OUR COMMITMENT

Making Strides Toward Our Sustainability Targets

kingspan

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 10-year global sustainability program that sets several ambitious targets across four focus areas: carbon, energy, circularity and water. These targets will help Kingspan and our partners contribute to a clean energy future, manage the earth’s resources more sustainably and protect our natural environment.

Planet Passionate touches every aspect of Kingspan’s business, from our material suppliers and employees to our customers and the communities in which we work. We’re committed to working together to address the negative material impacts we have on our environment and community. By setting robust, specific targets like those outlined below and pursuing an accelerated pace for progress, we can make a significant difference on Kingspan’s environmental footprint and the behavior of the commercial construction sector. Planet Passionate is truly a pillar of Kingspan and is creating an important distinction for how we do business.
