Founded in Kingscourt, Co. Cavan, Ireland in 1965, Kingspan began as a structural steel fabrication business before identifying an opportunity in the emerging market for factory-engineered building envelope components. The pivot to insulated panel manufacturing in the 1970s proved transformative — establishing the proprietary foam chemistry and continuous lamination processes that remain core to the business today.
Today, Kingspan's panel, insulation board, raised access floor and data/communications infrastructure divisions serve architects, contractors and building owners in more than 70 countries — with a consistent commitment to pushing thermal performance boundaries and reducing the environmental footprint of every product manufactured.

Every performance claim is independently tested and published. We do not use unpublished internal data to support customer specifications or product literature.
