Trade receivables arise from a wide and varied customer base spread across various activities, end users and geographies, and as such
there is no significant concentration of credit risk. The Group’s credit risk management policy in relation to trade receivables involves
periodically assessing the financial reliability of customers, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors.
The utilisation of credit limits is regularly monitored and a significant element of credit risk is covered by credit insurance or other forms of
collateral such as letters of credit or bank guarantees.
At the year-end, the Group was carrying a receivables book of €1,022.9m (2020: €770.2m) expressed net of provision for default in
payment. This represents a net risk of 16% (2020: 15%) of sales. Of these net receivables, approximately 61% (2020: 60%) were covered
by credit insurance or other forms of collateral such as letter of credit and bank guarantees.
At 31 December, the exposure to credit risk for trade receivables by geographic region was as follows:
Western & Southern Europe*
Central & Northern Europe
Americas

At 31 December, the exposure to credit risk for trade receivables by customer type was as follows:
Insulated Panels customers
Insulation customers
Other customers
The Group uses an allowance matrix to measure Expected Credit Loss (ECL) of trade receivables from customers. The ECL simplified
approach has been adopted.
Loss rates are calculated using a roll rate method based on the probability of a receivable progressing through successive chains of nonpayment to write-off. The rates are calculated at a business unit level which reflects the risks associated with geographic region, age, mix
of customer relationship and type of product purchased. The identifiable loss pertaining to cash positions is immaterial.
