materiality assessments conducted at a divisional level as well as incorporating guidelines from recognised associations such as the Sustainable Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), of which Kingspan is a signatory. Kingspan recognises that it has a responsibility as a business leader to contribute towards the achievement of the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
We recognise the vital importance of achieving this while: enhancing the safety and wellbeing of people in buildings; enabling the circular economy; and always delivering more performance and value.
We will be publishing our second Kingspan Planet Passionate report in March 2022 with more detail on how we contribute to the SDGs.
Kingspan is driven by a belief that advanced materials and methods of construction hold the answer to some of the great challenges that our planet and society face.
From products that insulate better while creating more internal space, to those that harness more natural daylight, we are dedicated to extending the limits of ultra-performance envelope design with a core focus on energy efficiency.
Increasingly our customers want solutions which not only enable them to preserve resources, but solutions which are also sourced and manufactured in a sustainable way.
In 2021, we chose to voluntarily update our existing science-based targets. These more progressive targets were approved by the Science-Based Initiative in June and classified our ambition as aligned with a 1.5°C future.
What has been achieved at Kingspan would not be possible without the people that work hard every day to drive the Group forward. A dynamic and motivated workforce is key to delivering against the future growth strategy of the business. For this reason, talent is at the heart of future planning at Kingspan. Our goal is to Attract, Retain and Develop.
Launching in March 2022, our comprehensive report is available here:
