At Kingspan, our mission is to accelerate a net-zero emissions future-built environment with people and planet at its heart. Planet Passionate is our Group-wide environmental sustainability program that sets several ambitious targets across four focus areas: carbon, energy, circularity and water. These targets help Kingspan and our partners contribute to a clean energy future, manage the earth’s resources more sustainably and protect our natural environment.
Kingspan's 2024 Planet Passionate report demonstrates our most impactful year yet in advancing toward a net-zero emissions future. Building on our 2023 achievements, we expanded our environmental leadership across North America with remarkable results: a 13.5% reduction in Scope 1 & 2 emissions, 61.6% reduction in landfill waste, and 37.6% direct renewable energy use across our operations.
Our commitment to renewable energy reached a milestone with 100% of wholly-owned sites now equipped with solar PV systems, generating 2.6 GWh of clean energy. We also harvested 500,000 mega liters of rainwater and maintained our fleet with 92% electric vehicles. Beyond operational excellence, our Planet Passionate Communities program flourished, more than doubling community engagement events to 16 across six sites in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. These achievements reflect our dedication to innovation, integrity, and impact as we progress toward our 11 Planet Passionate goals across Our Four Focus Areas.
Throughout the year, we made strong progress toward our Planet Passionate goals, achieving ahead of schedule our target of recycling the equivalent of 1 billion PET bottles into our manufacturing processes annually. We’re delighted to celebrate this successful outcome of our circularity efforts!
Kingspan’s Planet Passionate initiative set a target to add solar PV systems to all our wholly owned facilities and achieve 60% direct renewable energy use by 2030. In 2024, solar PV installations at Kingspan locations around the world generated 39.8 GWh of solar energy. That’s enough energy to power over 3,600 American homes in a year.

Access to clean water is a basic human right. Because it remains critical for sustainable development, Kingspan is working to add infrastructure to harvest 26.4 million gallons of rainwater each year.
The construction industry is the largest consumer of raw manufacturing materials in the world. In 2024, Kingspan facilities around the world diverted 93% of waste from landfills, and we’re progressing toward our global target of zero company waste to landfills by 2030.
We’re supporting our local communities by implementing environmental and well-being projects. In 2024, Kingspan employees and their families around the world carried out more than 160 projects that helped to enrich life in their communities. Locally, our businesses are devoting their time and resources to support the places they call home.
