CIRCULARITY
Our vision is to deliver
circular solutions to
enable a circular
transition for the
construction sector.
g
Kingspan Data & Flooring
has been awarded the
prestigious Cradle to
Cradle certification
at Bronze level, based
on an impartial and
independent evaluation
of material health, material
reutilisation, renewable
energy, water stewardship
and social fairness.
g We recycled 65% of our waste in 2021 and
we continued our research into ways to
minimise waste. Recycling trials are ongoing
to investigate ways in which Kingspan factory
waste could be reutilised to add value to
other industries while helping us divert waste
from landfill.
g QuadCore™ warranty: To reflect Kingspan
commitment to hold responsibility for
the end-of-life stage of its products,
Kingspan Insulated Panels have upgraded
the QuadCore™ warranty to incorporate
premium lifetime service and maintenance
support, including an end of life take back
scheme, which will ensure that the materials
recovered are reused or recycled.

WATER
As a manufacturer of
solutions to harvest and
recycle water, we recognise
the need for future water
security and the protection
of our natural water systems.
g In 2021, we installed 7 rainwater harvesting
systems across our business, adding 8.6
million litres to our capacity. In total, we
harvested 20.6 million litres of rainwater
during the year.
g We are delighted to announce our
partnership with Seabin Project. Seabin
Project is the second clean-up project we’re
supporting. The sponsorship will result in
direct, measurable impact, with the Kingspan
sponsored Seabin unit estimated to collect
almost 1,300kg of marine debris annually.
g Kingspan continues to support the removal
of plastic waste from the Mediterranean
each year through the ECOALF Foundation’s
network of 2,600 fishermen in Spain. Our
aim is to incorporate as much as feasible,
of the ocean plastic recovered, into our
manufacturing processes. In 2021, 190 tonnes
of marine debris were collected by ECOALF
Foundation’s Upcycling the Ocean project
in Spain.
