Planet Passionate: Kingspan targets net-zero manufacturing by 2030. Discover our roadmap →

Kingspan — Building a Net Zero World Since 1965

From a single manufacturing site in Co. Cavan, Ireland, Kingspan has grown into a global leader in high-performance insulation and building envelope systems — operating 24 manufacturing facilities across 70+ countries.

Precision Engineering Meets Environmental Responsibility

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.

Our Core Values Drive Every Decision

Innovation

Continuous R&D investment sustains a pipeline of new core formulations and system configurations that reset thermal performance benchmarks year on year.

Sustainability

Planet Passionate is not a marketing campaign — it is a legally committed programme with published science-based targets verified by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).

Integrity

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 We do not use unpublished internal data to support customer specifications or product literature.

Partnership

Dedicated specification engineers work alongside architects and contractors from early concept stage through completion and handover — not just during the sale.
